    Treatment acceptance with male patients: How to codiagnose

    June 20, 2024
    For all our talk about codiagnosis, sometimes we leave out someone really important.
    David R. Rice, DDS, Chief editor

    It's June and we have some "man topics" to discuss on Gloves Off—because sometimes men struggle to proactively manage their health. It's a well-documented phenomenon, and a huge contributor to early mortality among men. For our first video, Dr. Rice and hygienist Amanda Hill discuss how you can use the model of codiagnosis to include someone who's often left out: the person in your chair! Find out how this can be especially effective when you're counseling male patients.
