Patients are given access to the Next Appointment Toolkit to support them after the RETURN conversation.
This toolkit is designed to:
- Reinforce what was discussed during the session
- Help patients prepare for their next stabilisation or follow-on appointment
- Support confidence and follow-through at home
The toolkit includes:
- Practical ideas for attending the dentist
- Reminders of strategies discussed during the session
- Access to videos and information via QR code
You can encourage patients to:
- Take the toolkit home
- Revisit it in their own time
- Use it to prepare for their next appointment
Even if a patient is not ready to act immediately, having the toolkit can support future readiness and reduce reliance on urgent care.
