What You'll Get

Phone and in-person scripts for the most common patient anxiety triggers — ready to print and keep at the front desk for any staff member to use.

The Prompt

Copy and paste this

Write short, empathetic phone scripts for a dental receptionist to use when a patient says: (1) "I'm terrified of needles", (2) "I haven't been to a dentist in years and I'm embarrassed", (3) "I had a really bad experience before", (4) "I'm afraid it will hurt". Each script should acknowledge their concern and reassure them without making promises.

Tips

Ask for an in-person version too — the language shifts slightly when you're face-to-face vs. on the phone, and both matter.
