Improving patients' compliance with the treatment of periodontitis: a controlled study of behavioural intervention

Abstract

The present data show that the behavioural education intervention is (a) more effective than a classical intervention based on information and training about prophylactic techniques and (b) that it is effective in bringing most patients to normal levels of PI. For clinical practice, it suggests that better results can be obtained if (a) patients are taught a correct representation about periodontitis and (b) patients' sense of self-efficacy is developed through their own direct experience, by observing the effects of their behaviour on periodontitis symptoms.

Similar results have been found by other individually tailored psychological interventions based on Social Cognitive Theory and MI [37][38][39] . The findings of the present study are in line with these recent studies that coaching intervention, based on MI, Social Cognitive Theory, and NLP has significantly greater impact on the reduction of clinical attachment loss scores compared with an education group.…”

Compliance with supportive periodontal therapy among patients with aggressive and chronic periodontitis

“…Philippot et al (22) suggested that disease representation has cognitive and emotional aspects, which are constructed through direct or vicarious experiences as well as from information received from the social environment and health professionals. This may also increase compliance among patients with aggressive periodontitis.…”
