Demonstrating the correct technique and having the patient demonstrate it back to the dentist is an effective way to engage a noncompliant patient and encourage them to follow the dentist's instructions. This method provides the patient with a clear, visual demonstration and allows for immediate feedback on their technique. Emphasizing negative information, telling the patient what the dentist would do in their position, and asking closed-ended questions are not effective techniques for encouraging compliance.
