Spanish Dental Phrase Guide for Professionals — Adult Chairside Communication Reference

Google Translate mid-appointment is not a workflow.

This phrase guide covers the Spanish you actually need during an appointment — not just greetings and scheduling, but the language you use while your hands are in someone’s mouth. Organised by clinical situation so you can find what you need in seconds.

Covers five situations: procedural narration, patient reassurance and discomfort management, gag reflex management, positioning and cooperation, and post-op verbal instructions. Spanish in bold, English alongside for reference.

What’s included:

• 40+ adult chairside phrases in Spanish with English translations
• Organised by clinical situation: procedural narration, reassurance, gag reflex, positioning, post-op
• Bold target language, English alongside — readable at speed

For dental professionals working with Spanish-speaking patients or planning to practise in a Spanish-speaking country.
