Abstract

Motivational interviewing (MI) is a patient-centred, directive, therapeutic approach that supports patients' readiness to change by exploring their ambivalence about doing so. This increases the patients' motivation and helps them to commit to the process of change. In relation to dentistry, MI has been effectively used to: promote oral health behaviour; facilitate smoking cessation; and, alter health behaviours.
