The 180 Degree Dental Journey: Part Six: Million Dollar Hygiene and Transitions
The 180 Degree Dental Journey: Part Six: Million Dollar Hygiene and Transitions is organized by Dentaltown, L.L.C.
Released: 7/23/2014
Expiration Date: 6/30/2025
Overview:
The practice of "hygiene" is a science that will lead to increased profitability and growth. Your staff and your hygienist in particular set the stage for successful case presentations, bonding with the practice, and repeat business. We will cover the scripts, actions, and systems that make hygiene a profit center rather than a loss leader for your practice. With this growth you will need to know how and when to add more staff and doctors to meet the increased need and growth of your practice. Few doctors know how to successfully structure associates and buy-ins to maintain growth. You will learn how the very best do this.
You will learn how to transform the hygiene department into an integral growth machine for your practice. Your stress from high hygiene turnover and mediocre production will disappear. You will actually have all the tools to ramp up hygiene by using the marketing tools we gave you in the fifth module on marketing. Patients bond to office because of hygiene and you will learn the tricks of my multimillion dollar practice that allowed us to process over 250 new patients a month, maintain an overhead of 50-54%, while maintaining a 20% growth per year for 34 years through the addition of doctors and more hygienists. The second part of this course covers how a successful transition takes place in a growing practice. Information for the young dentist looking to join a practice as an associate or owner as well as details for the experienced practice owner looking to either expand or sell the practice are covered thoroughly. This is part 6 of a six part series that as a whole gives you every step to thrive in Dentistry in any location or economy.
