Ep 122: How to Improve the Case Acceptance Rate in Your Practice (Part 3)

November 03, 2023 07:30 - 21 minutes - 19.7 MB

In Part 3 of this series, Dr. John Meis and Wendy Briggs are sharing the best technology to use to raise case acceptance in your practice. One of the most important pieces of case acceptance is educating patients and making concerns visual for them.

If dental offices can make these things visible to patients and improve their awareness of the problems, patients ...

July 12, 2023 07:30 - 17 minutes - 15.4 MB

Understanding and monitoring practice data is crucial for a dental office to succeed. If you don’t watch key numbers, you can’t see what’s really happening in the practice and you can’t make improvements. Many practice owners resist involving the team in analytics and financials because they’re worried about difficult money conversations and the risks involved with transparency. But interestingly, we found that when the whole team has a general understanding of practice economics, there is...
