What if the most fulfilling, profitable version of your surgical career was just a few strategic shifts away? In this episode, Dr. Grant Stuck welcomes back Dr. Roger Levin, Founder and CEO of Levin Group, to break down the Practice Career Cycle, a four-level framework that shows how oral surgeons evolve in their careers, and why most never make it to the most rewarding stage: Level 4. Dr. Levin shares why Level 3, the stage of maximum work, often becomes a trap and how Level 4 offers a path to greater efficiency, higher profits, and more enjoyment. He also explains how delegation, leadership, and having the right office manager can transform your day-to-day experience and long-term outcomes. If you're feeling stuck, overworked, or simply curious about what's possible, this episode offers a clear and inspiring roadmap to a better practice (and a better life)!Key Points From This Episode:Insight into the four-level framework that defines a surgeon's career.The first three levels: from getting started to building competence to maximum work.Warning signs of burnout and stagnation (and how to overcome them).The hidden costs of not marketing consistently.Reasons that most office managers aren't equipped to lead.What it looks like to do only what you excel at.The “post-it test” and how delegation is the key to profitability and freedom.Viewing your office manager as the COO: hiring, training, and decision-making.Imagining a practice that runs without you running it.Ways that income reflects operational efficiency (and how to make it count!)Building a team and culture that empowers you to perform at your highest level.Customer service and relying on a team of experts as key traits of Level 4 surgeons.The value of continuous education and mastering the skill of learning itself.Actionable strategies and practical tips to help you advance to Level 4.Links Mentioned in Today's Episode:Dr. Roger Levin on LinkedIn — https://www.linkedin.com/in/roger-levin-69ab744/Levin Group — https://levingroup.com/American Association of Dental Office Management — https://www.dentalmanagers.com/Harvard Business Review Newsletters — https://hbr.org/email-newslettersThe Dichotomy of Leadership — https://www.amazon.com/dp/1250195772Everyday Oral Surgery Website — https://www.everydayoralsurgery.com/ Everyday Oral Surgery on Instagram — https://www.instagram.com/everydayoralsurgery/ Everyday Oral Surgery on Facebook — https://www.facebook.com/EverydayOralSurgery/Dr. Grant Stucki Email — grantstucki@gmail.comDr. Grant Stucki Phone — 720-441-6059

If you're feeling overwhelmed trying to balance patient care while navigating all the buzz about AI in dentistry, you're not alone. But today's episode will help clear the confusion and show you how to use AI to your advantage—starting now. To break it down, I've invited Conner Ludlow, founder of Annie, an AI platform that builds virtual front desk assistants for dental practices. With a background as a software engineer and tech leader, Conner knows exactly where AI is truly helpful—and where the hype gets a little too loud. In this episode, we explore the real-world uses of AI for dentists today (without needing expensive software), what "AI hallucinations" mean for your practice, and how tools like Annie can stretch your operational dollars without replacing your team. It's a must-listen if you want practical strategies to make technology work for you—not against you. AI is a tool, not a silver bullet: It can boost efficiency but still needs human oversight to represent your practice properly. Real-world wins with AI: Practices can save time with AI-generated blogs, better market research, and virtual front desk agents like Annie. Customization is key: The most successful use of AI in a dental office feels personalized—not robotic—thanks to intentional setup and continuous fine-tuning. — Soundbites "Our goal is not to replace humans, but to help offices stretch their operational dollars and make sure that they have backup and help to never miss opportunities and make sure that they're capturing all of their revenue potential."– Conner Ludlow "AI is really just a new tool that can help practices and business owners and everybody be more effective in their job."– Conner Ludlow "We tend to overestimate the effect of a technology in the short run and underestimate the effect of the technology in the long run."— Conner Ludlow "Annie is not here to replace a full-time employee—it's a helper. When you bring it into your office, make sure your front desk team knows it's there to make their job easier, not replace them. It's about simplifying their work, not taking it away."-Dr. Len Tau — Keywords: dental AI, dental marketing, front desk automation, dental practice growth, artificial intelligence in dentistry, dental staffing solutions, AI for dentists, AI overhype, Annie AI, dental office management, chatbot dentistry, ChatGPT dental uses   — Key Takeaways 01:40 Introduction to AI in Dentistry 04:04 Understanding AI: Hype vs. Reality 07:03 Practical Applications of AI in Dental Practices 09:13 The Role of AI in Marketing and Content Creation 13:20 AI's Limitations and Challenges 17:04 The Future of AI in Dentistry 23:50 Annie: The AI Assistant for Dental Practices 31:06 Conclusion and Call to Action — Connect with Conner Want to learn more about how Annie can help your dental practice thrive with AI? ✅ Visit helloannie.com to schedule a demo. ✅ Mention you heard about Annie on the Raving Patients Podcast to get an exclusive discount — half off your setup fee plus savings on your monthly dues! ✅ Explore Annie's AI tools and see how you can streamline your front desk without replacing your valuable team.   Follow Conner and Annie for the latest updates:

What kind of communities do you belong to and are they helpful? The value of mentorship is always underestimated. Is it time to look for your own tribe? We also go through the last few classes we've given on industry insiders and insurance - did we scare the crowd? Probably. The talks of contracts and fee schedules are heating up. Millennials and the workplace were the next topic - are they that bad? Doesn't every generation have the potential to produce horrible employees? That led to the topic of marijuana in Nevada and Colorado. We missed out on the cash train, it seems!
