Patients appreciate options. When you're able to offer more to patients and provide the education and autonomy to choose a higher level of services, their health improves and the business performs better.

Today, dental hygiene coaches Bert Triche and Paige Hood are joining the podcast to talk about ways to expand care in a dental office. In this episode, you'll learn: How expanded hygiene care leads to higher doctor production How to get patients excited about their care options Why 30-minute hygiene appointments often stunt practice growth How hygienists can empower patients to move forward with necessary care Also, Bert and Paige will be speaking more on this at our upcoming Champions of Dentistry Summit in Austin!

Most practice owners focus on 3 key numbers in their office: production, collections, and number of new patients. While these numbers are important to the success of the business, there's one crucial figure missing… profitability.  If you're not paying attention to profitability, you will likely end up with cash flow issues, difficulties making payroll, and stress around paying bills. You could face challenges if you want to take out a loan or sell the business. Profits keep the lights on, so it's important to monitor the profitability of your dental office. In this episode of The Double Your Production Podcast, Dr. John Meis and Wendy Briggs are sharing their best advice for turning a profit each month. If practice profitability isn't where it should be, now is the time to address it.

Carrie Marshall grew up in a family dental practice. As an adult, she worked as a dental assistant and helped her dad grow the practice from 2 chairs to 10 chairs. As the practice continued to grow and her brothers joined, she noticed the stress level in her parents rising. She watched her dad stay up late at night trying to build a practice that could sustain them all comfortably. Carrie started to see that this stress and isolation was common across dentistry, so she decided to shift her career and study tools to help dental professionals better understand and improve their mental health. She became a Master Certified Coach and now helps dentists and teams manage their mental energy, deal with emotions in a healthy way, and avoid burnout. In this episode of The Double Your Production Podcast, Dr. John Meis and Wendy Briggs are sitting down with Carrie to get some immediate tools to alleviate the stress and isolation that is so prevalent among dental professionals. We're also thrilled to announce that Carrie Marshall will be joining us at this year's Champions of Dentistry Summit in Orlando!

Experts from Kleer, Inspired Hygiene, Wonderist Agency, and others, chat with Reese and Ryan, and offer their unique points-of-view about the coming year. The interviews can be unexpectedly personal, and often truly powerful. It's a one-of-a-kind show full of little golden nuggets of wisdom.

Sully and Peyray are on a flight to attend the 3rd annual Voices of Dentistry Summit in Scottsdale, AZ. They are excited to visit the booths of other dental podcasters. Last year, they had their own booth and didn't have time for anything other than recording. Peyray will also be speaking this weekend about dental photography. He has a lot of ideas about how useful photography is for treatment planning. We hope you enjoy the conversation! Show Notes: [03:47] Peyray has a lot of powerpoints with great information for his presentation. [04:07] You can see some of his work on his Instagram account. When you take great pictures, you can sell a lot of dentistry. [04:33] You can learn so much by looking at the pictures of your cases. You can also go back and find any mistakes that you may have made in order to not repeat them in the future. [04:55] Photography has made Peyray a better clinician. [05:19] After dental school, he bought a camera and started taking Udemy courses and watching YouTube. [06:19] He also learned from Eduardo Aguilar. [07:26] Photography is a lot about the lighting and anyone can benefit from having a softbox. [07:52] Tomorrow Peyray is going to share the settings he uses, the tools that he uses, and encourage people to go practice. [08:34] Invest in your future and get a Nikon or Canon DSLR camera. He has the D810 full frame. The D7500 is also a great choice. [10:36] Photography helps with documentation, and documentation is the key. [11:39] His full arch patients and aesthetic patients get photography. [12:46] Sully takes five or six shots of every patient. Patients can diagnose their own dentistry when they see the pictures. [13:58] They block off some time for new hygiene patients to get photos. To Sully, hygiene is a loss leader. [15:27] That would be four or five new hygiene patients a day. [16:36] If a hygienist recognizes that the patient needs more than $2,000 worth of work, they make an appointment to bring them back. [17:32] Always address the patient's chief complaint. [21:00] It's important to take the time to communicate with the patient. Having a good team also helps. [21:51] Sully shares the new patient experience at his office. [26:24] Sully also does in office payment plans. They are at the point, because they are selling cases not individual procedures. [28:54] There are a lot of missed opportunities with dentists who don't do sedation dentistry. [30:51] Peyray goes to ADA sedation meetings. You can do so much more if you learn how to use it. IV brings a level of predictability. [32:41] Peyray gives people something to relax the night before surgery, then nitrous, and then an IV. As always thanks so much for listening!

Dr. Jeff Rouse joins Jason and Alan to give a systematic and common sense approach to screening and treating airway problems in the dental office. Sleep apnea. Airway disturbances. You've heard a lot about the diagnosis and treatment of these problems on this very podcast! In episode 165 Dr. Jeff Rouse makes an excellent case for why being aware of the airway has changed the way he practices dentistry. Jeff is a prosthodontist practicing in San Antonio as well as in Seattle with Dr. Frank Spear, Dr. Gregg Kinzer and Dr. Stephanie Zeller. His background is in restorative dentistry and interdisciplinary treatment planning (he wrote books on this stuff!) but he's most passionate about airway! He tells us about how he practices on a day to day basis and how he's simplified the diagnosis and treatment of airway disturbances in children and adults. We give Jeff permission to be "king of the world" to explain what the perfect treatment team would be and he lays out his simplified (and brilliant) protocol for helping patients with their airway!

A couple months back Peyray I bumped into Dr. Jason Campbell at the Voices of Dentistry Summit. In a quick five minute conversation I knew we had to get him on the podcast. Dr. Campbell has created an entire institute called the Advanced Prosthetics Institute in Prescott, Arizona to teach dentists on the importance of taking a biofunctional approach to dentistry. Holsinger, Peyray, and myself sat down with Dr. Campbell for about an hour to hear his journey from associate to owning a niche practice that deals with complex patients and care. In addition we talk about the role his teaching plays in what he does and the courses he offers at API. This episode is worth a listen. I can honestly say I won't look at teeth the same way after our conversation and his course on biofunction has jumped to the top of our list! We even got a special discount for our listeners. Sign up for one course with the code millennialdds2017 to get $150 off either course. Or 10% off if you sign up for both courses with the code API10for2. As always we thank you for your support and hope you will keep spreading the word! 

I met Dr. Jason Campbell at the Voices of Dentistry Summit in Nashville, TN. He has a fascinating story and is engaged in groundbreaking work with patients at his clinic, Cosmetic and Family Dentistry, in Prescott, AZ. From an early age, Jason's always wanted to be a dentist. Since genetic problems with teeth plagued him from the beginning, he brings a sense of passion to working with patients who present unique challenges.

Look. Running a successful dental practice is incredibly difficult. Day in and day out, you’re juggling marketing, budgets, growing your team.. and a million other things on your always expanding todo list. I get it. And yet… at the end of the day, as a practice owner, you have to remember, you’re in the SERVICE industry. Which means, everything you do should be focused on providing the best service you possibly can. Because ultimately that’s what keeps the lights on. Which unfortunately, many dentists often forget. Today I’m excited to share my conversation with Dr. Anissa Holmes from Delivering Wow. You may remember her from episode 9 of the SYDP podcast where she shared her insight on how to get the most out of Facebook. We recently had a chance to reconnect at the Voices of Dentistry Summit and I knew I had to have her back on the show. I’m absolutely blown away with what’s she’s been able to accomplish since we last sat down to chat. As cliche as it might sound, she really delivers the wow in this one and shares exactly how to do the same for your practice. [su_note note_color="#028000 " text_color="#ffffff " radius="5"]Enjoy the episode? You'll Love The Delivering Wow Roadmap Checklist from Dr. Anissa Holmes  Click Here For The Checklist[/su_note] Here are a few things you'll discover in today's episode: What “delivering wow” means to Anissa,  and how you can apply it to your own practice. Anissa’s expansion to teaching, and how it’s also helped accelerate her own practice. Her decision process on whether to purchase another practice. How to grow your practice and WORK LESS (yes, it’s true.) The systems and team you need to fast track your growth. How  to increase your “Luck" through discipline.  The power of “reverse engineering” and how it applies to you. And much more. Free Episode Bonus A special thanks to Anissa for coming on the show. As she has proven time and time again, by over delivering in your practice and life, you can blow your competition out of the water and deliver an experience that your patients won’t ever forget. If you want to "deliver wow" in your own practice, you'll love her free delivering wow roadmap checklist.

So everyone takes time off between Christmas and New Year's Day, right? All that eating and college football means there's not enough time for a new podcast, right? Nope. We're on it. Boom. Dr. Shawn Van de Vyver joins Alan to talk about dental insurance, health insurance and having some empathy for the dental patient that wants to use their benefits. Then they dig into the idea of doing an "interview" with a new patient during their first exams and building up "emotional capital" (Shawn's fancy word). They also talk about the sponsors of the upcoming Voices of Dentistry Summit. These companies have decided to back the most innovative meeting os 2017 in spectacular fashion!

Everyone has those patients that would probably best be served with a full mouth reconstruction. But many or even most of those patients can't or won't fit that into their budget. What if you could offer treatment that could offer positive esthetic and restorative changes to stabilize these patients with composite resin? Dr. Corky Willhite has been delivering this service, which he calls "transitional bonding" for years and he teaches it at the Cosmedent CEE! In today's episode he explains how he started doing transitional bonding and how to do it:  from smile design to a stable products that can last for years! Want to see more? Corky is presenting a 3 day course on transitional bonding from March 16-18th, 2017 in Chicago! The Brain Trust features 5 speakers at the upcoming Voices of Dentistry Summit! We ask the question: does CBCT make you a better dentist? Jason and Alan talk with Dr. Wes Mullins from "the Dental Guys" podcast, Dr. Lance Timmerman of "Totally Oral" and Dr. Justin Moody of the "Dentists Implants and Worms" podcast about what CBCT has done for their practice and why they think it's an important tool! You're going to love this discussion (including Justin's near miss with a train). If you do...you need to buy your Voices of Dentistry tickets so you can meet them all in person!

We feature Dr. Mark Costes, Dr. Shawn Van de Vyver and the Dental Hacks talking about social media marketing, JLips' "hip hop practice," podcasting and the most innovative CE event of 2017...the Voices of Dentistry Summit! A couple of things: 1) This is the same content that Mark released on the Dentalpreneur a couple weeks ago. It's great, but if you've heard it on his show...it's the same. 2) The Voices of Dentistry podcast is primarily for dental podcast listeners! It's a CE event for the people who are cool enough, good looking enough and smart enough to have made dental podcasts a part of their life! It's also for people interested in podcasting, because you'll have access to a whole bunch of dental podcasters to talk about how they do what they do. But first...it's for people like you who listen to the Dental Hacks podcast. And we really want you to come! 3) Some links from the show: www.thrivexperiencemasterclass.com www.voicesofdentistry.com Prices won't go up until next week. Get your tickets now!
