Most of us are well aware of the impact of dental care on not just our oral health, but our overall wellness. This is true not only for humans, but animals as well.  Studies have shown that the vast majority of cats and dogs over the age of 3 have some degree of periodontal disease, and with pet ownership on the rise, it is more important than ever to educate clients on the importance of regular dental cleanings for their pets.  But until recently, dentistry wasn't a staple of veterinary education, so many practitioners haven't gotten the hands-on training needed to offer this vital service to their patients. So where do you begin?  On today's show, we are continuing our 2024 Midwest Veterinary Conference Preview Series with two rockstars of veterinary dentistry: Dr. Jamie Berning and technician Jill Bates, who are here to share a sneak peek at their two days of lectures and hands-on training at the MVC.  =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= For show notes, a transcript, and to learn more about today's guest, please visit ⁠⁠⁠www.fullyvettedpodcast.com⁠⁠⁠. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= ✱ Never miss an episode! ⁠⁠⁠Subscribe to email alerts »  --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/fully-vetted/message

This podcast episode features an interview with Annie Mills, an LVT and VTS in dentistry, who provides advice for general veterinary practices looking to build a dental program. She emphasizes the importance of staff education and training, identifying passionate team members, utilizing VTS technicians, and implementing dental radiography from the start to catch pathology early. Even without all the ideal equipment yet, practices can prepare their team with knowledge so they're ready when the technology is in place. Love Veterinary Dentistry?

Today, I'm thrilled to bring you some amazing insights from a recent episode featuring Michael Shirley, the owner of Family Pet Health veterinary hospital. Let me tell you, Michael's veterinary practice knows how to make a grand opening unforgettable. They managed to attract a whopping 350-450 people to their grand opening event, despite the challenges of parking and logistics. But it wasn't just a celebration of their new location - it was a showcase of their unique approach to veterinary care. They took participants on a guided tour, where they got to learn about different aspects of the practice, from radiology to surgery and recovery. And get this, they even used a stuffed animal dog to simulate real-life scenarios, like a pregnant dog needing surgery. How cool is that? One of the biggest takeaways from Michael's experience is the power of special events in engaging clients. At the grand opening, they handed out passport books to participants, who had to collect stamps from different stations to enter a contest for free vaccines for life. This clever strategy not only created excitement, but also allowed Family Pet Health to collect valuable contact information for future marketing campaigns. And let me tell you, Michael knows a thing or two about marketing. He used social media to generate buzz leading up to the event, creating authentic videos with his cell phone to showcase the unique features of their new building. They even ran video ads on platforms like Instagram, YouTube, and Facebook, which received a high click-through rate thanks to their engaging content. But that's not all. Michael also shares his insights on controlling the message about his new vet hospital and addressing concerns about potential price increases. He emphasizes the importance of charging what they're worth and providing a higher-end experience. And let's not forget about community engagement - Family Pet Health has a large garage space that can be rented out for events, from dog training classes to wedding and baby showers. By offering this space at a low cost, they not only give back to the community, but also attract potential clients who may already have dogs and need a veterinarian. I hope you found these insights as valuable as I did. If you want to connect with Michael, you can find him on LinkedIn or Facebook, where he's always active. And don't forget to check out the Veterinary Leadership Book Club, a Facebook group with over 3000 veterinary professionals, where they read and discuss books related to veterinary practice. A big thank you to our sponsors, the International Veterinary Dentistry Institute, Veterinary Dentistry.net, Used Vet Equipment, and New Vet Equipment. Without their support, we wouldn't be able to bring you these amazing episodes. So, share this podcast with others who could benefit from the content, and let's keep learning and growing together in the veterinary industry.

In this episode, I want to share with you the incredible insights I gained from my recent conversation with Luria Petrucci, a true pioneer in the world of live streaming and content creation. With over 17 years of experience under her belt, Luria's expertise is invaluable for anyone looking to up their content game and connect with their ideal clients. During our chat, Luria emphasized the power of live streaming as the most effective form of content creation. She believes that going live builds trust and authenticity, allowing you to connect with your audience on a deeper level. The benefits of live streaming are numerous, including less post-production time and the ability to create content even if things aren't perfect. We also discussed the importance of incorporating both live and pre-recorded content into your strategy, as they serve different purposes in reaching and engaging your audience. Creating content that resonates with your audience is key, and Luria shared some fantastic tips on how to do just that. Leveraging your expertise and incorporating storytelling can make your content engaging without the need for extensive research. For veterinarians, Luria suggests using animals as props and finding unique ways to connect with your audience. We also touched on the challenges of creating content for a hyper-local industry like veterinary hospitals and the effectiveness of platforms like Facebook and Instagram, especially through live videos. Engagement is crucial in live videos, and Luria provided some great insights on capturing attention. Incorporating animals, children, and food can help grab your viewers' interest. Luria also stressed the importance of connecting with your audience on a human level and taking a stance on relevant issues. We discussed the ideal setup for content creation, addressing common issues like bad echoes and background noise. Luria recommends having professional quality video for credibility but also acknowledges the value of raw, authentic content. Lastly, we talked about Luria's upcoming workshop, which focuses on content strategy and driving business growth. She emphasizes the importance of being intentional and consistent with your content creation efforts. Results may take time, but staying committed and making adjustments along the way is key. To find out more about Luria's workshop, head over to procom/masterclass. So, whether you're a seasoned content creator or just starting out, remember to stay committed, be consistent, and always strive to connect with your audience on a human level. Happy streaming!

Canine dentistry: What you need to know about oral health By listener request, here’s everything you need to know about oral health with Veterinary Dental Specialist, Dr. Jeff Schreiber. “Periodontal disease is very painful for the dog,” Schreiber said, but “Our pets are stoic. They don’t show pain very well.” Image by https://pixabay.com/users/Romek-829083/?utm_source=link-attribution&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=image&utm_content=4171105 (Romuald Gałęcki) from https://pixabay.com/?utm_source=link-attribution&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=image&utm_content=4171105 (Pixabay) Schreiber emphasizes that the best cure is prevention. Daily tooth brushing, Chlorhexaderm oral rinse and appropriate chew toys are the secret to success. “Plaque is the enemy,” Schreiber noted. Visit this site for a list of great products from chews to rinses to food choices: http://vohc.org/VOHCAcceptedProductsTable_Dogs.pdf (http://vohc.org/VOHCAcceptedProductsTable_Dogs.pdf) Signs of a problem: bad breath not eating as well blood on chew toys dropping food out of mouth, prefer soft food Schreiber strongly advocates regular dental cleanings while the pet is anesthetized. The veterinarian will pull blood work and should take xrays of the mouth. “60% of tooth structure is under the gum line,” Schreiber noted. “Good hygiene at home saves money on cleanings.” “Dogs are supposed to have 42 teeth. Each tooth is a patient in and of itself,” Schreiber said. Dental Emergency Breaking a canine is an emergency. “If we can catch it within the first day, you have a window where we can save the tooth and save the dog from a root canal. Breaking the tooth is an open wound. It needs to be dealt with, even if it is after the fact and needs a root canal. For folks who want the tooth to look good as new, the tooth can be crowned,” Schreiber said. Dr. Schreiber is a graduate of Kansas State University College of Veterinary Medicine, class of 1981. In February 1991 he opened Miracle Hills Animal Hospital. In January 2018 Dr. Schreiber merged his practice into VCA 80 Dodge Animal Hospital. His primary practice interests include advanced dentistry, internal medicine and junior and senior wellness care. Dr. Schreiber is also a member of the Foundation for Veterinary Dentistry. Outside of the practice he enjoys showing his dogs in AKC obedience trials, camping, golfing and spending time with his family. He and his wife have two grown children and three grandchildren.

Your practice should have a unique selling proposition, what makes you different, what makes you better or innovative and we cover how you can create that through  better service and more services in veterinary dentistry.  There are effectively two ways to make more revenue in your practice. You can either sell to more people (IE selling a product to 100 new people) or sell more products to your current clients (IE selling 100 dollars more per client who comes in). Having the skills and resources to be first, better and different when it comes to veterinary dentistry is a great way to stand out from the rest of the practices around you.  Be sure to check out the image library that Dr. Beckman is giving away to listeners of the podcast at http://www.veterinarydentistry.net/brandon Today we also cover how Dr. Beckman is able to run his own marketing so well.
