Dental equipment specialist Ben Oliver joins the podcast to talk about the biggest mistakes dentists make when starting their practice, from design and timing to equipment selection. With 14 years of experience and over 200 build-outs, Ben offers an honest, no-fluff perspective on how to approach your startup budget and vision. Learn about the 'good, better, best' of dental equipment, the massive cost difference that customization creates, and why your mechanical room and sterilization center—not just your chairs—are the true heartbeat of your practice. Plus, get key insights into the critical timeline overlap that prevents you from paying rent on an unopened office, and how to avoid falling for social media trends that don't fit your location or budget.
