Long-term dental success starts with staying on time and on schedule so you are able to predictably produce numbers per hour. We’ve worked with thousands of dentists and helped them understand the concepts we teach about scheduling at Productive Dentist Academy. The problem for many is that scheduling to productivity is 180 degrees from what they’ve been taught. But it’s all about productivity per hour. Rarely does productivity mean working faster. It’s about working smarter.
Today, we’ll talk about how to have your assistants take ownership of their patients (and why this is important to you and your patients) and the importance of communication between the assistants and the front office. Also, we’ll talk about how at Granbury new patients see me first before hygiene because we’ve seen a 27% increase in productivity when I see them first. Lastly, we’ll talk about how to look at every procedure in your practice and help you know what to look for when scheduling to productivity in your office.
