Dental Mastermind: Igniting Practice Growth Through Accountability

2023-05-23T11:58:55-04:00

Masterminds are relevant. Napoleon Hill’s model of Mastermind groups for 10-20 business owners meeting together is a nearly 100-year-old concept that’s still going strong fast forwarding success for business owners in every industry. Why? Because if you take multiple smart individuals and put them together in a group with a highly skilled and knowledgeable coach (or several coaches), the result is not simply addition of these smart individuals’ talents but a factor of the group multiplied by its size.  10 participants is the equivalent of 100 “lone wolves” operating independently without input from other business owners! Masterminds are even more important [...]

Artificial Intelligence (AI), Selling Big Cases and Challenging Economies

2023-05-23T12:00:24-04:00

Artificial Intelligence (AI), Selling Big Cases and Challenging Economies What have I learned from 30+ years of running dental businesses and having my hand in hundreds of advanced clinical practices spending tons of money on advertising in great (and not so great) economies? Well, the No. 1 business endeavor that made the most difference economically throughout these varying economies wasn’t the practices’ advertising; it was whether a practice possessed mastership level sales abilities in both sales process and sales leadership. In down economies, it meant more money from the business flow, be it from existing patients or from any and all [...]

The Limitations of Implant Knowledge, Part 2

2023-05-23T12:09:58-04:00

When you take the profession as a whole, single teeth implants are the only treatment modality most dentists have a basic understanding of and there are still docs who can't restore even a single implant. AOX Case Knowledge When we move to the partial arch case or the full arch case, even among those with good single tooth capabilities, the knowledge about full arch cases is very limited. Few understand what the current best options are for long term success with full arch cases. Few understand full arch restorative material choices. Few are capable of planning full arch cases surgically. [...]

In a moment, you'll listen to one of our docs stories on how he gets full fees for cases. But first, a reality or two to consider. Reality #1 Most dentists resort to uncontrolled discounting as their only way to sell their services. Why?  They simply don't know any better.

Guess Which Implant Ad Agency Is FIRST?

2023-05-23T12:18:19-04:00

Spoiler alert! Among independently owned practices actively advertising full-arch implants (e.g. All-on-4 / All-on-X) we rank first in total locations and have been in that spot since years straight. Yes, ClearChoice, Aspen, Affordable Dentures etc. have far more locations but to us what counts are hard working entrepreneurial individuals and small groups. Why not be a part of something big and help more patients who need implant therapy? At the minimum, why not aim for or simply add 36 arches annually? To partner with the only comprehensive advertising and sales program in dentistry for the All-on-4 / All-on-X case with the [...]

Can You Treat This Implant Case?

2023-05-23T12:18:57-04:00

Can you treat All-on-4 / All-on-X / full arch implant cases? Want cases just like the one above? If so, how many? Why not treat a least three every month OR 1-2 every week? Or... If you are of the 'go big or go home' mindset, how about aiming for 20 arches every month?   ... IF you have the stamina!  The only way to find out what's possible is to have a discussion about what your goals are in your local market and to obtain an objective assessment on what's possible and what the real costs are to make that [...]

What’s the Cost for Advertising All-on-4 Cases?

2023-05-23T12:20:34-04:00

We've gone into the long list of reasons why patients want full arch immediate load implant procedures such as All-on-X / All-on-4. This procedure (or similar protocols) continues to be a winner for patients and for implant practices willing to embrace the right advertising while taking relationship based sales process serious. We've also gone over the population demographics and that the trend of terminal dentition patients wanting and needing these protocols and future derivations of such will continue to expand for the coming 20-30 years. Barring a zombie apocalypse, this procedure will outlive my personal business lifetime and very likely [...]
