“Everyone should have the same goal: we’re going to take great care of our patients. That is what is really going to grow your dental practice.” ~Dr. Bruce B. Baird

I get asked all the time: “What are the most important things I need to do to run a successful dental practice?”

It’s a pretty general question, but during my career I honed it down to 5 different areas of practice management that every dentist should be overseeing including patient management, team management, financial procedures that ensure your profitability, marketing and patient acquisition, and compliance and risk management.

Remember these management areas apply to every independent dentist. If you’re new to the game, then make sure you’re doing these things as you get started. If you’ve been in business for a while, make sure you are reviewing these 5 areas every year to keep your business growing.

So, if you’re interested in making your dental practice profitable, then join me today for the first part of a 2 part series where I share practical ways you can make sure you oversee the 5 areas of dental practice management, including:

            
• The importance of communicating effectively
            
• Setting goals and knowing where you’re at
            
• The importance of 5% in your finances
