Patient Communication
Dos and don'ts for patient communication

Dos and don'ts for branding
Many dentists believe that having a dental practice is a brand in itself. There's some truth to that idea, but that doesn't automatically guarantee you patients. Thirty or 40 years ago, dentists could get away with placing a nondescript sign outside their office and expect to be very successful. That is no longer sufficient in today's highly competitive marketplace.
