Do's and don'ts for the hygienist: Remember your value to the practice
It's a mistake to think that doctors are the only influencers in dental practices, notes Dr. Roger P. Levin in his latest Practice Success tip. Hygienists also are viewed by patients as an authority and that -- coupled with the amount of time they spend with patients -- presents unique opportunities for education, identification, and recommendations.

Do's and don'ts for creating a happy work environment: Be a great doctor -- and a great leader
Every day you strive to provide great dental care, but as the practice leader, you are also responsible for helping to keep your team happy, enthusiastic, and inspired.

Levin in his latest Practice Success tip.

Did you have a good fiscal year? Remember, you're the CEO of your practice, so it's up to you to know how your practice is progressing toward its profitability goals.

Do's and don'ts for practice analysis: Is it time for new systems?
Most dentists try to get by with their management systems for as long as possible. They put up with the bottlenecks and the breakdowns for years. When owners finally implement new systems and the practice is running better than ever, they often ask themselves, "Why did I wait so long?" Dr. Roger P. Levin asks, are your practice systems in good shape, or have they passed their expiration date?

Do's and don'ts for practice marketing: What's your plan for 2018?
You can't recycle the same marketing strategies year after year because they become less and less effective. Sure, you might want to repeat some of your most potent promotions, but you should also add new campaigns, methods, and activities. Putting together your marketing plan now will help your practice hit the ground running in 2018, notes Dr. Roger P. Levin in his latest Practice Success tip.

Do's and don'ts for a strong finish: Keep focused
As we approach the end of the year, the distractions multiply. The holidays will soon be here and that means family gatherings, preparations, shopping, travel, etc. Without strong leadership, your practice could limp to the finish line. Use morning meetings and encouragement throughout the day to build momentum, so your practice can finish the year strong, advises Dr. Roger P. Levin.

Do's and don'ts for strategic planning: Step back and focus on the big picture
With a new year just around the corner, it's a good time to review what your practice accomplished in 2017, according to Dr. Roger P. Levin. What performance goals did your office meet or exceed? And in what areas did you fall short? With that information in hand, you can begin working on your strategic plan for 2018.

Do's and don'ts for patient satisfaction: Is your customer service a trick or a treat?
Do you and your team make patients feel they are part of something special -- that your practice is the best place for their oral healthcare? It can be easy to take patients for granted, especially if they've been coming to your practice for a while. Always look for ways to strengthen the relationship and delight patients, advises Dr. Roger P. Levin. Your efforts will keep them coming back.

Do's and don'ts for reducing cancellations: Schedule based on patient needs
Preappointing works for many patients, but not for everyone. Segment your patients based on their behavior. If a portion of your patients consistently cancel after they've been preappointed, contact them a month before their next hygiene appointment and then follow up with one-week and 48-hour reminders, Dr. Roger P. Levin recommends in his latest Practice Success tip.
