Do's and don'ts for implant case presentation: Play the long game

In addition, they involve surgery, as in dental surgery. Those are two words that few people want to hear, yet the benefits of implants are numerous and life-changing. Dr. Roger P. Levin shares his tips for successful implant case presentation.

Do's and don'ts for employee motivation: Recognition matters
When was the last time you complimented someone on your team? Was it last week, last month, last year -- or can you even remember? Hopefully, it was recently because team members thrive in an atmosphere where their efforts are recognized and appreciated, notes Dr. Roger P. Levin in his latest Practice Success tip.

Do's and don'ts for cross-training: Protect your practice
Most practices are small businesses, with 10 or fewer employees. When a staff member is absent, it can wreak havoc on practice operations. Cross-training employees on additional duties is an excellent way to ensure the practice continues to perform at a high level even when staff members are out of the office, according to Dr. Roger P. Levin.

Do's and don'ts for practice communication: Keep the team informed
Too many dentists hold on to information that should be shared with the team, notes Dr. Roger P. Levin in his latest Practice Success tip. For example, if you have a practice vision, don't keep it in a notebook in a desk drawer, share it with your team! How can they help you achieve the vision if they don't know what it is?

Do's and don'ts for managing employee conflict: Be aware of what's going on
In a perfect practice, everyone would get along. But in the real world, people don't always agree, and that's to be expected, but you don't want a minor squabble turning into a major feud. As the practice owner, you need to be aware of what's going on -- the good and the bad -- with your team, notes Dr. Roger P. Levin.

Do's and don'ts for financial success: How to collect more
Practices are only collecting 91% of their total fees, according to a recent survey conducted by the Levin Group Data Center. Your target should be 98%. Each percentage point you can raise collections means thousands of dollars in additional revenue, writes Dr. Roger P. Levin in his latest Practice Success tip..

Do's and don'ts for leadership: Add new skills
Dentistry is constantly changing. There's more competition, patients have different expectations than in the past, and new technologies continue to create opportunities and disruption.

Do's and don'ts for hygiene growth: Contact overdue patients
Too many practices lose patients because the office fails to reach out to them after missing an appointment. If you wait for patients to call you, you'll be waiting a long time. Instead, make it a priority to reschedule patients who missed an appointment. The sooner you can get them back on the schedule, the more likely they will remain a patient.
