Dos and don'ts for internal marketing: Ask patients for testimonials
Your most enthusiastic patients may tell everyone they know what a great dentist you are, but there's a limit to how many people will get this message. By collecting written testimonials from happy patients and including them in your print materials and on your website, you'll be able to spread the good word, according to Dr. Roger P. Levin.

Dos and don'ts for customer service: Be a good neighbor
By its nature, a dental practice connects with and depends on the good will and support of its neighbors. So it's good business -- and the right thing to do -- to participate actively in your practice's neighborhood. Engage in community affairs in such a way that everyone thinks of you as a skilled and caring dentist but also a good neighbor, according to Dr. Roger P. Levin.

Dos and don'ts for practice leadership: Become a decisive leader
As practice owner and team leader, you need to make numerous decisions about management issues. To make this role easier, Dr. Roger P. Levin recommends separating decisions into those that will have little long-term effect on practice success and those that will have a significant impact. By spending less time on the former and more on the latter, you'll be a better leader -- and make better decisions.

Dos and don'ts for customer service: See your practice as patients do
The more focused you are on dentistry, the more difficult it is for you to see yourself, your team, and your practice from the patients' point of view. Yet their impressions are critically important to your success, so you need to look objectively at what they experience when they come in for an appointment, according to Dr. Roger P. Levin.

Dos and don'ts for patient communication: Help inexperienced patients understand oral health
It's easy for dental professionals to forget that some patients may have very low dental literacy, such as those who rarely see or have never seen a dentist. They may also be apprehensive about what's about to happen in the treatment chair. Make the effort to inform and reassure them, even though doing so calls for a little more time and effort, according to Dr. Roger P. Levin.
