Mistakes High-Performing Dental Practices Make

 
The 3-part article series recently published on Dentistry IQ web site discusses the top 7 mistakes of high-performing practices and how to avoid them. According to the web site, here are the most common mistakes:

1. Most dentists are unaware of their numbers.
2. If you do not have a person who is dedicated to recall in your office, you are missing out on a huge opportunity.
3. You all love your equipment. Everything is NEW! It’s beautiful, but NEW is expensive.
4. Intraoral cameras are the most underutilized instruments in the entire office.
5. High overhead — most of the offices have overhead over 65%.
6. Lack of a financial arrangements policy.
7. You don’t always distinguish between the two types of new patients you have: ones who already know you and ones who don’t.
