Investing in Your Team<\/h3><p>Running a successful dental practice is not easy, but with the right team behind you by hiring the best staff, it becomes easier and will help your practice performance. You can either hire the staff from outside or train them in-house and develop them as needed to fit perfectly into your team. \u00a0You can help your team keep up-to-date with the latest practices and best practices by ensuring they attend workshops, conferences, online courses, newsletters, and read relevant books and magazines&#8230;the possibilities are virtually limitless.\u00a0When you invest in your staff, you&#8217;re investing in your dental practice, you improve the patient experience, and prepare it for success in the future.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7702422 elementor-widget__width-initial elementor-widget-mobile__width-inherit external_elementor-repeater-item-none_external elementor-repeater-item-none elementor-repeater-item-none_hover elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"7702422\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<style>\/*! elementor - v3.21.0 - 25-04-2024 *\/\n.elementor-widget-image{text-align:center}.elementor-widget-image a{display:inline-block}.elementor-widget-image a img[src$=\".svg\"]{width:48px}.elementor-widget-image img{vertical-align:middle;display:inline-block}<\/style>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" src=\"https:\/\/mcpschools.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Dental-staff-giving-each-other-a-high-five-for-success-600x400-1.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-1709\" alt=\"Dental staff giving each other a high five for success\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4ce46f2 elementor-repeater-item-none elementor-repeater-item-none_hover elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"4ce46f2\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3>4. Share &amp; Delegate the Responsibilities<\/h3><p>As a dental office manager, it&#8217;s not uncommon to get overwhelmed and feel like there&#8217;s not enough time during the day to get through your list of tasks.\u00a0If you&#8217;re feeling overwhelmed you are not going to offer the best dental experience to your customers or be supportive to your staff.<\/p><p>The first step is to list all the things you must do and assign any tasks you can delegate to other staff members.\u00a0Even if you only give a task to someone else as a one-off so that you can focus on something else, each small thing helps.\u00a0Remember that you&#8217;re a part of a group, and if you&#8217;re honest and fair, employees will be happy to help you whenever you require it. Dental practice owners and managers can often feel separated from the team, but the success of your dental practice revolves around you (a lot of pressure!), and making sure you are level-headed, composed, and able to deal with any issues that arise will also help your entire team.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4d931ee elementor-repeater-item-none elementor-repeater-item-none_hover elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"4d931ee\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3>5. Embrace Modern Technology &amp; Management Systems<\/h3><p>It takes a lot to run a world-class dental practice, and to be competitive against other dental practices within your area, staying current and adopting the latest technology and practice management software in all aspects of your business is essential.\u00a0From ensuring that your personnel has the latest tools and equipment available to securing high levels of dental staff skills by training your dental assistants in partnership with MCP Schools, by keeping current with the most recent advances and developments in the field of dentistry, you&#8217;ll be just one step ahead your competitors.

Staff Should Be Aware of What to Do They Can \u201cSell\u201d Treatment<\/h3><p>Showing patients the value of the recommended treatment can increase the chances they will accept it and allow you and your team to provide quality dental care. Patients aren&#8217;t willing to accept treatment they don\u2019t understand or believe they require, regardless of how much dentists insist on its importance. This is important as a patient should not accept unnecessary and irrelevant treatment, but if it is, it needs to be carefully explained, this will help accept treatment recommendations and return.\u00a0To offer patients high-quality treatment, dental professionals should be aware of the benefits of the recommended procedure in terms of the patient&#8217;s quality of life.\u00a0If patients see how dental treatment can enhance their lives, they are far more likely to vote in favor of the procedure.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1e26083 elementor-repeater-item-none elementor-repeater-item-none_hover elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"1e26083\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3>7. Keep In Contact With Your Existing Patients<\/h3><p>New patients are fantastic, and keeping the others you already have is vital to the long-term profitability of the practice!\u00a0It is more challenging to convince patients to visit the clinic for the first time rather than convincing former patients to return for further procedures; therefore, creating an excellent patient experience is key.\u00a0<\/p><p>Be sure to follow up with existing patients through texts, phone calls, emails, or even written mail to remind them of appointments and offers.\u00a0It&#8217;s worth going the extra mile to contact patients using their preferred method to increase your odds of getting the best response possible. When onboarding a patient, perhaps request the way they prefer to be contacted so you can make sure to use that to increase your chances. Improving your patient satisfaction through excellent patient care will help your patients and enhance the patient experience.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-582034c elementor-repeater-item-none elementor-repeater-item-none_hover elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"582034c\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3>8.

Profit From Positive Reviews &amp; Deal with Negative Reviews<\/h3><p>One of the simplest and most effective methods of advertising your existing or new practice is to get patients to leave and utilize reviews as often as possible.\u00a0Patients can either verbally refer their family and friends to your excellent services or leave their reviews online on your Google my Business. You can then publish their thoughts on your dental practice&#8217;s social media and website. There are various ways to utilize positive reviews to promote your dental practice, which we discuss in our article on advertising dental practices.<\/p><p>If you end up with a negative review online, you need to embrace it calmly and address the issues mentioned. You can often do well by addressing the negative reviews and showing the people reading them that you are professional and address any issues that arise. People are often skeptical of consistent 5-star reviews, so being efficient and effective in dealing with negative reviews can help make your business seem more authentic.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-0f8a612 elementor-repeater-item-none elementor-repeater-item-none_hover elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"0f8a612\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3>13.
