If you’re running a dental practice today, you’re no stranger to the pressures of growth, consistency, staff management and delivering high-quality patient care. Despite many levers to improve business revenue, it is important to not forget the most critical for long-term success! The clinical and communication success of your clinicians. The lifeblood of your practice.

Often, clinicians are expected to either already know everything and be highly successful from day dot, or learn on the job, figure things out themselves, and "pick up speed." Yes, you can wait for your clinicians to find their own CPD and education pathway and figure things out. But in reality, this approach limits your practice's growth potential to the whims of individuals. A structured onboarding and training plan changes that, and provides consistency across different personalities, different strengths and areas for growth and allows for a faster integration and success for the team. 

When associates are provided comprehensive and extensively supported clinical training, their treatment planning improves. Their communication sharpens. Their dentistry becomes more efficient and both patient and outcome-driven. They stop avoiding procedures and start taking ownership of more complex cases, in turn bringing new services and revenue into the practice. Now, you shouldn't expect such change from a 2-3 day workshop, but you can expect this from a 6-24 month program.

Practices that invest in their team also build loyalty. Clinicians feel valued, feel they have a structured plan for their growth, and part of something bigger. That translates to reduced turnover and better patient continuity. A win - win!  Otherwise how are you different from any other practice?

Clinical education is not a cost, it should be a growth strategy. One that lifts the entire practice, improves patient outcomes, and allows you to delegate with trust and clarity.
