In this episode, Dr. Ahmad Al-Hassiny breaks down the game-changing role of digital scanners in modern dentistry. From CEREC and Trios to Medit, Dr. Al-Hassiny talks about how these tools are making single-visit treatments a breeze and improving everything from crowns to hygiene work. He also shares why scanners are now a must-have, especially for full-arch cases.
Next is the world of 3D printing and how it’s revolutionizing dental workflows.

In this episode, we are joined by Amol Nirgudkar to tackle one of the biggest challenges in modern dental practices: maintaining a steady flow of high-value patients and maximizing appointment scheduling efficiency. We explore how digital marketing and direct-to-consumer strategies have transformed patient acquisition while uncovering pitfalls like missed calls—25-30% of which go unanswered during business hours—and low scheduling rates, with only 55-60% of calls leading to appointments. Our guest shares actionable insights on boosting these numbers to 80-85% using tools like AI, ensuring the right patients fill your schedule without compromising your practice’s fit.

In this episode, we dive into the world of strategic planning for 2025 and how I’m making the process easier in my practice. I believe it all starts with me getting clear on my financial, clinical, and long-term goals while keeping an eye on the realities we’re facing right now. Once I have that vision, I bring my dentists and practice leaders into the conversation to ensure everyone is on the same page.
We typically spend about an hour outlining the key components together. I also value their feedback—it really helps us fine-tune our strategy. With two months left in the year, now is the perfect time to make adjustments before the new year rolls around.

In this episode, Meredith and I discuss bringing orthodontics back into our practice after a break during the pandemic. We reflect on the success we had pre-pandemic, managing 60-70 cases annually, and how staff changes and the pandemic led us to refer all ortho cases out. Now, with the growing demand for orthodontic treatments, we’ve decided it’s time to reintegrate ortho into the practice. We talk about the importance of having a dedicated team member, or "champion," to lead the program, our goals for managing 5-10 cases per month, and the strategies we plan to use, including marketing efforts and leveraging new tools to ensure success.

In this episode, Meredith and I dive deep into the four key fundamentals of achieving successful case acceptance in dentistry. These core principles are essential for ensuring patients understand their dental health needs and agree to treatment plans.

Maintaining focus on these four fundamentals is critical for achieving high case acceptance and ensuring a thriving practice.

In this episode, I talk about the concept that growth is not linear—it comes with ups and downs, and it's essential to approach your dental practice with a proactive, long-term mindset. As the dental industry often reacts rather than leads, this episode emphasizes the importance of shifting from a reactive to a proactive approach, especially in the face of economic uncertainty. Whether we’re in a recession or not, the key takeaway is to remain thoughtful and strategic in your business decisions.
I also shared that understanding and anticipating economic trends can help your practice thrive, even in challenging times. By staying informed and proactive, you can ensure that your practice continues to grow, despite the inevitable ups and downs.

In this episode Meredith and I, focus on the importance of adjusting goals and schedules to balance professional and personal life. Talking how aligning work around your kids' school schedules can simplify the dental business and debunk the misconception that dentistry has to be complicated. Reflecting on nostalgic baseball hitting streaks, I draw a parallel to maintaining consistency in our efforts. We emphasize the need to reassess goals mid-year rather than waiting for the new year, adjusting revenue expectations based on current performance, and reverse engineering strategies to identify what's working.

In this episode, Meredith and I explore how leveraging technology can simplify dental practices, reduce patient costs, and increase profits. I discuss essential technologies every practice should consider insourcing, including digital cameras, digital impression machines, and 3D x-rays (CBCT), and outlines a step-by-step approach for transitioning from outsourcing to insourcing these tools.
