Episode 262 – How to Staff Smarter in Dentistry
In this episode of Everyday Practices Dental Podcast, host Regan Robertson is joined by Dr. Nikki Green of Fort Worth Cosmetic & Family Dentistry (Fort Worth, Texas) and JW Oliver, Visionary at SupportDDS, to explore a groundbreaking approach to staffing that is transforming dental practices across the profession.
Dr. Green shares her journey of embracing remote team members through SupportDDS, long before remote work became mainstream in the field. This episode delves into the challenges and rewards of shifting traditional mindsets on team structure.
Dr. Devin Giron – Vida Dental Studio – Santa Fe, New Mexico
Dr. Devin Giron faced a challenge much too common among dentists: working harder and earning less in a PPO-driven practice. His patient load was high, but his profits were shrinking. With burnout looming, he turned to PDA for help in transitioning to a fee-for-service model. Through customized coaching, strategic marketing, and clinical calibration, Dr. Giron underwent a growth transformation, increasing production by 8x while reducing his chair time by half. Learn how PDA helped him achieve these remarkable results. Download the case study to discover his formula for success.
Employer Branding with PDA
It’s always a pleasure to work with our doctors and help them tell their stories. At the September Productive Dentist Academy Conference, we had the chance to sit down with nearly 20 doctors, coaching them to feel more confident in front of the camera. We wanted to create something meaningful that they could take back to their practices. Here are two standout interviews that highlight the power of these videos:
Dr. Brent Wong (Shine Dental, Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada): Dr. Wong was incredibly comfortable on camera. With just a few cues, we worked together to produce a polished video to thank new patients for their first appointments. His performance sets the bar for what’s possible, showing other doctors how impactful these videos can be.
Dr. Jessica Brigati (Jessica H. Brigati, DDS, PLLC, Family Dentistry, Fort Worth, Texas): Dr. Brigati was a bit nervous at first, but by the end of our session, she was able to show her authentic self. I’m confident that when patients see this video, they’ll connect with who she truly is.
