In this episode, I’m breaking down how to diagnose if you’re over-teamed or under producing and what to do about it. If you’ve got an advanced skill set—whether it’s ortho, implants, grafting, or molar root canals—you should be hitting at least $80,000 a month in production. If not, there are fundamental issues to address, and we’ll start by looking at team compensation, which should fall between 20-30% of collections. I’ll walk you through how to calculate this, including salaries, benefits, and taxes, and explain why focusing on major overhead areas is far more impactful than obsessing over saving a few bucks on supplies. Let’s dig into the metrics that will help you optimize your practice and boost profitability.

In this episode of the Millennial Dentist Podcast, I share my personal journey in dentistry and how real-life experiences shape my approach to patient care. I discuss the vital role of numbing and sedation in ensuring our patients are comfortable during their dental procedures. Drawing from my time in a growing practice, I emphasize that achieving profound numbness is key to effective sedation, as insufficient numbing can lead to discomfort and a less efficient process. I also candidly question why some practitioners underutilize anesthetics and encourage a more generous approach to ensure every patient feels at ease.

In this episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on the real, less glamorous side of running a dental practice. After taking a brief break, I found myself navigating a challenging week filled with unexpected team drama, which reminded me that not everything in dentistry is as perfect as it seems on social media. Inspired by a candid conversation with a fellow doctor about the inevitable “suck” we all face, I dive into how I handle these tough moments while still striving for balance.
I share insights on the importance of being present, managing team dynamics, and embracing the grind, even when it gets tough. This episode serves as a reminder that we’re all human, and that those challenging weeks are just part of the journey toward building a successful practice.

In this episode of the Millennial Dentist Podcast, I'm diving into a topic that's crucial for every dental practice—how to balance your schedule in a way that maintains consistent production, even when the economy isn't on your side. I’ll be talking about why it's so important to set both minimum and maximum production goals to keep things stable and avoid the rollercoaster of fluctuating income from month to month.
I'll also share some of the challenges we face as dentists when the supply of our services starts to outpace demand. This is something I’ve experienced personally, and I’ll walk you through some strategies for managing practice expenses while keeping your goals in check. I’m not a fan of traditional goal-setting methods that give you just one target to aim for—so, in this episode, I’ll explain a more strategic approach that helps you grow your business while also leveling up your skills.

In this episode, I share the importance of guiding patients toward case acceptance before overwhelming them with treatment details. Often, young doctors and new associates make the mistake of diving into the who, what, why, and how of treatment before patients have even agreed to move forward, which can feel more like sales than patient care. We need to know the value of presenting clear options first and waiting for the patient to commit before offering detailed explanations. By shifting this approach, dentists can build stronger patient relationships and improve treatment acceptance rates.

In this episode, I talk about the saying "the devil is in the details" and how focusing too much on small details can slow us down. I share stories from my own practice, where trying to get every detail perfect caused more problems than it solved. Instead, I suggest a simpler approach that focuses on what really matters, helping us work more efficiently and grow our practices. I believe in making things easier, trusting our team, and keeping the big picture in mind so we can keep improving and moving forward.

In this episode, Kirk Behrendt and I talked about my story of becoming a key figure in dental education through my podcast. I discuss the importance of understanding patient perspectives and making informed treatment presentations. Emphasizing the need for dentists to avoid projecting their value systems onto patients and to respect individual financial situations. This approach not only fosters trust but also helps in presenting comprehensive dentistry without pressuring for high case acceptance rates.

In this episode of the Millennial Dentist Podcast, I, Dr. Sully Sullivan, continue my conversation with Brett from Digital Doc, diving into patient communication, case acceptance, and the importance of understanding patients' perspectives in our dental practices. We discuss the necessity of acknowledging sales in dentistry and improving our sales skills while maintaining professional ethics. We challenge the misconception of striving for 100% case acceptance, advocating for the presentation of comprehensive treatment plans to enhance patient care. This episode highlights the significance of proper diagnostics, effective verbal skills, and the role of team dynamics in presenting treatment plans. We also stress the importance of letting patients make informed decisions based on risks, benefits, and alternatives.

In this episode of the Millennial Dentist Podcast, Dr. Sully Sullivan discusses a pressing issue in dentistry: dentists often abdicate rather than delegate responsibilities, leading to inefficient practices. Joined by Brett Wilson from Digital Doc, they explore how leveraging digital technology and improving patient communication can enhance case acceptance and allow dentists to focus on more profitable, fulfilling procedures. They emphasize the importance of photography, financial options, and strategic communication to avoid the "crown of the year club" and instead offer comprehensive care.

In this episode of The Millennial Dentist podcast, Dr. Sully Sullivan talks about how making changes in your dental practice can lead to better success. He explains that if you want your practice to run differently and achieve better outcomes, you need to change how you do things. This includes offering comprehensive patient financing, using better diagnostic tools, improving communication with patients, and adjusting your scheduling. By doing so, you can move from simple, insurance-based dentistry to more complex and profitable procedures. Dr. Sullivan also shares insights from the 3D Treatment Planning course and introduces the new 3D Dentists app, which provides helpful resources and courses

In this episode of the Millennial Dentist Podcast, I shared how people are willing to pay extra to receive outputs faster, and how we could optimize this for our business. It's incredible to consider that we could increase our earnings by offering faster services compared to their current status. A line from Jeff Bezos changed my mindset: "Americans will always want their product faster, and they will always want it cheap."
That’s when I started implementing it to my business, how could I offer the same process to the patients. Earn more learning the value of time and how it can sometimes be more important than money. By offering faster options and asking simple questions, we can make dental visits better for everyone.

In this episode of the Millennial Dentists Podcast, Tbone and I discussed the reasons why we lose our patients to other dentists. This is not a new phenomenon in dentistry; our patients either choose to replace us or new patients come in from other practices. This topic is painful, especially when a long-time patient decides to switch to another practice. Multiple skill-related issues contribute to this problem. We firmly believe that communication is the key to success. Through effective communication, we can address any anxieties patients may have regarding dental treatment.
