‘Making It!’ is designed to outline a pathway for success and happiness in dental practice. The course is largely about relationships and communicating with patients, with staff, with colleagues and with the community at large. Rather than having the focus of your practice being the need for an ever-increasing flow of new patients, the course will explore methods of maximizing the treatment of each patient. Developing trust and respect from your patients and from your staff will become the foundation of your practice and will ultimately contribute to practice growth and stability. This does not happen by accident; cookbook formulas and a focus on statistics may help initially, but will ultimately break down if you do not understand how to generate the trust and respect you deserve as a dentist. The key to a successful career is not a crown with perfect margins or a perfectly positioned implant, it is having the interpersonal skills that will enable your patients and your staff to appreciate your clinical skills, along with an appreciation on your part how everything you do impacts everything else in your professional and personal life.
The strategies you will learn will from this course will contribute to your personal and professional growth, whether you practice in a traditional private practice, a group practice or a corporately structured practice. The course will benefit dentists, specialists, dental assistants and dental hygienists and the entire staff.
