Here are a few dental tips and ideas to help you, your team, your patients and potential patients smile during the month of May…

Practice Management Tips & Ideas:
Incomplete Treatment Reports – Review reports for any patients with teeth whitening or Ortho treatment planned but not scheduled. Consider a special incentive for them to schedule during the month of May.
Insurance Renewal – Many insurance companies renew their maximum on June 1st. Pull a report of any patients due in hygiene or with incomplete treatment that have benefits remaining and renew in June. Starting now, make Use it or Lose It calls, mail reminders and share on social media.
