In today’s episode of The Double Your Production Podcast, Dr. John Meis and Wendy Briggs are answering a common question we hear from clients at The Team Training Institute, “Should owner-dentists and associates attend team training days?”
If you’ve ever booked an in-office training day with us, or are considering it in the future, it’s important to know who should be in the room in order to get the best results.
In this episode, you’ll hear Dr. John and Wendy’s thought process behind these decisions and their advice for getting the most out of a training investment.
In Part 3 of this series, Dr. John Meis and Wendy Briggs are sharing the best technology to use to raise case acceptance in your practice.
One of the most important pieces of case acceptance is educating patients and making concerns visual for them. Because patients usually can’t see what’s happening with their teeth, they don’t understand the severity of the disease or decay. If dental offices can make these things visible to patients and improve their awareness of the problems, patients begin to understand the necessity and urgency of treatment and will more readily move forward with needed care.
The tools discussed in this podcast help to make oral health more visual for patients and help dental teams run more smoothly and effectively.
Listen to hear Dr. John and Wendy’s top recommendations.
In Part Two of this series, Dr. John Meis and Wendy Briggs continue to discuss how to raise the case acceptance rate in a dental practice by creating smooth, effective patient handoffs (or trust-transfers).
Patient handoffs are a little-known secret to great case acceptance because they’re an important opportunity to build trust, demonstrate excellence, and ensure understanding with patients. When handoffs are handled poorly, patients lose confidence in the recommended treatment and hesitate to move forward with their needed care. When handoffs are done right, patients are put at ease and more readily accept treatment.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
In this 3-part series, Dr. John Meis and Wendy Briggs are explaining ways to increase the case acceptance rate in a dental practice.
When a practice doesn’t have a well-defined and consistent case acceptance process in place, patients don’t get the information and reassurance they need to move forward with necessary dental care. When this happens, their health declines, the team gets frustrated, and practice performance declines.
But what we’ve learned working with practices across the US is that with a few key systems in place, the case acceptance rate can rise very quickly, leading to healthier patients and a stronger practice.
In part one of this series, you’ll learn:
· How diagnostic inconsistencies hurt patient trust and lower the case acceptance rate
· The importance of clear diagnostic criteria across the team
· How to strengthen patient trust and connection
· How the team can support and echo each other in patient conversations

When you talk with the team about your practice goals and share key performance indicators (KPIs), are they excited and motivated to reach those numbers or do their eyes glaze over?
Today, we're sharing a segment from one of our recent practice growth retreats. In this session, Heather Driscoll is talking about what you can do to create more excitement and energy around your biggest goals.
Very few dental professionals wake up in the morning excited to increase production by a certain percentage or improve accounts receivable. But, they do wake up excited to connect with patients and improve their health. So, it’s the job of the leadership to connect those dots.
In this session, Heather is breaking down exactly how to design a system like this. You’ll learn how to share key metrics without boring the staff and create real momentum around the activities that not only make the biggest difference for the practice but also for patients.

Today, she and Dr. John Meis are sitting down to talk through specific strategies practice owners can use to create a high-performing team and unmatched results in their practices. This unconventional Moneyball approach gives practice owners an edge in the marketplace, allowing them to attract top talent and develop those people into efficient, high-performing team members.
