If you don’t receive good support from your team it’s impossible for a dentist to work efficiently.
At a seminar break recently I was chatting with a dentist. I made the point that being able to set up rapidly for procedures is a vital part of being efficient. Time spent waiting for instruments equals lost productivity.
The dentist told me an amazing story. He said that whenever he needs to start a root filling it takes his team 15 minutes to get everything ready to go. What a waste of time! That unfortunate dentist runs late whenever a patient opts to save their tooth.
In future blog posts I’ll show you how to do instant set-up for procedures. You can be fully set up for a root filling in less than 10 seconds.
