    1063: Metric Mondays: Production Gaps Usually Start in the Schedule, Not the Operatory - Ariel Siegel

    Production gaps are often blamed on low case acceptance or insufficient diagnosis, but the real issue may begin with how the schedule is structured, protected, and maintained. In this episode, Kirk Behrendt talks with dental practice coach Ariel Siegel about identifying whether lost production begins in the schedule or the operatory. You will learn how reappointment systems, downtime monitoring, intentional scheduling, and future schedule protection can create more consistent production and smoother clinical days. To understand where production gaps begin and what your team can do about them, listen to Episode 1063 of The Best Practices Show! Main Takeaways Production problems may result from scheduling systems even when diagnosis and treatment acceptance remain strong.Constantly filling last-minute openings prevents administrative team members from completing other production-building activities.Filling schedule gaps with unsuitable appointments can disrupt the intended flow and energy of the clinical day.Strong reappointment systems help patients understand why they are returning and reduce future cancellations.Protecting the future schedule allows the team to maintain production goals and minimize bottlenecks.Monitoring doctor and hygiene downtime reveals both large openings and smaller gaps that accumulate throughout the day.Designing the schedule around provider energy and appointment type supports more consistent monthly production and revenue. Snippets: 00:00 Metric Mondays Intro 01:19 Schedule vs Operatory 02:20 Why Gaps Happen 03:28 When It Goes Wrong 04:26 Scramble Fill Trap 06:51 Getting It Right 07:57 Protect Future Schedule 09:17 Design Around Energy 10:07 Action Steps Today 11:17 Resources and Wrap Up 11:57 Final Thanks and Outro Guest Bio/Guest Resources: Ariel has a master’s in healthcare administration and several years of dental experience in all aspects of the administrative roles within the dental office.

    1062: Solutions for the Front Office Bottleneck - Richard May

    Missed calls, staffing shortages, and phone fatigue can create a front office bottleneck that affects both the patient experience and practice production. In this episode, Kirk Behrendt speaks with Richard May of Mango Voice about how modern VoIP systems and AI receptionists can help dental practices answer more calls, streamline scheduling, document patient conversations, and reduce administrative workload without eliminating the human relationships patients need. Learn where AI is most useful, which conversations should remain with team members, and how practices can evaluate these tools responsibly. To improve your phone workflow and reduce pressure on your front office, listen to Episode 1062 of The Best Practices Show! Main Takeaways: Front office bottlenecks occur when team members must manage ringing phones, arriving patients, scheduling requests, insurance questions, and payments at the same time.Missed calls can represent lost new-patient opportunities and make it difficult for practices to measure the production they are losing.An AI receptionist can answer simultaneous calls, schedule selected appointments, respond to common questions, and filter spam or irrelevant calls.AI tools should be customized with accurate practice information and used as an extension of the team rather than a replacement for every human interaction.Phone integrations with practice management software can identify callers, open patient profiles, create conversation summaries, and reduce manual documentation.Payment disputes, detailed insurance questions, sensitive family concerns, and treatment conversations still require human judgment and empathy.Modern VoIP systems can use mobile applications and cellular data to keep business calls operating during an internet outage. Snippets: 00:00 The front office bottleneck in dental practices. 01:27 Meet Richard May 04:18 How competing front office demands create workflow bottlenecks. 06:21 Phone fatigue and the impact of missed calls. 08:33 How an AI receptionist handles simultaneous and after-hours calls. 10:09 Addressing concerns about AI representing the practice. 15:09 Why dentists underestimate the importance of their phone systems. 16:39 How patient expectations influence which dental practice they choose. 19:10 Using transcripts, keyword searches, and automated patient notes. 21:21 The staffing crisis and AI-supported administrative work. 23:26 Which tasks should remain human. 26:40 How AI can triage after-hours and emergency calls. 29:20 How VoIP reliability and mobile applications have improved. 31:32 Final considerations for adopting AI in the dental practice. 34:24 How to test Margo and schedule a Mango Voice demonstration. Guest Bio/Guest Resources Richard has had a fulfilling career in public health, where he spent a decade dedicated to improving community wellness, health education, and preventive care. His work in public health allowed him to make a tangible difference, positively impacting lives and communities, a passion that continues to drive him. Following his public health career, Richard joined Mango, bringing his dedication to health and wellness into a new professional chapter.

    1060: Metric Mondays: Do We Actually Need More Patients– or Better Utilization? - Ariel Siegel

    Most dentists believe they need more new patients, but the real problem may be how well they are using the patients, providers, and chair time they already have. In this episode, Kirk Behrendt brings back Ariel Siegel, ACT Dental coach, to explain why active patient count, pre-appointment percentage, capacity utilization, and annual patient value matter before investing in new patient growth. Learn how to identify whether your practice has a patient problem or a utilization problem, and how to start improving schedule efficiency with the data you already have. To grow more predictably with the patients already in your practice, listen to Episode 1060 of The Best Practices Show! Main Takeaways: Practices should evaluate utilization of current patients and provider capacity before pursuing more new patients.New patients can add pressure because phone calls, relationship building, and appointments require more time and energy.A healthy active patient count is often around 1,200 to 1,500 patients per provider.Unscheduled active patients and low pre-appointment rates reveal opportunities within the existing patient base.Chair time utilization around 90% to 95% creates productive schedules while leaving some flexibility.Annual patient value helps determine whether a practice needs more patients or better production per patient.Capacity tracking should be reviewed consistently so each provider column has accountability. Snippets: 00:00 Metric Mondays Intro 01:50 Meet Ariel Siegel 02:14 More Patients Myth 04:18 Active Patient Benchmarks 08:07 When Utilization Fails 10:33 Redefining Growth 11:56 Capacity Utilization Targets 14:36 Action Plan With APV 18:06 Vision And Wrap Up 18:33 Final Goodbye Guest Bio/Guest Resources: Ariel has a master’s in healthcare administration and several years of dental experience in all aspects of the administrative roles within the dental office.

    1059: How Digital Workflow Innovations Are Transforming Aligner Treatment in 2026 - Dr. Maria Jose Blanco Solis

    Digital workflows are changing how dentists select, plan, monitor, and communicate clear aligner treatment. In this episode, Kirk Behrendt brings back Dr. Maria Jose Blanco Solis, private practice dentist and clear aligner educator, to discuss how digital workflow innovations are transforming aligner treatment in 2026. You will learn how to evaluate aligner case complexity, monitor tracking and compliance, use auxiliary techniques, manage retention protocols, and think about aligners as part of a broader functional and preventive approach to dentistry. To understand how to make aligner workflows more predictable and practical in your practice, listen to Episode 1059 of The Best Practices Show! Main Takeaways: Clear aligners have expanded from simple aesthetic cases to more complex Class II, Class III, surgical, and multidisciplinary treatment plans.Case selection should include evaluation of occlusion, arch form, profile, crossbites, growth status, recession, and bone support.CBCT, STL files, and complete diagnostic records give doctors better control and confidence when planning aligner treatment.Monitoring appointments should focus on aligner fit, attachment integrity, tracking gaps, programmed IPR, and occlusal contacts.Patient compliance remains essential because aligners generally require 22 hours of daily wear.Auxiliary techniques such as buttons, elastics, TADs, and bootstrap mechanics can improve movement predictability in moderate and severe cases.Retention protocols should account for occlusal stability and patient compliance, especially when deciding between clear retainers and lingual wires. Snippets: 00:00 Welcome And Guest Intro 02:11 Meet Dr Mari Jose 03:14 Aligners In 2026 05:24 Case Selection Basics 06:55 Monitoring And Tracking 10:37 Doctor Coaching Support 11:13 Micronutrients And Compliance 13:03 Retainers And Stability 14:45 Aux Techniques And Elastics 16:32 Posterior Open Bite Causes 18:24 Retainer Wear Schedule 19:52 Future Of Aligner Care 22:20 Final Tips And Records 23:14 Contact Info And Spark 24:28 The Exchange Event Preview 25:00 Final thoughts on case selection, auxiliary techniques, and live case alignment.

    1058: Why Most Dental Practices Fail When Hiring Associates - Cassie Tallon

    Hiring and keeping an associate sounds simple until the interview process, compensation questions, and culture-fit issues start to derail everything. In this episode, Kirk Behrendt brings on Cassie Tallon, an operations expert and founder of The Fractional Match, to explain why most dental practices fail when hiring associates and what to do differently. You’ll learn how to evaluate fit beyond clinical skills, how to set compensation expectations with transparency, why paying on collections matters, and how to prepare your practice so an associate can actually succeed and stay. Listen to Episode 1058 of The Best Practices Show! Main Takeaways: Decide whether you want an associate purely for production or someone you will develop into a leader and potential legacy successor.Use a recruitment service instead of posting a job yourself without understanding today’s compensation models and contract pitfalls.Evaluate relational and empathetic patient-care philosophy early, not just clinical procedure capability.Confirm the associate is coachable and willing to be led during onboarding, not just eager to produce immediately.Start onboarding with financial clarity—how the P&L works and how pay is calculated—to prevent distrust and turnover.Pay associates on collections to tie compensation to real revenue and reinforce documentation, billing, and follow-through habits.Fix patient mix, services, and marketing before hiring an associate instead of expecting the associate to solve a broken model.
