Debbie Bittke, RDH, BS, founder of Dental Practice Solutions sat down with Jacqueline Hurley, Director of Dental Zing (part of eAssist and Practice Booster) to talk about the hygiene department.

As you listen to their conversation, you will gain knowledge as a practice owner about how to be the leader of your dental practice.

Debbie encourages practice owners to know their WHY—WHY they do what they do. This helps to remove that feeling of burnout dental professionals feel so often.

As you listen, you will hear what the doctor’s role is so they are not “doing it all!”

Listen and learn how to set expectations so you can focus on providing your best clinical skills instead of feeling the stress of “having to do it all!”

One of the books shared during the podcast is called “Get a Grip” by Gino Wickman. This book is great for identifying the key leaders in your team of employees who will help run your dental practice like a well-oiled machine.

A key phrase Debbie and Jacqueline share is to “Trust the process.”

How can you optimize your dental practice so patients “want what they need”?

The podcast ends with a discussion about a new technology Debbie recommends for dental offices to keep patients returning to the dental office, and it will grow new patient numbers.
