If you’re wondering how your dental practice compares nationally, or just want to know what the latest trends are in the sector, today’s show is a must-listen as we welcome Beth Gaddis, Editor in Chief at Planet DDS, to share insights from the company’s 2025 Dental Industry Outlook Report based on data collected from the thousands of practices it serves with software solutions. Headlining the findings is that AI and automation are impacting everything, from the patient journey to insurance verification to claims processing and more, presenting opportunities for improvement of business practices. “Being able to automate the transfer of data so that team members don't have to leave what they're doing and can keep everything within the same ecosystem allows them to be more efficient than ever before,” she tells Filling You In hosts Dr. Anushka Gaglani and Dr. Abhishek Nagaraj. The report is also loaded with valuable benchmarks of key metrics such as average cancellation rates, number of new patients per month, case acceptance rates and much more.
This highly insightful interview with Beth also covers:
- How the “Gig Economy” model is coming to dentistry
- New options for patient financing
- How her background in journalism influences her work
