Special List #1: What They Don’t Tell You About Running a Dental Practice

There’s no such thing as autopilot when it comes to running a dental practice. Every day brings new challenges, and there’s no such thing as a one-size-fits-all solution. 

Hosts Cameron Full, Dr. Michael Seda, and Dr. Jason Souyias bring their combined decades of failures and wins in the dental practice management world to help you problem solve and do what best fits your practice.

From hiring smarter to improving case acceptance, tracking the right data, and navigating the ups and downs of ownership, Cameron, Michael and Jason share their “special lists” of hard-earned lessons and honest advice to help you build a thriving practice.
