Dental providers are often unsure how to leverage the hygiene department and grow the business. There’s never been a better time to revolutionize this approach! Tiffany Wuebben, RDH, shares systematic methods that combat today’s dental practice challenges, support patient health, and significantly improve career satisfaction and the financial success of the practice. In this course, we will engage in a collaborative approach to developing the mission/vision and patient care protocols for the hygiene-driven practice. We’ll also discuss a method to revolutionize your hygiene schedule with a 100% reappointment rate. Next, we’ll explore the steps to increase capacity through patient advocacy, recall, reactivation, reviews, and better patient-practice relationships. We will also help you to recognize adjunct procedures that boost patient care and identify empowering practice strategies that transform the hygienist into a true “Hygienepreneur.” Finally, we’ll highlight the proactive steps that professionals can take to build a thriving “hygiene practice within a practice” and develop the knowledge and skills to build a strong hygiene department, leading to better clinical outcomes, greater case acceptance, all while maximizing the practice potential.
