Text Case Studies
Case 1
A mature practice, (20+ years) treating 2500 patients with 4 operatories:
Before our training, this practice had 4 hygiene-days per week, producing monthly hygiene revenue of $10,138. While treating the moderate levels (4 quadrants) of periodontal disease in-office, the hygienists referred their most advanced cases to specialists. Our customized program of training, (3-day in-office, one follow-up day, phone support,) structured the early- stage periodontal disease diagnosis, treatment planning and billing. It also established a system of chart re-activation and long-term continuing-care. Since completing our training, the hygiene practice has doubled its hygiene days, and now generates $39,276 per month in hygiene production with a case acceptance rate of 98%.
Increase $29,138 monthly or 287%

Case 2
A 15 year-old practice with 1300 patients:
The hygienist told us, "I know that we can do a better job of controlling periodontal disease. We've attended soft tissue management seminars, but the implementation is difficult and our team isn't involved. It just hasn't worked as well as I know it can. It's my responsibility to make changes, but we're only doing a few of the things we learned and we aren't getting results." This practice was generating $9,307 in hygiene revenue per month from 5 hygiene-days per week. Our training focused on treatment planning, office communication and training. When we finished, the hygienists understood case presentation and the successful treatment of periodontal disease. This 3-operatory practice (8 patients a day per hygienist, 7 hygiene-days per week) now averages $21,698 in hygiene production each month with a case acceptance of 98%.
Increase $12,391 monthly or 133%
 

Case 3
A progressive 2000-patient practice, using the latest technology:
In 1993 this office -- the majority of its team had been with the practice 15 years -- generated $10,395 in hygiene revenue a month with 6 hygiene-days a week. While the team worked with the latest equipment in a beautifully redecorated environment, its procedures were the same ones it had used for years. Because the hygienists felt uneasy addressing periodontal disease, (they felt the patients perception would be: this happened "all of a sudden") we tailored our training toward addressing the comfort levels of team. We provided the communication skills, case presentation techniques, financial consultations and billing information to make the transition smooth and comfortable for both team and patients. Our implementation process was designed to "ease" patients into needed periodontal care, lest they think it had "suddenly come out of the blue." The result is a happy practice, currently producing an average of $21,912 in hygiene production per month with a case acceptance rate of 97%.
Increase $11,517 monthly or 111%
 

Case 4
An efficient 10 hygiene-day-per-week practice, with 6 operatories:
Having 2700 patients, this $20,000-per-month hygiene revenue practice had openings in hygiene. In addition, its existing periodontal program wasn't efficient. The hygienists realized that they were addressing periodontal disease at a more moderate level because they weren't comfortable with discussing early treatment. The front office was unclear how to bill insurance in the earlier stages. They also had a high level of cancellations and failures. Our training fine-tuned their skills, teaching them to feel at ease treating periodontal disease at all levels. They learned to schedule productive, stress-free days, while reducing their cancellations and failures. The office size and schedule (7 patients per day) dictated that we target certain patients for current treatment, while "planting seeds" in the rest that they should begin treatment in 3 months. The team increased its hygiene-days to 12, while each hygienist continued seeing 7 patients per day. As a result, the practice's monthly hygiene revenue increased to $32,000.
Increase $12,000 monthly or 60%
