Dentists: The Ultimate Entrepreneurs


Hey Friends,

As dentists, we’re the ultimate entrepreneurs.

We wear all the hats—clinician, business owner, marketer, team leader, and more.

It’s a lot to juggle, but that’s what makes us so resilient and versatile.

However, here’s my advice: don’t try to do everything on your own forever.

If you want to grow, you need to invest in leveling up your skills or delegate some of those hats to others.

Whether it’s training in new procedures or hiring the right people to manage the business side of things, it’s about working smarter, not harder.

You’ve got the foundation.

Now, make sure you’re setting yourself up for long-term success by focusing on where you bring the most value and building a team around you to handle the rest.

Hope you have a good new years celebration - see you next year!

Straight Talk

I’ve had the privilege of training over 190 dentists on clear aligners. Each one came in with a unique perspective, but an interesting pattern always emerged:

👉 Beginners are trying to figure out what attachments even are.
👉 Intermediates have a few cases going but struggle with patient communication.
👉 Advanced dentists are confidently resolving crowding and delivering consistent results.
👉 Masters have cracked the code—scaling aligners across their practice with workflows that run like clockwork.

Here’s the question: Where are you now?

The truth is, no matter where you’re starting, there’s a path to mastery.

Beginners need systems, intermediates need strategies, and advanced dentists need scaling solutions.

The good news?

You don’t have to figure it out alone.

Aligners are transformative—for your patients and your practice. When you get it right, they’re not just another offering; they become a cornerstone of your growth.

Let’s figure out your next step together.


Your Friend,

Most dentists think we need to do it all. We are prideful. We think we are the best. We assume everyone else should just figure it out. We are wrong. People do not need more operators. They need leadership. Leadership is not doing the work. Leadership is showing people what good looks like and guiding them there. You cannot expect a new hire to know what to do. You cannot expect them to know the difference between right and wrong. You have to onboard them so they understand what is required...

When you solve one problem, you create another. We see this all the time with doctors learning aligners. First, they want help with case selection. Then they want help with case acceptance. Then they want help with setup. Then delivery. Then refinements. Then finishing. That is not a bad thing. That is progress. The same thing happens with patients. You propose aligners to improve oral health. You solve the alignment problem. Now the patient notices things. The shape of their teeth. The...

I have expanded my team and I am nervous. We are no longer just helping solo docs with aligners. We are now supporting associates at DSOs too. This hits deep for me. I used to be an associate at a DSO with no mentorship and no guidance. I had to find it and build it myself. DSOs have resources. They just struggle to deploy them in a way that actually helps doctors. That is the gap we are filling. Supporting doctors clinically while working with leadership to scale aligners responsibly.
