Does Public Speaking Make You Nervous?

Hey Friends, I got caught up last week and was not able to send out a newsletter - apologies. I was at my cousin's wedding in Jacksonville, FL and it was hard to step away from the festivities to shoot out an email. When I started this newsletter my goal was to provide weekly value and also insight into aligners but also my life. I strongly believe in the power of sharing and transparency so I hope to do it as much as possible with you. I am grateful for you being here and I hope this newsletter has not disappointed. Something I am working on is drafting my speech for next week's event: Dentistry's Got Talent It is a speaking competition in New Orleans and I am very excited to be able to have 7 mins to deliver my message in a Ted Talk style. I am not nervous - I am excited. But I sure as hell know my heart is going to be RACING before I go on the stage LOL I will be talking about how dentists and orthodontists can work together to treat more patients and improve their own lives while doing so. (something I am passionate about if you didn't know by now ;) I believe having an abundance mindset can unlock so much potential in our field and I hope to share this message with as many people as possible! Also if you watch and vote you can help me win! There will be 49 other great speakers and I believe you will get CE credit as well.

If you’re unsure about pricing… you’ll always undercharge. I did that for months. I priced low because I was scared to lose the case. But that just led to resentment — more work, less profit, no sustainability. Then I switched to a model that made sense — for me and the patient. Here’s how I price aligners now: Take your lab fee (let’s say $1,200–$1,800) Multiply it by 3x for your total fee — that builds in profit, chairtime, and refinements Script the value confidently: “This is designed to...
Social media makes it feel like every dentist is doing 10+ aligner cases a month. And if you haven’t started… it feels like you’ve missed the boat. I felt that too. I waited longer than I should’ve — and beat myself up about it. But once I got the right support, I made up for lost time fast. If that’s where you’re at, here’s what I’d focus on first: Pick 1 case you feel good about and commit to starting it this month Block time to learn: 30 minutes/week on just case selection + planning Stop...
You’re losing money by paying your associates to do Clear Aligners.I see a lot of practices making this mistake.Here’s why it’s costing you—and how to fix it. 👇🏽When I first saw a practice using the Production Frontload model for paying associates, it seemed logical:• Associate starts the case, earns 30% of production.• Lab bill?
