Espresso and Naps - An Underrated Combo
|
Hey Friends, Neha and I are taking a much needed vacation this week and made it to Italy! The trip has been fun and relaxing so far - this is what makes what we do so worth it. In my opinion the people of Italy are LIVING. Nobody seems stressed - everyone takes their time. It is super refreshing to be around such a laid back culture that prioritizes spending time with each other and enjoying good food and wine :) This is the first time I have every been to Italy and it is not disappointing one bit. I have however seen everyone and their mother travel to italy via IG stories for the last few years… now it’s our time 😂 So far my favorite thing to do is try different types of “spritzes” and sip on an espresso at random times throughout the day. My next favorite thing to do on vacation is take naps. There are very few things more enjoyable in this life than taking a nap in the middle of the day (or morning) on vacation! Straight TalkEmbrace Comprehensive Digital Planning with Clear Aligners The beauty of clear aligners goes beyond their transparent design. They are part of a digital-driven approach to orthodontics. With the ability to scan, plan, and visualize tooth movements, dentists can create a more collaborative and educational experience for their patients. Here’s how to elevate the patient-care journey with aligners:
By integrating this approach, not only will you solidify your position as a cutting-edge dental practice, but you'll also foster a more engaged, informed, and satisfied patient base. Remember, in the age of clear aligners, it's not just about straightening teeth but also about leveraging technology to deliver comprehensive patient care.

When patients say no to aligners, it’s rarely about money. It’s about trust. Early on, I quoted fees and hoped they’d say yes. But once I started asking better questions and explaining why it mattered, things changed. That's when most of my consults ended with a yes. Try these two shifts to improve your acceptance rate: Ask better questions. Instead of “do you want to straighten your teeth?” ask: “Has anyone ever mentioned your teeth are in an unhealthy position?” Frame the benefits around...
Most docs try to get aligners going on their own. Then feel frustrated when the team doesn’t support it. I was there too. I tried to do everything myself — scanning, educating, managing trays. My assistant was confused, my front desk forgot follow-ups, and cases stalled. When I finally trained my team the right way, everything changed. Here’s how to get your team on board fast: Start with a 15-min huddle: Explain why aligners matter (not just for you — but for patients) Front desk = follow-up...
Every dentist has one fear when starting aligners: “What if this goes wrong?” I remember my first case with rotations and black triangles. It didn’t go as planned. The patient expected perfection. I expected simplicity. We both left disappointed. Then I changed one thing: the way I set expectations. Now I use one simple script at every consult to align goals and avoid future surprises. Here’s the script: “We’re going to make a big difference in your smile — and sometimes, the plan needs to be...
