Hey Doc,
I'll keep this week's newsletter short.
A lot of people have been asking me to bring back one of my original programs because they said they wanted a starter program where they could still gain confidence with aligners but at a more approachable price point...
I fought it for the longest time because I thought everyone wanted ALL of the value and support that comes with Aligner Launchpad (hence the investment amount)
But I realized this was ME thinking about ME.
And you are not me.
We are different and that's what makes each of us awesome.
Since you subscribed to my newsletter - I know you are a believer and I wanted to give you a heads up before I tell everyone else...
So if you want the CORE curriculum that has helped over 100 dentists gain confidence with Aligners PLUS community support and the resources you need to start aligners...

That was not a typo.
That is less than the price of Apple Airpod Pros...
I told you guys I wanted to make aligner training accessible to all - I just needed it to make sense.
I think you'll like this a lot.
Not sure how long I will keep this up - the more interest there is the better but I figured I would let you know what I have been working on.

Incorporating clear aligners into a general dental practice can be a great way to expand services and meet the growing demand for aesthetic orthodontic solutions. Here are the top 5 tips for general dentists who want to include clear aligners in their practice:
Gain Comprehensive Training and Certification:
Before offering clear aligners, it's crucial to undergo thorough training and obtain certification from the manufacturers of the aligner systems (like Invisalign, ClearCorrect, etc.). This ensures that you understand the mechanics of clear aligners, case selection, treatment planning, and troubleshooting. Many companies provide comprehensive training programs that include hands-on workshops and online modules.
Understand Case Selection and Limitations:
Clear aligners are not suitable for all orthodontic cases. It’s important to know which cases are ideal for clear aligners and which ones require traditional orthodontic approaches. Limitations could include the degree of tooth rotation, large gaps, or severe malocclusions. Proper case selection is crucial to achieve successful outcomes and patient satisfaction.
Invest in Necessary Technology:
Implementing clear aligner therapy often requires specific technological tools, such as digital scanners, 3D printers, and advanced imaging software. Digital scanners, for example, can replace traditional impressions, providing a more comfortable experience for the patient and more accurate data for aligner fabrication.
Develop a Marketing Strategy:
Once you’re ready to offer clear aligners, create a marketing plan to promote this new service to your existing and potential patients. This could include updating your website, social media advertising, informational brochures, and special launch offers. Highlight the benefits of clear aligners, such as their near-invisibility and convenience, to attract interested patients.
Continuously Update Your Knowledge and Skills:
Orthodontic treatment techniques, including those involving clear aligners, are constantly evolving. Regularly attend professional development courses, seminars, and workshops to stay updated on the latest advancements and research in clear aligner technology. This will ensure that you are providing the best possible care to your patients and maximizing the success of your treatments.

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.

If you have more than one priority, they are not priorities. They are a wishlist. I used to write down 10 or more things I wanted to accomplish every day. By the end of the day, I felt busy. But I did not feel accomplished. Now my list usually has two or three things. That is it. Why? Because I am clearer on my goals. We think we need to be doing all the things. We do not. Being busy is easy. Being productive is harder. hink about it like this. Doing 20 fillings in a day feels busy. Starting...
