You're HIDING behind insurance plans


Hey Friends,

I’ve seen so many dentists use insurance as an excuse for why they can’t do more or charge what they’re worth.

They say things like, “I can’t charge more because insurance won’t cover it.”

But here’s the truth—if you truly believed in yourself and your abilities, you wouldn’t need to hide behind insurance.

When you lean into your personal brand and build confidence in your skills, you’ll attract your dream patients.

These are the patients who seek you out for your expertise, not because you take their insurance.

They come to you because they value what you do, not because you’re just another provider on a list.
If you want to take your practice to the next level, it’s time to stop relying on insurance as a crutch and start leaning into your strengths.

Your dream patients are out there waiting for you—you just have to believe you’re worth it.

Straight Talk

Let’s cut to the chase—most dentists waste chair time with aligners because they have no system in place. If you’re finding aligners more of a headache than a help, you might be falling into these traps:

✅ Taking on complex cases that drag on for 12+ months.
✅ Bringing patients back for endless consults to "review the case."
✅ Skipping flexible financing options or refusing to start until they pay $1500 upfront.
✅ Having the doctor handle every attachment placement.
✅ Scheduling inconsistent appointments with no structure.
✅ Bringing patients back every few weeks for pointless “check-ins.”

Sound familiar? These habits don’t just waste time—they frustrate your team and burn through your profits. Aligners should be a streamlined, efficient process—not a constant drain on resources.

If you’re ready to make aligners work for you (not the other way around), it’s time to rethink your approach. Simplify your workflow, stick to predictable cases, delegate tasks, and give your patients the experience they deserve. When done right, aligners can be one of the most profitable procedures in your practice.


Your Friend,

Hey Friends, You're focusing on the wrong thing. If you want to grow your practice you need to focus on 1 thing. A better website is not the answer. A new logo is not the answer. Another team member is not the answer. A new phone service is not the answer. An AI radiograph tool is not the answer. Another continuum is not the answer. Asking what your friend is doing (who is also struggling) is not the answer. The work... is the answer. I'm talking about the work that you're avoiding. You've...

Hey Friends, You don't need all the money upfront to do aligners. When is the last time you paid for something outright? Nowadays everyone is either on a monthly subscription or some type of payment plan where they can stretch out payments. It makes sense. Why tie up your cash if you don't need to? Also - why create a barrier where one is not needed? What if you could let your patients go home and "think about it" or "talk to their spouse" and still get more patients to start treatment just...
