    Evolve Your Dental Practice into a Wellness Center

    Add the health/medical dimension to your practice

    Dentists know the connection between oral health and overall health. Dental practices can, and should, help protect patients from dangerous medical conditions. This can increase patient treatment acceptance, generate quality referrals from physicians, and add a sizeable amount of new production to the practice’s schedule every month.

    Behaving more like a Wellness Center not only changes your relationship with your patients, but your practice can now bill to medical insurance – just like oral surgeons have done for decades.  Practitioners will find it rewarding both emotionally and financially to work with patients to address perio disease, Sleep Apnea , TMD and other conditions. Dental practices can add new diagnostic tools and treatments to support the general health of patients and increase profits.

    Course Objective:

    • Overview of new treatments and diagnostic tools
    • Teach participants how to optimize clinical results through treatment design by adding technology such as laser periodontal treatment
    • Understand diagnosis and use of skills to increase insurance payments

    Course Outcome:

    • Learn how to communication with patients about new treatment
    • Understand how dental/medical coding will help and increase  your coding skills
    • Increase the number of patients who accept treatment and add a new referral source – MDs!
