Tired of the guessing game in your practice management? This essential episode of Dental Unscripted pulls back the curtain on the raw data driving -- or should we say -- stalling dental practices nationwide. We bring in Steven Jensen from Dental Intelligence, a leader in dental practice analytics, to reveal the most critical trends affecting your profitability. We cover these 4 major data points in detail!

• The Patient Attrition Crisis: Discover why industry patient growth is flat (around 1.8% per year ) even when you're getting new patients. We show you how the rate of cancellations and no-shows has nearly doubled, pushing patients into an "unscheduled la-la land".
• The Case Acceptance Collapse: Learn about the steep decline in treatment dollar acceptance, which has fallen from approximately 46% to the 29%–33% range in just a few years.
• The $24,000 Difference: Hear a real-world example of how tracking just three key metrics by provider revealed a 14% difference in case acceptance between hygienists, representing a potential $24,000 gap in doctor production.
• From Insight to Action: The conversation moves beyond the "what" and addresses the "how." The hosts and Steven discuss using morning huddles and analytical dashboards to implement new systems that dramatically improve patient retention, treatment acceptance, and overall profitability.

Whether you're struggling to pay bills, scaling, or just want more in your paycheck... leveraging this level of data is the best way to get in the game. This episode provides the intelligence (pun intended) that you need, and the steps to act on it.
