Absolutely, if you think you can\u2019t do it, then of course you are right. You are standing in your own way of belief and every day you see your patients you pre-judge them, you pull back and downsize their treatment, you present to them step-by-step dentistry and you wonder why you never have any big cases.<\/p>\n<p>I will tell you this, you won\u2019t get rich going one tooth at a time because you will run out of time, you will run out of space, and you will run out of energy.<\/p>\n<p>Sure, there are models out there, the models that people try to force you into where the industry drives you into the ground in order to ramp up your volume of patients and burden you with slim profit margins to keep under their control of doing single tooth dentistry \u2013 but \u2013 for smart dentists this just isn\u2019t acceptable.<\/p>\n<p>You must break free from this thinking that your patients won\u2019t accept complete comprehensive care. They will and I\u2019m here to prove it to you.<\/p>\n<p>Myth #6 \u2013 That your patients don\u2019t have any money\u2026<\/p>\n<p>Good news \u2013 every Dentist in America says that \u2013 and they are all wrong.<\/p>\n<p>Of course there are patients who do not have any money and guess what they aren\u2019t going to the dentist. People have money and, as I always have to remind my Clients, they just aren\u2019t giving it to you.<\/p>\n<p>Relax. Money is not the problem, it\u2019s all around us, it\u2019s everywhere, money is not the problem. Stop, rewind, reverse and go back to BELIEF because it all stimulates from what you believe is possible and what you are expecting to get.<\/p>\n<p>Myth #7 \u2013 The biggest way you can shoot yourself in the foot and diminish the value of your life\u2019s work is believing that you are going to someday sell your practice and rely on that to retire and put away as much money into the back as possible and make-up for all the years that you didn\u2019t max-out your retirement contributions.<\/p>\n<p>Not going to happen, and it\u2019s a very dumb and na\u00efve idea.<\/p>\n<p>Let me tell you why.<\/p>\n<p>First, when you sell your practice for a lot of money you do realize you are going to have to share that with someone\u2026that person is called the big bad government so it\u2019s not going to be as big of a check as you anticipate, even if you do actually manage to get very lucky and cash out with a big figure.<\/p>\n<p>Second, there is no way on earth, unless you are already almost dead, that you will sell your practice for enough money to retire on and live at the same level of lifestyle you are doing now\u2026 mainly because when you stop working, guess what, you spend more money and you need more to keep you busy and occupied. When you have your dental practice to rely on, you expense more things than you will ever admit or realize through your cash cow known as your dental practice.<\/p>\n<p>When you sell, you lose your alibi, your expense account, and your ATM machine.<\/p>\n<p>Third, selling your practice is like selling a piece of real estate \u2013 once it\u2019s gone you never have it anymore.<\/p>\n<p>The idea of selling it, getting a little money then having the associate who bought it pay you over time only works if you stay involved in some way and most likely you just aren\u2019t going to find someone who can pay you what it\u2019s really worth.<\/p>\n<p>Fourth, on the flip side, if you can sell your practice and add the money to an already healthy retirement then guess what \u2013 you didn\u2019t need to sell it anyways \u2013 so now you can make a much better decision and get more value for it.<\/p>\n<p>The bottom line is this\u2026when you are doing BIG DENTISTRY, not only can you get a lot more money for your practice because there is more profit to show for it but you accelerate your retirement so much faster because of the icing on the cake. Now you have so many more options when it comes to selling your practice and therefore you can negotiate better, you can be in control and you can maximize your savings and wealth BEFORE you sell so you are not at the mercy of your health, the market, the bank, or anyone else.<\/p>\n<p>Selling your practice should be a luxury not a necessity, should be a bonus at the end of a great career not a retirement strategy. This is only possible when you are getting more out of you Practice every single month by providing big dentistry.<\/p>\n<p>Ok, here we go, the big one, myth number 8th.<\/p>\n<p>What else could there possibly be left? Simple.<\/p>\n<p>Myth #8 \u2013 That it\u2019s hard to do\u2026<\/p>\n<p>Nope. It\u2019s not. Actually it\u2019s so much easier than you could ever imagine.<\/p>\n<p>Guess why?!<\/p>\n<p>Because you can start immediately, you can start right now, just being you.<\/p>\n<p>You don\u2019t need to expand, you don\u2019t need equipment, you don\u2019t need to hire or fire anyone, you don\u2019t need more patients, you don\u2019t need to spend a bunch of money.<\/p>\n<p>Nothing.<\/p>\n<p>All you need is a plan, an orchestrated deliberate custom designed planned to take you where you are today and guide you to where you want to be.<\/p>\n<p>Your Small Practice Revolution (no matter how big or small your practice is) will lead you to BIG DENTISTRY PROFITS is a formulaic approach to reverse engineering your success in 5 specific steps.<\/p>\n<p>And I\u2019m going to unveil this exact proven method that absolutely any Dentist in any city or town doing any type of dentistry they choose can create and achieve big dentistry profits without expanding overhead, by breaking free from the dependence on insurance, and exploding your practice profits no matter how big or small your location is and no matter who much your hourly value is today or your gross production was last week, last month or last year.<\/p>\n<p>I call this The Small Practice Revolution, taking back control over your Dental Practice Destiny and achieving BIG DENTISTRY PROFITS not matter the size of your practice, team, treatment rooms, patient base or anything else.<\/p>\n<p>This is more than a mindset, this is more than another system\u2026<\/p>\n<p>This is not a program, a bright shiny object, a seminar, or anything else\u2026<\/p>\n<p>This is a movement \u2013 this is a real tangible practice business model that puts you back in control of your life, your dentistry, your practice, your patients, your money!<\/p>\n<p>The only question is &#8211;<\/p>\n<p>Will you step up or will you keep getting walked on? Will you accept the challenge or continue to compromise and give in at the mercy of the industry? You can break the cycle of relying on the ideas of the evil forces that have destroyed the integrity and foundation of independent dentists and small practices all over our great country.<\/p>\n<p>You do have to decide for yourself<\/p>\n<p>But You do not have to do it alone<\/p>\n<p>We can do it together<\/p>\n<p>The Revolution Begins March 17th<\/p>\n<p>Email your name and address to: info@DentalSuccessToday.com to get on the VIP list where you\u2019ll be the first to receive the practice transforming Big Dentistry Small Practice Blueprint Report. Now is the time to join the movement, prepare for the small practice revolution and get ready for big dentistry in your practice!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Continued from last week\u2026buckle up BREAKING THROUGH TO BIG PROFITS &#8211; 8 Myths about \u2018Small\u2019 Practices Myth #5 \u2013 Here\u2019s the biggest myth you have ever been told about creating really big dentistry and really big profits in your Dental Practice, no matter how big or small your building, your number of chairs, your team&#8230;  <a href=\"https:\/\/dentalsuccesstoday.com\/blog\/part-2-8-myths-about-small-practices\/\" title=\"Read Part 2: 8 Myths About \u2018Small\u2019 Practices\">Read more &raquo;<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-446","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-dental-success"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Part 2: 8 Myths About \u2018Small\u2019 Practices<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/dentalsuccesstoday.com\/blog\/part-2-8-myths-about-small-practices\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Part 2: 8 Myths About \u2018Small\u2019 Practices\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Continued from last week\u2026buckle up BREAKING THROUGH TO BIG PROFITS &#8211; 8 Myths about \u2018Small\u2019 Practices Myth #5 \u2013 Here\u2019s the biggest myth you have ever been told about creating really big dentistry and really big profits in your Dental Practice, no matter how big or small your building, your number of chairs, your team...
