Then you have to go to work on your patient interaction, engagement, presentation and the psychology of case acceptance\u2026right?<\/p>\n<p>Well, yes and no. At least not at first.<\/p>\n<p>The first step is always going to be to work on yourself and your team\u2019s communication.<\/p>\n<p>And the power of the event experience and the immersion my team and I always create has little to do with the \u201cmaterial\u201d presented (while it is important and you won\u2019t find what we discuss and provide to our doctors and team members anywhere else in this industry, and I mean that and stand behind it).<\/p>\n<p>All the magic is at the table, not on the stage.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s why it works. Because we raise up everyone\u2019s level of awareness of each other and when the dialogue is more congruent and tighter between team members \u2013 less dentistry falls through the cracks.<\/p>\n<p>Remember this: more dentistry is lost in translation, transition, transfer from phone to front door, from reception area to treatment room, from doctor to presentation, from money discussion back out the door and in all of the follow-up \u2026 as team members are not congruent, aligned, on the same page, and synchronized with each other.<\/p>\n<p>Start there and assess yourselves before you spend time trying to fix your patients and you\u2019ll have a foundation for an incredible patient experience that works, converts and results in life-changing treatment every time with every person.<\/p>\n<p>\u2026 One final reminder for my big unveiling of The State of The Industry advanced strategies and important information about the year 2017 and beyond. Start strong, start smart, start ahead of the game and the changes coming your way with this powerful and featured presentation in just a matter of hours.<\/p>\n<p>Go here now and arm yourself for growth, profits and success in the New Year&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/dentistryin2017.com\/\">Register for The State of The Industry Webcast on Tues., Dec 13th &gt;&gt;&gt;<\/a><\/p>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/dentalsuccesstoday.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/f2fd8f06571fe09827ace5fcb31ec1d2.png\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-80\" src=\"https:\/\/dentalsuccesstoday.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/f2fd8f06571fe09827ace5fcb31ec1d2.png\" alt=\"f2fd8f06571fe09827ace5fcb31ec1d2\" width=\"576\" height=\"210\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dentalsuccesstoday.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/f2fd8f06571fe09827ace5fcb31ec1d2.png 576w, https:\/\/dentalsuccesstoday.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/f2fd8f06571fe09827ace5fcb31ec1d2-300x109.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 576px) 100vw, 576px\" \/><\/a>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Over the past few days, we hosted one of our advanced events we call \u201cThe Psychology of Case Acceptance.\u201d In this immersion training we focus on getting patients engaged in bigger picture diagnosis and actually wanting the dentistry, along with learning how to move through money and insurance issues.
