Patient retention and case acceptance affects your day to day operations and profitability of your practice and a loyal patient base adds value to your business and joy to your work. Your hygiene team plays a critical role in retaining patients with their communication, education and their ability to partner with the dentist as a diagnostic and therapeutic partner. Dayna and Rachel discuss the importance of reappointing patients, how hygiene can build patient confidence and track this incredibly important metric of patient retention.
