With several years of specialty training, you’re prepared for the most complex cases in dentistry. But you’re more than a prosthodontist. You’re a business, too.
This course is designed for experienced practitioners, prosthodontists considering a career in practice, and office staff members who are interested in state-of-the-art strategies for reaching patients, increasing revenue, and building a cohesive, high-performing team.
From investment strategies to employee relations and patient satisfaction, every practitioner faces important questions on a daily basis. Led by Program Chair Dr. Elain Torres-Melendez, this course will supplement your specialty training with practical wisdom and hard-earned experience from the world of private practice.
Learning Objectives
At the conclusion of this course, participants will be able to:
- Examine a prosthodontic practice in terms of factors that influence value and drive revenue.
- Assess the value and impact of various outreach strategies.
- Navigate risks and follow best practices for sound business operations.
Target Audience
Prosthodontists, residents, dental students, and office staff.
Enhancing quality of care to improve patient outcomes through education in practice management is a strategic priority of the ACP & ACPEF.
