Doniger on conversation; Levin's 12 indicators for building value; AAP on oral healthcare

Dear DrBicuspid Member,

As Dr. Sheri Doniger relates in her latest Sheri's Solutions, the conversation that goes on between dentist, staff, and patient doesn't have to be related to sports or news. Sometimes, especially around the holidays, talking about recipes and cooking is the way to build your relationships.

In the latest excerpt from his book, What Dentists Can Learn From Top CEOs, Dr. Roger P. Levin examines the ways you can build value in your practice. He lists 12 indicators of your practice's value, many of which you may not be thinking about.

In a policy statement released on Monday, the American Academy of Pediatrics has come out strongly in favor of increased pediatrician knowledge of oral healthcare for children.

Root canal therapy can reduce multiple dimensions of pain, including intensity, duration, and its interference with daily activity, according to a new practice-based research network study published in the Journal of Endodontics. Read more here.

Have a safe and peaceful holiday weekend. We will have new content up on Friday and then resume our usual schedule next week. Everyone here thanks you for your membership and for helping us grow so strongly this past year.
