In this podcast episode, Gary discusses the missing ingredient in dental practices that can make all the difference.

Using an analogy of cooking, he explains that missing one ingredient can significantly impact the end result. He shares five examples of areas in dental practices where a small addition can elevate the practice to a world-class level.

For instance, he emphasizes the importance of taking digital photos for patient education and suggests incorporating a tablet rather than a monitor for an interactive experience. He believes we can add the missing ingredient easily and immediately, and knowledge without application is just entertainment. Tune into this insightful podcast to discover 5 areas where you may be missing the ingredients in your dental practice!
