The Secret to a Stress-Free Summer for Orthodontic Practices

Written by Anthony V. Bonavoglia, DDS, MS | Jun 20, 2023 8:00:00 AM

The final school bell has rung, marking the start of a busy season for orthodontic practices. With a surge in patient consultations, a packed appointment schedule, and an increased workload of administrative tasks, you and your staff may find managing your practice quite overwhelming.

To help you sail smoothly through these busy months, we've singled out a home-run strategy to maximize your time and keep your practice organized:

Focus on in-office patient care!

At the heart of any successful orthodontic practice lies exceptional patient care. So prioritizing your in-office visits is key to earning patient referrals and glowing reviews, thereby ensuring your practice's growth.

But you might ask, "What about new patient inquiries that pop up during this busy time?"

Well, that's where SmileSuite steps in! 

SmileSuite's Orthodontics Only New Patient Concierge System handles all your new patient management during the busy summer months. From following up with every new patient lead to signing up for treatment - and every process in between - we save practices time and resources. 

Our system cuts down on administrative time, freeing up precious hours for you and your staff to concentrate on patient care during this busy time of year. Time spent on confirming new patient appointments and insurance verification quickly adds up. On average, we save practices 15-20 minutes per new patient.

Best of all, SmileSuite reduces the stress orthodontists have over staffing issues. Our highly trained U.S.-based team of remote concierges manages all your new patient inquiries and follow-ups, eliminating the hassles associated with hiring, training, and managing additional staff. We also follow-up with new patient leads when your practice is closed - 7 days a week - days, nights, and weekends so - that you never miss a new patient opportunity, even during the busiest time of the year.  

Yes, you heard that right. You can fully enjoy your summer vacation knowing that all new patient inquiries are being followed up on.

And because SmileSuite is powered by 100% humans and awesome technology, we guarantee a consistent, professional introduction to your patients (tailored to your practice), enhancing their satisfaction and glowing up your practice's reputation.

So grab your sunnies and let us take care of all your new patients from inquiry to contract while you focus on crafting beautiful smiles!
