A Minute (Or Two) With Colin Receveur, Episode 66
- Dental hygiene gap is here. Is your bridge over the gap holding firm?
- Or if not, here's some ideas to make it safely to the other side.
- Following on my previous podcast, dentistry is now arguably one of the safest health professions out there.
- The results of an ongoing survey by the ADA show that dentists have an extremely low infection rate of .9%.
- Now, by contrast, an article in ProPublica in August stated that “Through the end of July, nearly 120,000, doctors, nurses and other medical personnel had contracted the virus in the US.”
- The CDC reported the low infection rate amongst dentists.
- This is something you can use to attract patients and certainly higher value patients that might require multiple visits.
- It's common sense that repeated exposures while unmasked indoors carry a higher risk of infection.
- Now you have the data to ease all of your patients’ fears.
- If you're keeping close tabs on your practices’ infection rates amongst team members, and you should be, be sure to let your patients know what that number is.
- And if you have, and it still looks like you're going to have empty chairs, why not fill those up with better patients who need more than a routine cleaning and exam?
- That's how you put more money in your bank faster.
