How you maximize your dental practice daily huddle creates momentum and drives productivity. Truth is, your morning huddle is a stale routine or it’s a catalyst for everything you do throughout the day. Your care standard, team dynamics and profitability are influenced by the tone of your morning huddle. So much value from a small (but essential) daily time investment Research has shown that practices who value a daily, morning huddle time “outproduce practices that don’t by 30 percent” on average.1 Here’s where those producing practices are focusing their huddle agenda: • Scheduling gaps and opportunities. • Scheduled patients with unscheduled treatment on record. • A plan B for cancellations and no-shows. • Team building and collaboration. An effective morning huddle requires being intentional. Covering metrics and reviewing the schedule are good, but there’s more to it. The value exists in knowing what numbers to measure. Then translating those measurables into practical actions that help your patients and improve your team’s productivity. How to maximize your dental practice daily huddles to improve patient care and team performance Each day has something positive to carry forward to the next. It’s also valuable to analyze, learn from and leverage the negative. • Follow a proven three-to-one ratio for daily huddle reflection (three “wins” and one “loss” to improve). • Collaborate briefly and proactively around the “one” area of improvement. • Monitor your improvement goal(s) and circle-back when necessary. Next, review your schedule for production and revenue opportunities: • Look for unscheduled treatment on today’s scheduled patient records. • Look for unused or remaining insurance benefits within today’s scheduled patients. • Look for opportunities beyond 5 (Photo/Provided by Henry Schein One) what’s already on the day’s schedule. Also, an evaluative eye on your next-day’s schedule helps increase awareness and anticipation across your team: • Who’s scheduled? • What treatment is scheduled? • Where are there openings and opportunities? • When is the patient’s next recare, follow-up, etc.? Finally, think of your morning huddle as a daily “reset button.” Create and use visual motivation (e.g., video, whiteboard, print media, etc) around your daily schedule goals, a select KPI (Key Performance Indicator) or a patient story. • Instill ownership in your team members through welcoming their individual input and ideas. • High-five effort, successes energy, and overall engagement with practice goals. Intentional planning will enable you to maximize your dental practice morning huddles. The time and potential outcomes are too valuable to be left to chance.

Now the company is presenting it here at the CDA Presents The Art and Science of Dentistry. Electric handpieces have been available to dentists for a number of years, but lingering concerns about size, weight and general contentment with the status quo have kept a number of doctors from seeing the full clinical benefits electrics can deliver. Nova is designed to take those concerns head-on — starting with a smaller head. The Nova’s small head and slim handle enhance the dentist’s field of vision and guarantee easier access in the back of the mouth. It is the smallest head to also feature the AccuSpray Quattro Mix system, focusing four asymmetrical air/water sprays on the end of the bur with laser precision to ensure optimal irrigation in the working area. Connected to one of Bien-Air’s LED motors, a multi-strand optical glass conductor simulates daylight conditions with reduced reflection for exceptional visibility in the working area. “I was skeptical on how powerful such a small head could be, and to my surprise, the small head doesn’t mean less power,” said Dr. Gabriela Duraes of Blooming Smiles Dental Studio in Chicago. “Nova cuts tooth structure fast and smooth, without requiring any extra pressure or concerns with overheating.” The unwillingness to compromise — holding size and power as equally important to the dentist — was a trademark of the Nova design and engineering processes, the company asserts. “Without compromising performance, our goal was to push the limits, to deliver the size and weight reduction demanded by the long hours kept by dental professionals,” said Marco Gallina, VP of innovation and 5 The new Nova contra-angle electric handpiece. (Photos/Provided by Bien-Air) marketing for Bien-Air. “This is why we pushed ourselves to provide the smallest front bearing with four-port water spray, that will not overheat the working surface of the patient.” “Without agility, strength and power become ineffective. At BienAir, we approach our design and engineering problems from a holistic perspective to balance each point of strength — we don’t want to reduce the weight if it means we increase noise. Or, we don’t want to reduce the head size if it means you cannot use a standard length bur,” said Edgar Schönbächler, CEO of Bien-Air. “The Nova is our greatest achievement in making a handpiece that is smaller, quieter, and will last longer than any previous version.” Here in Anaheim To learn more about the Nova, stop by the Bien-Air booth, No. 1310.
