Can You Boost Efficiency Without Sacrificing Care?

Adopting Invisalign® in 1999 and growing to be two of the top providers in the world, Dr. Damon DeArment and Dr. Dan Lill are no strangers to new technologies. But it was when they coupled their passion for early-adoption with dynamic scheduling, two-phase treatment, and team-member buy-in that their clinical efficiency truly began to soar.

 
The orthodontists behind Shenandoah Valley Orthodontics are proving that efficiency doesn’t equal cutting corners, and when the systems are built to serve the doctor and team, the patient is the ultimate beneficiary.

 

On this episode of the Smile Doctors Off Mute podcast, Dr. DeArment and Dr. Lill join Dr. Scott Law to share their blueprint for patient-centric systems that make doctors' lives easier. Listen in as they discuss:  
 
🔑 The key to efficiency (spoiler: it’s education)
