  • Patient Experience

    I agree on the patient experience. It’s true, when you go to place like doctors office and you are not treated right you will not be wanting to return. You want to feel valued and cared for. Awesome job!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

283: Your Dental Practice Can Post 100 Claims in 10 Seconds
Q: Who is a good fit for Lassie and who isn't?
Lassie works best for practices that want to keep revenue cycle in-house with a capable staff; it's not ideal for shops with no personnel to monitor the dashboard or submit claims, as human oversight remains important for full automation.
283: Your Dental Practice Can Post 100 Claims in 10 Seconds
Q: How does Lassie change the front desk and billing team day-to-day?
Lassie automates posting of insurance payments, auto-downloads EOBs, and posts them into the patient ledger, reducing manual entry from hours to seconds and freeing up staff to handle higher-value tasks.
281: 30 Years of Dental Practice Leadership Lessons for Lasting Growth
Q: What would you do if you started over with a single practice and limited resources?
Focus on building a strong banking relationship, stay lean to accumulate capital, and plan strategic acquisitions and internal promotions to sustain growth while preserving clinical autonomy.
280: How Dental Practices Save 45 Hours a Month on Clinical Notes
Q: Where is Avora going and what is the industry trajectory for AI in dentistry?
The goal is to have all admin work handled by AI, freeing clinicians to focus on patient care, with continued emphasis on real-world adoption and customization to fit diverse practice workflows.
280: How Dental Practices Save 45 Hours a Month on Clinical Notes
Q: What has changed in AI over the last six months and what does that mean for dental vendors?
Agentic AI and broader API-enabled workflows allow AI to autonomously perform tasks across tools, accelerating product development, but vendors must ensure depth and workflow alignment rather than surface-level features.
