Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

008: Becoming a 27 Year Old Practice Owner | Dr. Aubree Capen
Q: What made you choose private practice ownership over other options when you returned to Michigan?
I evaluated offers from a DSO and a traditional private practice, but the private option offered the mentorship, cultural fit, and long-term growth potential I valued, plus the existing team and community connections won me over.
003: All Things Marketing | Dr. Len Tau
Q: How should a new graduate approach marketing their own practice?
Start with a strong Google Business profile, accumulate reviews, and invest in a capable website with local SEO and an AI-enabled lead flow tool to capture inquiries.
003: All Things Marketing | Dr. Len Tau
Q: What were the key shifts you saw in marketing for dental practices over the years?
Dr. Tau describes moving from traditional marketing to digital-focused strategies, with emphasis on local SEO, reviews, and reputation management as primary growth drivers.
009: Why More Dentists Should Start Clear Aligners | Dr. Avi Patel
Q: How soon after school should someone start learning about clear aligners?
The sooner the exposure, the better, especially since many graduates compete for jobs; having aligner skills can differentiate a candidate and help grow the practice.
013: How to Buy the Right Dental Practice | Dr. Chris Marshall
Q: What's the difference in buying a general practice versus a specialist practice in terms of strategy?
Specialist practices hinge more on referral relationships; transitions tend to be gradual to maintain referrals, while general practices often require a cleaner handover with the seller leaving on day one to avoid disruption in patient flow.
