  • Thank you!

    I have been listening to all 3D Dentists podcasts for over a year now. I recently took my team to the Growth Summit in Nashville. I have found T-Bone, Sully and everyone at 3D Dentists to be down to earth, engaging, entertaining and most importantly, inspiring. As a dental practice owner, listening to passionate dentists speak about running dental practices gets me fired up for my day. I walk into my office inspired and ready to rock. Thank you guys! Keep up the good work!

  • Highly recommended

    I found this podcast several months ago and have found it extremely helpful. I’ve been in the same practice for 15 years and have found myself overrun with the chaos that comes along with running a large practice. This podcast has given me a lot of concrete action items that are helping me to continue to grow my practice while seeing less patients per day. Thank you for doing this podcast. I am very grateful to have found this information.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Why Dentists Give Up on Sleep Apnea Too Soon
Q: What do you guys think of that business model?
Discussing a lab model that provides a scanner and appliance support, Elliott and Tierney say it might remove some barriers, but scanner and appliance selection are not necessarily the main obstacles. Tierney stresses that patient objections and dentists' communication skills matter more.
Why Dentists Give Up on Sleep Apnea Too Soon
Q: Do you think sleep apnea has to be done with medical insurance as a practitioner? Is that the only way to do sleep apnea in the practice?
Tierney says it is not the only way, but practices pursuing higher volume should consider medical insurance. Third-party billing companies can handle much of the claims process. Agarwal and Elliott emphasize that dentists can start with fee-for-service treatment and patient conversations.
Your Dental Practice Is Busier... So Where’s the Money?
Q: What are a couple of things dentists should try before making the office more chaotic by working more?
Agarwal recommends organizing incoming and outgoing finances, identifying where money is going, and fixing the underlying leak rather than trying to outwork a broken system.
Your Dental Practice Is Busier... So Where’s the Money?
Q: What should dentists understand before adding an associate?
Agarwal says owners should know their own clinical pay and the practice's true business profit before deciding whether the business can support an associate.
Your Dental Practice Is Busy… So Why Aren’t You Making Money?
Q: I've heard about block scheduling, but my front desk pushes back and it falls apart. What am I missing?
The host advises starting small—begin with one easy day, then introduce a larger case day gradually, and ensure strong leadership and accountability to enforce blocks and minimize confusion for the team.
