  • Very knowledgeable and asks great questions!

    Dr Costes asked excellent questions and we covered exciting developments in AI, the surprising way Tim Ferriss monetized The Four-Hour Workweek, why every leader and expert needs a book to leverage the #3 search engine (Amazon), and more! We covered the 3 steps to effective communication (what, who, wow!), how to turn words into wealth, and how Kickstarter can add buzz and a lucrative additional income stream.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

2617: What 21,000 Implants Teach You About Patient Trust
Q: So what are some of the things over your story career, placing 21,000 implants? I know not all of those was in a private care setting, but how have you been able to get so many people to say yes? And is there a secret to it? Is there a framework that we can kind of borrow from you?
He emphasizes communication, respect, and a strong team. His role is to educate patients about what can and cannot be done, explain the process and risks, and give them time for additional consultations; his team helps make treatment affordable.
2617: What 21,000 Implants Teach You About Patient Trust
Q: Do you have a definitive preference as far as full mouth rehabilitation, whether it's on X or some sort of a screwed-in hybrid versus implant retained removable, or are you agnostic to the prosthetic design, or how do you feel about all of that?
Kosinski favors preserving natural teeth and bone when possible, while viewing removable overdentures and full-arch implant treatments as useful options when appropriate. He stresses that treatment should reflect each patient's needs, budget, and likely outcome rather than applying the same approach to everyone.
2618: What Dentists Overlook About Their Legal Responsibilities
Q: What are the proper ways to set up a termination to best protect yourself from a lawsuit?
Sampson recommends an employee handbook with progressive discipline provisions, a written performance improvement plan with specific expectations and review dates, and accurate documentation showing that decisions are performance-based.
2618: What Dentists Overlook About Their Legal Responsibilities
Q: Are you allowed to record patients internally for training purposes, or do you still need permission from the patient?
Sampson recommends getting consent from everyone recorded, checking state all-party consent and employee protections, and clearly notifying patients through intake forms or posted notices.
2619: Breaking Through the Fee-for-Service Growth Plateau
Q: So the customer acquisition cost, do you have a firm grasp on what that is? What your CAC is?
He estimates overall acquisition cost at about $250 per new patient and marketing-only acquisition cost at roughly $420 to $430. He compares that with an annual patient value just under $2,000.
