Are You Overstaffed or Understaffed? Where is the Sweet Spot?

Are You Overstaffed or Understaffed? Where is the Sweet Spot? In this episode, we’re tackling a question many dentists struggle with: how do you know if your practice is overstaffed or understaffed? Finding that sweet spot is tougher than ever, especially after COVID, when practice expenses shot up and revenues haven’t quite kept pace. We’ll dive into how inflation and rising interest rates have tightened everyone’s budgets, and why hygiene wages, in particular, have skyrocketed. Too much staff can drain your profits, but too few can impact patient care—and in today’s world of instant Google Reviews, a slip in patient experience can spread fast. Join us as we break down the challenge of getting staffing levels just right, without hurting your bottom line or the experience you want to provide your patients.
