The Dentalpreneur Podcast w/ Dr. Mark Costes 2248: Eliminate Wasted Time Pt. 2
In today’s Part 2 episode, Dr. Aaron Nicholas continues his high-impact presentation, focusing on the often-overlooked skill of patient communication and how it directly drives case acceptance. He breaks down how to shift from technical jargon to relatable, fifth-grade-level language that patients can understand and act on. With real-life examples, he outlines how to present urgency without overpromising availability, how to guide patients toward comprehensive care through effective storytelling, and how to handle emergencies with calm, efficient systems.
Dr. Nicholas also dives into practical strategies like using visual aids, implementing simple systems for same-day treatment, and setting expectations with both your team and your patients. Plus, don’t miss his clever in-office tricks—like “Teflon tape” codewords—for navigating overly chatty patients while keeping the schedule on track.
