The Secret To Filling Your Schedule Fast!
Most orthodontic and dental practices sit on a goldmine they never touch. Every day, people call asking about treatment. They request information. Then life happens and they disappear. But buried in those old leads are your future patients. The difference between practices that grow and those that plateau? Persistence.
The #1 Thing Orthodontists Need to Do to Grow Their Practice
Growth feels good. New signage. New markets. New potential. But here’s the catch: opening another location doesn’t guarantee success. It guarantees overhead, stretched resources, and thinner margins. One orthodontist learned this after years of splitting attention across multiple offices. His breakthrough? He closed a location everyone called a “goldmine.” His practice grew 50 percent in a year. True growth isn’t about multiplying offices. It’s about mastering what you already have before chasing the next opportunity.
3 Pillars That Transform Team Performance
Most orthodontic leaders think motivation lives in the paycheck. Add a bonus here, throw in a perk there, and watch performance soar. Except it doesn’t work that way. True motivation isn’t bought. It’s built. Dr. Ann Marie Gorczyca proves it every day with three psychological pillars: autonomy, mastery, and purpose. When you weave these into your culture, motivation becomes self-sustaining.
What Top Orthodontists Wish They Knew Before Spending Thousands on Ads
Right now, thousands of ads are flooding Meta. Your future patients are scrolling past most of them. The question is not how to post more. It’s how to convert strangers into patients before they ever pick up the phone.
The answer: turn every social profile into a trust funnel. Treat your channels as sales assets that earn trust with video, keep people inside your world long enough to like you, then point them to a clear next step.
A trust funnel converts a social channel into a sales asset. Instead of scattered posts, you deliberately design profiles and content to shepherd a cold viewer through a sequence: discover you, understand you, like you, and finally act.
This Is The #1 TC Shift That Separates Elite Practices
Most practices treat treatment coordinators like script readers chasing conversion numbers, but the best TCs do so much more. They’re the heartbeat of the office—the emotional anchor for families making life-changing decisions. By balancing passion, purpose, and processes, TCs transform anxious first visits into lasting trust, fuel practice growth, and shape a culture where patients feel cared for, not sold to.
Castilla Orthodontics
When we met Dr. Ana Castilla, she had been running her practice since 2013, growing it from averaging nine starts per month to now doing well over 1,000 starts per year. Since purchasing the practice, her model has evolved over the years, becoming more specialized and more in-tune with the demographic of her target patients.
SmileCrew Orthodontics
Dr. Connor Despot bought his practice in Buda, TX, in October of 2019. And while he was planning on growth from the beginning, he describes those early days as “pure chaos.” They were almost 100% dependent on doctor and patient referrals initially, which meant that revenue was unpredictable and outside their control. So they started spending big money on Google ads but couldn’t tell if it was bringing them any business. Dr. Despot was determined to succeed and serve his growing community. And he realized that if he wanted to grow, he’d need to invest in the systems and partners to help him plan, track, and scale that growth. So he hired HIP and implemented our Patient Acquisition and Retention Framework (PARF®). The rest, as they say, is history…
Knecht Orthodontics
Dr. Kristen Knecht opened the doors to her brand new practice just days before the COVID pandemic hit. From the very beginning she knew Knecht Orthodontics needed a strong brand identity and an enjoyable experience that would convert a potential lead from information gathering to happy patient. With the help of HIP’s Brand Identity Process and Patient Acquisition and Retention Framework™, Dr. Knecht brought in over half a million dollars worth of digital leads into her pipeline in just 10 months and during a pandemic.
Cassinelli, Shanker, & Baker Orthodontics
Cassinelli, Shanker & Baker Orthodontics is a beloved institution in the Cincinnati area, with a ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ rating on Google on over 650+ reviews. So they’ve done a lot of things right over the years. But when they came to us, they didn’t want to let complacency keep them from realizing their potential. They knew that more growth was possible and wanted a way to squeeze more profit out of their multi-location practice.
Dr. Jennifer Orthodontics
When we met Dr. Jennifer Eisenhuth, she had been running her ‘startup’ practice for 15 years. But, after years of growth and building a well-known practice in the Twin Cities region, her business had hit a wall. And then she met HIP: “I liken it to a rocketship…it was amazing! We started to see the results almost instantly.”
Fishbein Orthodontics
The City of Pensacola sits at the very end of Florida’s Panhandle, about 10 miles from the Alabama border. In 2020, the entire county checked in at a population of just 316,691 people—so it’s not the first place you’d think to look for the nation’s biggest orthodontic success story.
But Dr. Ben Fishbein didn’t let others’ expectations hold him back. When we met him in 2014, he had already grown a successful $2.6M practice. And while many doctors might have felt satisfied to grow slowly and temper their expectations at that point…not Dr. Ben.
