We are continuing with much-required solutions for the betterment of Dentistry in India. Next in this is points 10 & 11

 10. Using “Marketing” to Get New Patients

There are legal ways of marketing our services, and we must invest in them. There is nothing wrong with it, and as long as we adhere to DCI Marketing norms, we must make full use of it to provide the best for our patients.

With the increasing number of dentists in the Urban sectors, one of the biggest struggles is to get a regular flow of new patients to your dental practice.

In this scenario, consistent and sensible marketing campaigns (both ONLINE & OFFLINE) are of high significance to make your dental practice create a name/presence among the general population of your locality.

11. Adapt to changing times: 

Dentistry has seen many changes in the past two decades for better. With the advent of superior materials and treatment modalities, we must also adapt to the changing tides, lest we become obsolete and fail to provide the best treatment to our patients.

For example, Amalgam restorations must be done away with since it belongs to another era when other filling materials were not available. Another example would be to invest in a Digital X-ray since it requires less radiation exposure and also reduces patient’s chairside time.

With time and experience, we should upgrade our practices to include modern, advanced and easier-to-use equipment like intraoral sensors, Laser, OPG, CADCAM, CBCT, patient management software and others.

The trick is to do away with anything that prevents us from providing the best for our patients.
