Why This One Number Can Predict Next Year's Production—and What Dental Office Managers Can Do About It
02
Why This Number Matters
It is tempting to think of hygiene appointments as standalone events—a patient comes in, gets a cleaning, and goes home.
03
How Reappointment Predicts Future Production
The clearest way to understand why hygiene reappointment matters is to compare what happens in two different practices over a six-month window.
04
What a Healthy Reappointment System Looks Like
Strong practices do not leave reappointment to chance, individual initiative, or the mood of a particular checkout interaction.
05
Why Patients Leave Without Rebooking
Before a team can improve its reappointment rate, it needs to understand why patients leave without scheduling in the first place.
06
How the Front Desk Can Improve Reappointment
The front desk team is in one of the most influential positions in the entire reappointment process.
