Speaker’s Bio:

Dr. Sadrameli is a graduate of the University of Florida dental school and has an MBA from University of Illinois Champagne-Urbana. She is a full-time practitioner with over two decades of clinical experience and a part-time consultant who is passionate about the business of dentistry.

Success in Dentistry is rarely accidental. In addition to excellent clinical skills, a successful dentist requires sophisticated Business and Leadership acumen. The purpose of this lecture is to review the key principles of success in dentistry from strategy and organizational systems to KPI’s and Profitability to better understand many concepts that contributes to a productive and successful practice. Understanding Finances and Numbers in Dentistry.  Dentistry is a small business just like any other small business, and as such it must be profitable to remain sustainable and open for patient care. Numbers tell a story, which shows the overall health of the practice and/or how much money was spent on a specific line-item.

Course Objectives:

• Understanding that Dentistry is a small business
• Understanding how to learn the health of the practice
• Understanding what KPI’s are
• Understanding how to interpret the KPI’s

Dental Practice Models – Transitioning into private practice
Today’s dental environment offers many pathways and practice models after graduation. The ultimate pathway chosen, depends on many factors dictated by a well-defined vision. During this lecture we will review what Vision is and complete a vision defining exercise for a better understanding of the doctor’s likes and dislikes and ultimately choose the desired practice model. We also will cover how to find a position post-graduation for each model. Given most periodontists become either an associates or practice owners, we will spend some time understanding those two practice models.
Our three objectives are:

• Discuss the various types of Practice Models
• Discuss Advantages and Disadvantages of each Model
• Decide which Model is best for you
