What monies do I need to run my business on my associate? Absolutely. Efficiently, without understanding the numbers that go into our practice. We're not going to survive. 00:00:21:12 - 00:00:45:08 Speaker 1 We're going to wonder, why aren't we driving that type of car? Why aren't we having that renovated office? What I really like about being a super generalist is, at some point in your career, when you're doing these procedures, nothing fazes. You can market all you want, but if we're doing fillings instead of crowns that are needed, referring out root canals or extracting those teeth because we're not comfortable with those who canals, and we want to get it under our own bill, that's going to hold the growth of the practice. 00:00:45:08 - 00:01:02:12 Speaker 1 But when you have a dentist that wants to embrace this country, wants to do it all, look left, look right, look at the quadrants. This is what's going to make dentists have a tremendous career. It's not about money. Money comes. 00:01:02:13 - 00:01:24:15 Speaker 1 Hello, everybody. Welcome back to dentistry. Beyond the numbers. If you can tell, I am very excited to be here. Took a few weeks off my son and my daughter in law and had a daughter, which makes it my granddaughter, my wife and I. Granddaughter. First grandchild. We are over the moon just to share some good news. Personal. I have three sons that my wife and I raised and, never had. 00:01:24:15 - 00:01:48:12 Speaker 1 A girl in our life was so excited and took a little time off, spend some time, got myself situated. But we're back to dentistry beyond the numbers, and we're going to engage in a ten week program. The ten week program is to really dive in to what we talked about. Our first our first venture, the dental hamsa. Really this roadmap of having just a quality, exceptional career. 00:01:48:13 - 00:02:10:20 Speaker 1 This is something that I've thought about for many, many, many years. When I first came out, I'll remind everyone I had a large practice in New York City, still part of it, and we had specialists. But I've seen through the years some of my associates, a couple of them mainly have really embarked on the super general dentist. What we're going to term the super generalist. 00:02:10:22 - 00:02:43:23 Speaker 1 To me, the super generalist is the future of dentistry. And it is my observation through many years of having associates and what I've seen is and studied is that a dentist that allows themselves to be able to learn and seek the knowledge of really a well-rounded dentist. And if you look at the five digits, the five fingers Invisalign root canal, kind of bridge, cosmetics, surgical extractions, bone graft, and of course, implant placement the fastest growing procedure in in our field. 00:02:44:01 - 00:03:07:02 Speaker 1 When you embark on those things, you are what I call really a super planner or a comprehend treatment planner. And what I mean by that is when we're a super generalist, I want patients to know that it doesn't matter to us whether we do a root canal or extraction and bone graft, or an implant or a crown or anomaly. 00:03:07:04 - 00:03:33:17 Speaker 1 We do it all. So the only goal for us is really to do what's best for the patient. And it's so important when when we look at that situation. Because once you have adapted and I've seen young and old, I mean, I have we have partners, I have associates that have embraced this concept and really understanding what it means to be a super generalist. 00:...
