Dental teams want—and deserve—to be paid more. The challenge is that practices are also facing higher costs across the board, from supplies and labs to rent and debt. In this episode of The Dental CEO Podcast, Dr. Scott Leune explains how practices can afford to pay top salaries without sacrificing profitability. He shares how maintaining healthy ratios, maximizing hygiene production, improving case acceptance, filling schedule gaps, and implementing a simple weekly bonus plan can create a practice where team members are paid at the highest levels, owners stay profitable, and everyone wins.
