Orthodontic Practice Consulting

Too many consultants see an orthodontist as just another dentist. Not us. Orthodontics is a very specialized field, with its own challenges. What’s different?

  • Payment plans: Unlike the fee-due-on-service nature of general dentistry
  • Insurance: Confronting the lifetime “inside maximum”
  • Terminology: Bands? Separators? Retainers? Lingual arches?

Ortho-practice consulting requires a team with ortho-office experience to match. We have it – and that’s the Athena Consulting difference. Whether you’re a new dental-school grad ready to open your own office or a seasoned orthodontist looking to tweak your practice, we have the tools to work with you.

Areas we will work to create or improve in your office include:

  • Patient flow to help relieve the 3 pm traffic jam
  • “Block scheduling” to maximize production and efficiency
  • Insurance and collections systems that keep payments up to date
  • Treatment acceptance in the exam/consult phase
  • Contract verbiage for contract acceptance and payment arrangements
  • Growth management instead of unstructured, stressful growth

Let us arm you and your staff with the systems and training needed to create a successful, smooth-running orthodontic practice.
