Hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday. I know, I’m still recovering from all the delicious food I had.
In addition to spending time with family and friends, I hope you were able to pause for just a few moments and celebrate everything you have to be grateful for.
Okay. Okay. Enough emotional holiday mumbo jumbo.
Today I’m excited to share my conversation with Dr. Trent McCord.
He is the founder of Mint Dental Care in Centerton, Arkansas.
What he has been able to accomplish with his practice in just under a year is nothing short of remarkable.

Time and time again, we talk about how important it is to execute if you want to run or grow a successful dental practice.
Hard, smart work matters.
But contrary to popular belief, you don’t have work 100 hour weeks to make things happen. In fact, in our experience, that will only lead you to burn out.
Focusing and executing on the right things, is far more important than how much you work.
Which is why I’m so excited to share with you my conversation with Dr. Cole Brenny.
Cole is the founder of Practingdentist.com one of the most popular dentist communities online. He is also a practicing dentist and owner of Ivory Dental Group in Minneapolis, Minnesota.
You’ll quickly notice in our conversation how much passion he has for the world of dentistry, and why that has allowed him to be so successful.
At the end of the episode, you’ll also find out where you can get access to Cole’s brand new book “Dental CEO” for free. He breaks down everything you need to know about branding, marketing, and creating the ultimate patient experience.
So be sure to listen all the way through this entire interview to get access to that.

Cash. Is. Oxygen.
In order to run a successful practice, not only do you have to provide exceptional service to your patients, you also have to master the art of collecting money.
Here at Dentist Metrics, we talk all about marketing, branding, and getting the most from your staff… But at the end of the day, collecting on your accounts receivable is what keeps your doors open.
Unfortunately, collecting from your patients, isn’t always easy.
Patients in financial distress. Countless insurance calls. Maybe your new front desk hire makes a mistake.
As way say… running a practice is hard.
But.. time and time again, we see that the most successful practice owners have their ducks in a row.
They know how to collect their money.
Which is why I’m so excited to share my conversation with today’s guest Andy Cleveland. Self proclaimed AR Ninja, Andrew is an accounts receivable consultant who has helped hundreds of practices master the art of collecting money.
In our conversation he shares a ton of tips and tactics on how to make sure you’re getting paid, while staying professional.

We all have different reasons for wanting to start a dental practice. Maybe you’ve always had a passion for the dental industry. Or maybe you love making a difference in your patients lives. Or perhaps, you just love the challenge of building a thriving dental business.
The truth is, whatever your reason, what you do matters.
But it’s sometimes easy to forget.
We get so caught up in the grind to build our practice that we let it run our lives.
And yet, I truly believe you can have both a successful practice and a lifestyle you love.
Which is why I’m so excited to share my conversation with today’s guest Ben Kacos.
Ben is a private practice dentist and a coach and consultant for the Dental Success Institute. He is also the founder of ExploreEducationCE, a unique continuing education program which mixes dental education with an outdoor sports twist.
