Just because you own or lease a property doesn’t mean you can do anything you’d like with it. Here’s what dental professionals need to know about zoning regulations and how these rules can affect their practices.

Many new dentists are surprised to find out they have made decisions which might significantly impact the location of their future practice before they have even officially begun their property search. The Search has Already Begun Any business owner can tell you about the huge amount of behind the scenes work that most of their customers would never notice unless, of course, these tasks weren&rsqu

Kent Miller, President of Dentagraphics, recently appeared on the Dentalpreneur Podcast hosted by Dr. Mark Costes. During the episode, Kent and Dr. Costes discuss a number of topics ranging from general demographic concepts to specific dental scenarios and how they might be addressed by a demographics report.

Back in 2015, we posted about the country's fastest growing metropolitan areas. Given how much has changed since then and in light of new data, we thought it'd be interesting to revisit the issue. Earlier this week, Realtor.com published its list of the top ten cities with the fastest growing suburban markets. While not exactly the same metric, quite a few buyers prefer the suburbs to thei
As most doctors will tell you, there’s a lot more to a dental practice than simply achieving the best medical results. Keeping patients happy is a multi-faceted task requiring versatile skill sets.

Finally, you’re ready to open. You found the perfect location, received financing, bought equipment and completed all the other steps that you might not have thought about at first. But what happens when you open the doors Do people just start coming in There are generally two ways that you have the chance to win the business of a patient.
