Episode Summary
Dental podcast: Welcome to DentalTalk. I'm Dr. Phil Klein. The modern dental professional is better prepared to diagnose and execute complex cases today than ever before, yet one major hurdle remains unchanged: the patient's financial ability to accept treatment. Today we'll be discussing the flaws with financing and how practices are modernizing their approach with a new technology that expands patient acceptance of extensive treatment, resulting in increased productivity and completion of cases that would otherwise not be treated.
