Second BiteTheory
Probably the most overhyped/oversold reason to join a group dental practice is the "second bite" or “equity story”.   Having done this for too long, I’ve been able to witness the evolution of deal structures and terms.  Trendy new acronyms to describe the same thing - the tortured mental...  Read More

If there is one dental procedure that makes people visibly tense just hearing its name, it is the root canal. I have watched the color drain from a patient's face when I suggested they needed one.
