Description
Alan is joined again by Kate Reinert, a clinical efficiency consultant with our friends at Zirc Dental Products! We focused on the concept of "Lean Workflow" to achieve efficiency, free up time and increase profitability in dental practices! Zirc Dental Products is a company that basically helps offices understand how much better things can be in the dental office! Some topics we covered: How does the Color Method work to create a lean workflow Gathering data about existing clinical workflow and finding a "champion." Change is hard...how Zirc sets offices up for success! Digging into materials and instrument for each procedure It's not about tubs, trays or cassettes as much as the whole process. What is a lean process? Lean processes and dental hygiene Tub building Implementing the plan "Make ready" station and instrument processing Al's light bulb moment...the colors make it easy to bring instruments and materials together in the operatory so you'll have everything you need! Too lean vs. wasteful Office renovation vs. new design Some links from the show: Zirc's website The Color Method Get your free sample of the Crystal HD mirror
