Bookkeeping For Dentists

OCTOBER 14, 2020

What are Dental Expense Benchmarks? Every practice has variations in their expenses such as paying rent or paying mortgage, if you have associates, and how many employees you have. But there is a clever way to group together specific expense accounts from your Profit & Loss report into six bite-size categories. Then you measure those six categories against national averages of dental practice expenses using the percentage of income.

Our lives in the dental office are becoming more and more dependent on batteries. I've complained more than once about how the profession is struggling with what I call "countertop real estate" as we accumulate more and more high tech hardware, but are forced to function on countertops that are the same size they were in the 70s.

Because the harmful bacteria in our mouths love to eat it, then excrete acid onto our teeth as a waste product. That leads to enamel erosion, tooth decay, and gum disease. This is why we encourage our patients to cut back on sugar intake…but it’s not always as simple as it sounds.

Molars are the most common teeth to have a dental implant. It makes sense because we use the last molars more than any of our teeth for primary chewing. Why Do Root Canals get Infected? Most often molars are replaced from a root canal that did not work. The root canal tooth can crack or there is just not enough tooth to hold the crown on so it ends up being extracted.
