Your Dental Practice Income Doesn’t Have to Be Tied to Chair Time

Let’s get this out of the way—
You DON’T need more patients.
You DON’T need to work more hours.
You definitely DON’T need more PPOs draining your margins.

What you need is a smarter strategy to grow your dental practice income by focusing on the numbers that actually matter:

✅ Monthly Recurring Revenue (MRR)
✅ Annual Recurring Revenue (ARR)
✅ Revenue per Patient

And guess what? The easiest way to do that isn’t by hiring another associate…
It’s by launching a membership plan that creates recurring income and loyal patients—powered by BoomCloud™.


 How One Practice Doubled Their Dental Practice Income Without Adding Chairs

Dr. Elena Ruiz had a full schedule, a solid team, and plenty of patients.
But after paying her staff, covering lab fees, and dealing with $40K/month in PPO write-offs, her take-home pay was .

So she made a shift: ✅ Cancelled two low-paying PPO contracts
✅ Launched a BoomCloud™-powered membership plan
✅ Focused on increasing revenue per patient instead of volume

12 months later:
MRR: $36,000/month
ARR: $432,000/year
Revenue per member patient: 3.9X higher than PPO patients
Stress level: Minimal
Net profit:


Want to Grow Your Dental Practice Income? Start With These Core Levers


✅ 1. Monthly Recurring Revenue (MRR)

MRR = Members × Monthly Fee
Example: 800 members × $40 = $32,000/month

Why It Matters:
✔️ Predictable income
✔️ Better forecasting
✔️ Easier growth planning

BoomCloud™ automates signups, billing, and tracking so you can build MRR in your sleep. BoomCloudApps.com


✅ 2. Annual Recurring Revenue (ARR)

ARR = MRR × 12
Example: $32,000 × 12 = $384,000

Why ARR Matters:
✔️ Long-term value of your patient base
✔️ Increases practice valuation
✔️ Gives you freedom from daily production-based pressure

BoomCloud™ makes your ARR trackable from Day 1.


✅ 3. Revenue Per Patient

Formula: Total Revenue ÷ Active Patients
BoomCloud™ practices report:
✅ $500–$900 from PPO patients
✅ $1,500–$2,500+ from membership patients

More money, fewer patients = less burnout and more impact.


Why Membership Plans Boost Dental Practice Income (and Happiness)

Patients on membership plans:

  • Accept more treatment

  • Visit more regularly

  • Spend more on cosmetic and elective care

  • Are 3–5X more loyal than PPO patients

BoomCloud™ lets you:

  • Offer multiple tiers (basic, cosmetic, perio)

  • Enroll patients instantly

  • Automate payments

  • See ROI from Day 1


From Insurance Slavery to Freedom with Recurring Revenue

Dr. Ruiz realized she wasn’t running a dental practice—she was running a dental insurance processing business.
Her income was unpredictable.
Her team was overwhelmed.
Her margins were trash.

But after launching her membership program with BoomCloud™, her numbers told a different story: ✔️ More loyal patients
✔️ Higher profit per patient
✔️ Consistent, growing income
✔️ Less dependence on production

Now she chooses how she practices.
And her bank account finally matches her skillset.
