You’re Doing Crown Prep All Wrong (Well… Kinda)
Every dentist does crown prep.
But only the smart ones use it as a profit center that fuels loyalty, membership sign-ups, and a killer Monthly Recurring Revenue stream.
Most docs are stuck in this death spiral:
Insurance approval… ↓ reimbursement… patient flakes… crown doesn’t get seated.
Guess what? You can flip that narrative. Crown prep should be the launchpad for predictable income, increased patient loyalty, and booming case acceptance.
And no, you don’t need a magic wand — just a solid membership plan + BoomCloud™. ♂️
Story: The Practice That Stopped Bleeding Revenue from Crown Preps
Meet Dr. Jennings from Nashville. Dude was slammed with crown cases, yet his bottom line looked like a leaky bucket.
Here’s what he was up against:
-
Patients ghosting after diagnosis
-
Treatment plans getting denied
-
Anterior and posterior crowns sitting on the books… untouched
Then he had a lightbulb moment.
He built a simple membership plan inside BoomCloud™:
-
$30/mo
-
Cleanings included
-
20% off all crown prep + same-day seating
-
Automated billing
12 months later…
“Our membership patients now make up 32% of our practice and contribute 67% of our production.” – Dr. Jennings
Yeah. The guy figured it out.
Crown Prep Meets MRR Magic
Let’s do some quick math :
Say your crown fee is $1,200.
Without a membership? You’re stuck chasing insurance for 40-60% of that.
With BoomCloud™:
-
Offer patients a 20% discount (you still net $960)
-
Lock them into a recurring $30/month plan
-
Build trust, increase retention, and stack those procedures
Result?
Monthly Recurring Revenue (MRR)
Annual Recurring Revenue (ARR)
Higher treatment plan acceptance
More loyal patients that don’t price-shop you on Yelp
Membership Patients Spend 2X to 4X More
Here’s the mic-drop stat from BoomCloud™:
Patients enrolled in membership plans spend 2 to 4 times more than patients who aren’t.
Let that sink in.
Crown prep isn’t just about restoring teeth — it’s about maximizing the value of the patient in your chair.
Why membership patients spend more:
-
They visit more often
-
They trust your recommendations
-
They don’t delay treatment waiting on insurance
-
They’re less sensitive to cost — it’s already built into their budget
This is how smart practices are growing without chasing low-quality leads from Google Ads.

Cool Ways to Use Crown Prep to Boost Loyalty + Revenue
Ready to turn your crown preps into revenue monsters? Here’s how:
Bundle crown prep into higher-tier memberships
“Crown Club” plans = easy to sell, high-value perception
Use hygiene visits as prime pitch time

The Education Play: Empowering Your Team
Let’s face it — most case acceptance fails at the explanation level.
With crown prep, patients get scared when they hear:
-
“Lab fee”
-
“Out-of-pocket”
-
“Insurance won’t cover until 2026”
But when your front desk, assistants, and hygienists are armed with:
-
Easy scripts
-
Visual aids
-
Confidence in your membership pricing
…your practice becomes a finely tuned YES machine. ✅

Bonus: Why Crown Prep is THE Revenue Optimizer
Let’s get nerdy for a second.
Your revenue per patient is the single most important metric in your practice.
Old-school thinking:
“Let’s see 100 patients a week.”
New-school smart:
“Let’s make 3X more from the 40 best patients we’ve already got.”
Crown prep is high-margin. But it’s also high-risk — if patients don’t follow through, it becomes lost revenue.
That’s why membership + treatment bundling = revenue per patient optimized.
FAQs about Crown Prep and Memberships
Can a membership really help with crown case acceptance?
Yes. Patients with a membership feel less sticker shock and are more likely to say yes to treatment.
What’s a good discount to offer on crown prep in a membership?
Anywhere from 15%–25% off works well. Just make sure it’s built into your plan pricing.
Do I need special software to manage this?
Absolutely. That’s what BoomCloud™ is for — automated billing, renewal, and tracking in one easy platform.
Will my team be able to handle selling this?
Yes, especially if you use scripts, visuals, and BoomCloud’s in-office materials to make it easy.
Is this better than PPOs?
WAY better. You get paid upfront, no approval process, and no reduction in fees.
Can I use this strategy with same-day crown tech like CEREC?
100%. In fact, it makes it even easier to offer fast-track, premium options for members.
Final Word: Crown Prep is King — Membership is the Crown

It’s a gateway.
A golden opportunity.
A lead-in to loyalty, cash flow, and retention.
