“I need more new patients!” How to make dental office busy!
– Said every dentist… until they realized the real money isn’t in new patients — it’s in RECURRING revenue from loyal ones.
Welcome to the post-PPO era, where smart dentists don’t just fill teeth — they fill their schedule AND their bank account using a membership strategy powered by BoomCloud™.
Why Your Waiting Room Is Empty (And What to Do About It)
So your chairs are squeaky clean… because no one’s sitting in them.
You’re marketing hard, offering $99 cleanings, dancing on TikTok, sending email blasts… and still, your schedule looks like a ghost town.
Here’s the harsh truth: New patients are sexy, but they’re not the secret to growth.
The average cost to acquire a new dental patient is $200–$400, and half of them ghost after one cleaning. ☠️
But you know who doesn’t ghost?
Membership patients.
They come back. They pay monthly. They accept treatment. They bring in their grandma.
STORY: How One Practice Got Fully Booked — and Booked Solid
Meet Dr. Nick Hanley of SmileWorks Dental in Salt Lake City.
He was stuck in the “PPO hamster wheel.” You know the drill:
-
40% write-offs
-
Insurance games
-
No-show chaos
-
Stressed-out front desk
-
Chaotic days with zero growth
“We were busy… but broke. Our schedule was full, but the numbers didn’t add up.”
That’s when Dr. Hanley decided to fire bad PPOs and launch a membership plan with BoomCloud™. He called it the SmileClub.
12 Months Later, His Numbers Looked Like This:
-
642 Active Members
-
$26,360 Monthly Recurring Revenue (MRR)
-
85% retention rate
-
$316,320 in Annual Recurring Revenue (ARR)
-
Treatment acceptance up 61%
-
His office had a 3-week waitlist
And here’s the kicker:
He needed fewer patients to make more money.
The Best Way to Grow a Practice? Boost Revenue per Patient
If you really want to know how to make a dental office busy — the right kind of busy — stop chasing volume and start chasing value per visit.
Here’s a quick stat for your cerebellum:
The average revenue per patient on a BoomCloud™ membership plan is $1,200–$2,200 per year.
The average revenue per insurance patient? $400–$700.
That’s 2X to 4X more revenue, from patients who are easier to schedule, trust your recommendations, and show up on time.
