Hey there, doc — let’s get brutally honest for a sec:
Running a dental practice for dummies.Running a dental practice feels like juggling chainsaws while riding a unicycle… on a tightrope… over shark-infested waters. ♂️
If you secretly Google “running a dental practice for dummies” between crown preps — you are not alone.
But here’s the kicker: most practice headaches boil down to just ONE thing — unpredictable cash flow. You can have the best crown margins in Texas, but if you’re begging PPOs to pay your bills, you’re toast.
Today I’m handing you the Running a Dental Practice for Dummies cheat sheet — complete with a proven trick to lock in loyal patients and build Monthly Recurring Revenue (MRR) so steady you’ll sleep like a baby.
Story
Meet Dr. Tina. Young doc, fresh out of dental school with big dreams and a shiny new office in suburbia.
She did everything “by the book”:
✅ Joined all the PPOs
✅ Ran a new patient special
✅ Hired nice people
…and still ended up crying into her Starbucks when the rent check was due. ☕
The problem? Every month felt like a gamble. Some weeks, hygiene was booked solid; others, her op chairs looked lonelier than a dentist at a sugar convention.
One night, Tina found BoomCloud™. She learned that dentists who build their own in-house membership plan don’t depend on insurance companies or desperate coupons. They create predictable income on autopilot.
She launched her plan:
-
$30/month = all preventive care + 20% off everything else
-
BoomCloud™ handled payments, renewals, and compliance
-
She and her front desk pitched it to every patient who hated insurance (aka everyone).
Fast forward a year:
✅ MRR: $22,500/month
✅ ARR: $270,000/year
✅ Membership patients spent 3X more on big cases than PPO zombies
✅ Dr. Tina fired two low-paying PPOs — without losing sleep.

“But Jordon, my patients will never pay monthly — they have insurance!”
Uh-huh. Cool story.
Your patients pay Netflix, Amazon Prime, BarkBox, and probably a monthly car wash club for their Tesla. Why? Because people love predictable value.
A membership plan is Netflix for teeth:
✅ No surprise bills
✅ VIP perks
✅ Predictable costs
Patients LOVE IT. And you? You get beautiful, glorious recurring revenue.
Why “Running a Dental Practice for Dummies” Is Actually Simple
It boils down to three golden rules:
1. Control your revenue.
2. Control your overhead.
3. Control your patient loyalty.
A membership plan does ALL THREE.
Let’s break it down:
What’s MRR & ARR? Why Should You Care?
MRR (Monthly Recurring Revenue) = the money you bank automatically every month from your members.
ARR (Annual Recurring Revenue) = MRR x 12. It’s what makes your banker swoon and your CPA fist-bump you.
Example:
500 members x $30/month = $15,000 MRR
$15,000 MRR x 12 = $180,000 ARR
Before you pick up a single handpiece!
How a Membership Plan Beats PPOs at Their Own Game
Insurance tells you:
❌ What to charge
❌ How long to wait to get paid
❌ How much you write off
A membership plan flips the power:
✅ YOU set the price
✅ YOU get paid instantly
✅ YOU keep patients loyal
Patients win too:
✅ No hidden fees
✅ No surprise bills
✅ No denials
