Why Efficiency Is No Longer Optional in Dentistry
Dentists today are working more hours than ever—yet keeping less. Rising overhead, staffing instability, and outdated systems are quietly compressing margins and limiting long-term value.
For years, the default response was simple: add people, add hours, and push harder. That model no longer works. Today’s challenges aren’t just staffing shortages—they’re systems problems. Technology decisions that once felt secondary are now central to efficiency, security, patient experience, and enterprise value.
In this webinar, Dr. Scott Leune is joined by Jana Macon, President of Curve Dental, for a strategic discussion on why efficiency has become a requirement—not a preference—for modern dental practices. The conversation focuses on how cloud-native platforms and platform-level AI reduce operational friction, improve visibility, and position practices for scale, valuation, and eventual exit.
This is not a product demo or AI hype session. It’s a leadership-level discussion about modernization, risk, and why practices that fail to adapt will find themselves increasingly constrained.
