DNP - Expansion

Treat more complex cases through procedural expansion.

Patient care is your priority. But to enhance your patients’ oral health—and to create more healthy smiles—you also need a healthy practice. Expanding the types of procedures you offer through specialty dentistry can help you achieve both goals.

Drawing on our 130+ years of experience in the dental industry—including technology solutions for endodontics, implants, clear aligners, and sleep apnea—we can help you expand your practice to meet more patient needs, and accelerate your practice rebound in the process. To get started, simply meet virtually with a Dentsply Sirona representative in a Healthy Practice Consultation.

You’ll gain:

Gain valuable insights into infection prevention protocols, products, and recommendations
Review a full complement of single-patient-use products that can help you stay compliant
Learn how technology for single-visit dentistry can help delight your customers
And so much more.

All designed to help you build a healthy practice, and more healthy smiles.

Expand with endodontics

More than 25 million root canals are performed every year, according to the American Academy of Endodontics. And 63% of patients would prefer getting root canal treatment from their dentist as opposed to a specialist¹. Learn about a full-treatment endodontic system that uses a pre-sterilized, single-file technique for shaping canals to enhance safety, simplicity, and success—and overcome patients’ concerns over infection, their #1 reason for declining procedures. Also, learn how to further enhance endodontic success with the aid of 3D imaging—a significant tool when you consider that 62% of the time, endo treatment plans are altered with the aid of 3D.³ Adding one root canal per week adds $52,000 to your annual revenue.⁴

Expand with implants

In the U.S. 220 million people are missing at least one tooth—and the numbers are expected to grow.⁵ Among general practices doing dental implants, 31% reported revenue as high as $299K and 20% reported more than $500K.⁶ Explore options for adding a streamlined implant workflow to your practice, including a patient-specific solution that minimizes time and costs for inventory management and equipment maintenance—and an all-in-one-box approach that offers a convenient start-to-finish implant solution for single-tooth replacement. Plus, learn about imaging technologies that further enhance efficiencies and support positive outcomes.

Expand with clear aligners

The clear aligners market is expected to increase by 21% for the next 5 years.⁷Just one clear aligner case per month equals $60,000 per year of additional revenue.⁸ Help more patients by fulfilling this growing demand and grow your practice in the process. Learn about the fully integrated SureSmile® digital workflow that supports higher case acceptance, a more accurate treatment plan, and greater workflow efficiency.

Expand with sleep apnea treatments

Get the facts on sleep therapy as they relate to your practice—like that 7 million new cases of Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) are projected each year and that the average fee for sleep therapy is $1,500 to $3,000.¹⁰ Hear about a simple sleep solution that uses a fully digital workflow, as well as one that allows you to easily partner with some of the best sleep appliance manufacturers.
