There’s often animosity in the practice between the dental assistant and the dental hygienist. What can we do about this hierarchy? What’s the dentist’s role in setting the tone for the practice?
Ponder these points, and we’ll see you on the podcast:
- See yourselves as a cohesive team.
- Work together to get through the schedule.
- Look at how you can help the patient (your main goal).
Join us in this episode of Gloves Off as Dr. David Rice and Julie Varney, CDA, RDA, of @dentalassistantsrock on Instagram share ways to improve practice dynamics and work together to achieve the one purpose of all dental professionals—to deliver the best care possible to the patient and the community.
