Profitability Pitfalls of Vet Dentistry
Your dentistry center takes on some of the most complex but common procedures like teeth cleaning and extractions.
These services provide essential care to pets and aren’t available at every practice or center.
But to continue providing this care, you need to ensure your dentistry center is profitable.
Top profitability-cutters in dentistry centers I’ve seen include:
Not accurately charging for x-ray time and expertise expense, or charging for it at all.
Not considering the costs of maintaining, sharpening, and cleaning dental equipment.
My recommendation:
Charge for the use of space.
Even if you don’t have a huge dental suite, charge for suite space.
That charge can be reinvested into a larger, better-equipped space in the future.
Dentistry is just one key performance indicator
