If you are a dentist, hygienist, or dental office assistant or administrator, you know that dental practices often focus on the business side of dentistry and making money, with less of a focus on patients. Avrum R. Goldstein, DMD, FRCD(C), wrote A Dentist's Guide to Success! A Handbook That Will Show You the Keys to Reducing Stress, Improving Productivity, and Ultimately Finding Success and Happiness in Dental Practice to remind colleagues that if your priority is taking care of patients, the business side of the practice will take care of itself. By following the guidelines and suggestions now compiled in A Dentist's Guide to Success!, Dr. Goldstein was able to achieve stability, growth, and success, with significant long-term staff retention, in two specialty practices, one for thirty-two years in an urban area and one for ten years in a rural area. Even general readership can take something from A Dentist's Guide to Success! by learning what their dentist's office should be like.
