What\u2019s more, since children don\u2019t mask their emotions as well as adults, their responses to treatment, whether positive or negative, provide an immediate guide for dentists to adjust their approach\u2014this means they can learn quickly. Emily notes that having fun is also important when it comes to pediatric dentistry. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Hiring Practices: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When hiring for pediatric dentistry, Emily says she looks for doctors that are open-minded and willing to try new things. Since many do not receive a lot of pediatric training in dental school, Emily needs doctors who are willing to step out of their comfort zone and be open to mentorship training and coaching. Emily also tries to find out about a potential hire\u2019s emotional maturity\u2014how they deal with frustration, difficult patients, or challenging coworkers\u2014since this may be tested when dealing with children and parents.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Patient Care and Business Growth:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Emily says that patient care is at the root of any dental business success. She says that once \u201cwe&#8217;re taking great care of our patients\u201d, then \u201cthe business side will follow\u201d. That said, Emily stresses that effective patient care can only be achieved once doctors receive the right operation support, the right equipment, and benefit from a productive workplace culture. Patient care all comes down to getting \u201cthose pieces to fit together\u201d. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Looking Toward the Future:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Emily shares her excitement about future clinical advancements, focusing on technology and its impact on diagnosis and patient experience in pediatric dentistry. Although pediatric dentistry doesn\u2019t always have access to the latest gadgets that general or specialty dentistry might do, she welcomes the use of AI in radiographs, and automation improvements in revenue cycle management.\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In this episode of The Dental Economist Show, host Mike Huffaker sits down with Emily Vanney, chief operating and clinical officer at United Dental Partners.
