Hygiene Assessment & Strategic Review

Understand What's Limiting Your Hygiene Department Before Making Major Changes

Not every practice needs assisted hygiene - and not every practice's biggest opportunity is to add capacity.

Before recommending any operational changes, we'll evaluate your current systems, workflow, scheduling, and team structure to identify where opportunities exist.


WHO THIS IS FOR

✓ Hygiene schedules booked weeks or months out

✓ Practices finding difficulty finding hygienists

✓ Production not keeping pace with demand

✓ Team burnout or turnover

✓ Uncertainty whether assisted hygiene is the right solution

✓ Practices relying heavily on temp coverage or trying to find another hygienist

✓ Doctors and hygienists who are open to rethinking how hygiene care is delivered

WHAT WE’LL EVALUATE


SCHEDULE & CAPACITY

  • Appointment structure

  • Recare availability

  • New patient flow

  • Daily capacity constraints

CLINICAL WORKFLOW

  • Hygiene appointment flow

  • Doctor exam timing

  • Assistant utilization where applicable

  • Room turnover

TEAM UTILIZATION

  • Hygiene appointment flow

  • Doctor exam timing

  • Assistant utilization where applicable

  • Room turnover

PRODUCTION & OPPORTUNITY

  • Hygiene production trends

  • Capacity opportunities

  • Revenue impact

  • Growth limitations


WHAT YOU’LL RECEIVE:

WRITTEN FINDINGS REPORT

A clear summary of:

  • Key bottlenecks

  • Areas of inefficiency

  • Capacity opportunities

  • Workflow recommendations

  • Priority action items

STRATEGIC RECOMMENDATIONS

Including whether:

  • Assisted hygiene may be appropriate

  • Current scheduling should be modified

  • Doctor exam flow should be improved

  • Team roles should be adjusted

POSSIBLE OUTCOMES:

Maintain Current Model:
No major changes recommended

Optimize Single-Column Hygiene: Examples may include scheduling changes, exam flow improvements, recare management, perio protocols

Assisted Hygiene May Be Recommended

If the practice has the staffing, layout, and culture necessary to support it.

Assisted Hygiene May NOT Be Recommended

In some cases, scheduling changes, workflow improvements, or better utilization of existing team members may provide a greater return.
