Assisted Hygiene Implementation & Optimization
PHASE 1: HYGIENE CAPACITY ASSESSMENT
A focused, in-office evaluation of your current hygiene structure, including scheduling, operatory use, exam flow, assistant utilization, and compensation alignment.
I spend time in your office evaluating your current hygiene structure, patient flow, operatory use, and exam timing. I speak directly with your team — hygienists, assistants, administrative staff, and the dentist — to understand concerns, constraints, and opportunities.
I work directly inside your practice to evaluate, implement, and stabilize an assisted hygiene model that fits your team, your schedule, and your economics.
I’ve practiced assisted hygiene for over 20 years. I understand the clinical realities, the team dynamics, and the hesitation that often comes with change — especially in hygiene.
PHASE 2: IMPLEMENTATION
A controlled assisted hygiene model is implemented, including two-column workflow design, assistant integration, schedule restructuring, and compensation guidance aligned with production.
I guide your team through role clarity and training:
– How a hygiene assistant can support hygiene efficiently
– How hygienists manage two-column flow without burnout
– How doctors integrate exams without disrupting momentum
– How scheduling and compensation are adjusted to support sustainability
Remember: This work is collaborative, practical, and grounded in real-world clinical experience — not theory. The way I have practiced this method is proof of concept.
PHASE 3: OPTIMIZATION & STABILIZATION
Following implementation, I remain available for a stabilization period to support refinement, address workflow challenges, and ensure the system is functioning as intended.
This phase is focused on consistency and confidence — not ongoing dependency.
Once the model is stable, practices may transition to independent operation.
For practices that benefit from continued guidance, an optional ongoing support arrangement is available.
