Internal Implant Marketing Strategies

Most dental professionals want to perform more fixed-hybrid denture procedures. Many still struggle to attract and influence patients to accept high-dollar, full-arch implant procedures.

What You’ll Learn

  • A blueprint for patient consultations and proven tools for achieving high screw-retained full-arch case acceptance
  • Effective strategies for maximizing dental insurance and best practices for affordable treatment financing
