Why it matters for dental
Practices that systematically invest in staff training, retention, and culture are positioned to outpace competitors on revenue and patient retention within five years; owners and DSOs should treat workforce development as a strategic line-item rather than a discretionary expense.
Key points
- Dr. Sibera Brannon, owner of Affordable Dentures & Implants in Sun City, Ariz., predicts workforce investment will be the main differentiator for high-performing practices by 2028.
- Becker’s Dental Review frames the insight as forward-looking guidance for dental practice owners and DSO leadership.
- Emphasis is placed on long-term ROI from team development rather than short-term marketing or equipment spend.
- No specific dollar amounts, timelines, or measurable benchmarks are provided in the article.
