💬 “Why should I pay those dues?”

If you’ve ever asked yourself this question… you’re not alone. And you’re exactly who this new Dental Entrepreneur blog post is for. 👇

In “Stronger Together,” Dr. Sharon Parsons, past President of the Ohio Dental Association and longtime dental leader, breaks down one of the biggest misconceptions in dentistry:

✨ Organized dentistry isn’t the government.
✨ It’s your collective voice.
✨ And it’s one of the strongest tools we have as entrepreneurs.

From advocacy and PAC power to community, resources, leadership opportunities, and protecting your ability to practice the way you believe in—organized dentistry shapes far more of your daily reality than most realize.

And here’s the kicker Dr. Parsons emphasizes:
If fewer than half of dentists join, we lose our seat at the table.
If we lose our seat… we lose our influence.
If we lose our influence… who’s speaking for us?

Her message is clear, bold, and timely:
🦷 No one protects dentistry better than dentists themselves.
🦷 And we are stronger together.

🛠️ Your practice isn’t falling apart — your systems are. 😬

Say it louder for the back office!

In the Fall Edition of Dental Entrepreneur Magazine, Angela Davis-Sullivan drops some serious truth bombs about why so many dental teams are stuck in survival mode — and it’s not because they’re lazy or unmotivated. It’s because their systems are duct-taped together and barely holding up.

Think you're dealing with a “people problem”? Think again — it might just be a “system problem” in disguise.

If your team is constantly putting out fires, retraining new hires from scratch, or solving the same issue for the fifth week in a row… this one’s for you. ✨

Hope has a Name: Aquoral is Back. 💧

💡 Discover how the PXP protocol, XPERT Certified Provider Program, and a new standard of lipid-based therapy are driving collaboration between dentistry and medicine—and creating new opportunities for differentiation.

👉 If your patients are still being told to “just drink more water,” it’s time to rethink xerostomia care.
