Group Dentistry Now Show: The Voice of the DSO Industry · Transforming Associate Development and Retention Through Structured Education · 11 Jul 2026 podcast

Yeah.

One of the things we're starting to see from a metrics perspective is very quickly as these programs commence, we're able to effectively see all associates get up to about a $2,800 per day production level.

So that's what we see within the midst of the program.

At the conclusion of the program,

we're starting to see the vast majority of associates hit and exceed $3,500 per day in production.

So that's sort of been the goal that we've looked at.

And those numbers we know from our internal polling satisfies the profitability requirements and growth requirements of DSOs, including that same store growth that a lot of the clinical leaders are beholden to.

But simultaneously, Bill, when we hit those numbers as associates,

career satisfaction go up confidence levels go up and when those two things occur when the clinician feels confident and validated clinically and they also are productive and profitable our retention rates certainly go through the roof so that's the winning combination from that perspective so the numbers that we look at are very quickly 2800 per day as service mix increases as our capacity to work more efficiently increases

we hit 3,500 per day.

And then after that component, when you're at those numbers, it's almost a bit of a choose your own adventure at that point.

Now, an associate may want to focus on an aligner track.

One may be more inclined to proceed with implantology.

One may be cosmetic.

So now once you have that base foundational skillset, which is something we really heavily focus on in our program of

appropriately named, foundations, now you're able to go on to the more advanced education, something Spear has been synonymous with for decades.

But that foundational aspect is something we're immensely excited about and proud of, and it should accomplish those aforementioned goals.

We're building a new course right now called Core Foundations.

And what it is, is it's a two day workshop that will combine a lot of the educational components of Spear's core workshop.

So it's not as comprehensive as our treatment planning with confidence.
