Stop losing patients to confusion 🧠

We have the best-trained clinicians, the most talented teams, and more advanced technology than ever before, so why is treatment acceptance still a struggle for so many?

The answer comes down to a critical distinction every practice owner needs to understand: Does your practice optimize clarity for your patients?

When care isn't clear, confidence disappears and when confidence disappears, treatment never happens.

We’ve spent years building systems to navigate administrative hurdles. It’s time we start building systems that reconnect patients with their health, their understanding, and ultimately, their care.

May has been a whirlwind of travel, connection, and deep dives into the future of dentistry.

I kicked things off in Chicago for the VistaApex KOL event focusing on innovation currently shaping dental materials and workflows. Then headed to Arizona to speak on dental-medical integration at the American Association of Dental Consultants (AADC) Spring 2026 Workshop, and wrapped up in Philadelphia to talk tech at the MPL Association’s Dental Liability Forum.

Whether it’s perfecting a clinical bond or navigating dental liabilities, the goal remains the same: innovation with purpose. The best way to predict the future of dentistry is to start creating it today, and each of these organizations did a great job of creating the space necessary for the critical dialogues to occur that will shape our future.

You may have heard me say this once or twice… or a few hundred times.

“Take Back Care.”

At this point, some of you are probably thinking: “Yes Bryan, we get it.”

But honestly, it’s worth repeating because dentistry works best when patients are at the center of the system and not buried under process, production goals, or technology for technology’s sake.

Technology should strengthen human connection, not replace it. And that's what we're building at ™ powered by ®.

When patients feel informed, connected, and cared for, everything changes. Outcomes improve. Trust improves. Practices grow.

Tomorrow I am participating in the Level Seven International (HL7) Government Birds of a Feather meeting hosted by the Electronic Health Record Modernization Office (FEHRM).

I’ll be presenting on the need to move beyond data exchange to systems that ensure patient care progresses across organizations and borders:

“From Data Exchange to Care Completion: A Standards-Based Model for Cross-Border Referral Coordination.”

Looking forward to collaborating with interoperability leaders advancing practical, standards-based approaches to better patient outcomes.

• Creating a more predictable path from treatment recommendation to collection

If your organization is focused on increasing case acceptance, operational efficiency, and revenue performance, this session is for you.

Something we actually agree on 🤯 . Too many decisions about technology, systems, and workflows are being made by people who have never actually worked inside a high-functioning dental practice.

In this month's episode of "The Bryan Laskin Podcast", I sit down with Dave Pryor to discuss where dentistry is headed, why clinicians need to take back care, and the biggest mistakes practices are making with AI today.

If you care about the future of dentistry, patient trust, and building practices that truly thrive, you'll want to listen.

One year ago, we launched the Connected Dentistry® Newsletter with a simple idea: better connection leads to better care.

This month, we break down the trust gap in dentistry and why patient outcomes depend less on diagnosis and more on how consistently care is delivered.

If you’re serious about growth, this is required reading.

🛫 I'm off to the Professional Liability Association Annual Conference this week where I've been asked to present about Dentistry 3.0™ to the Dental Liability Forum.

I'll be discussing evolving technology in dentistry and what is being done to transform perceived risks into opportunities to elevate patient care and increase profitability.
..And how to leverage AI to close the Diagnosis to Dollars™ gap.😁

Join me live on May 19th at 12:00 PM CDT where I’ll break down one of the most overlooked growth opportunities in dentistry.

Many practices focus heavily on getting more patients in the door while losing momentum after treatment is diagnosed.

I call this the Diagnosis to Dollars™ gap, and I’ll share how leading dental organizations are creating a more seamless path to stop the revenue leaks.

I recently joined "The Patient Experience Blueprint Podcast" with Intiveo to talk about what’s actually shaping the future of dentistry.

One key takeaway: patients don’t evaluate care the way clinicians do.

They value convenience, clarity, and confidence. When we systemize that, we don’t just improve the experience we improve outcomes and performance.

We also discussed the growing role of interoperability, how Standards will reshape the industry, and where technology (including AI) can truly move the needle.
