On today's episode, Addison Killeen takes the stage to unpack the real driver behind stronger case acceptance and smoother operations: trust. Using a practical 10-step framework, he explains how dental teams can close the loop from the very first phone call to financial discussions and follow-up scheduling by improving communication, handoffs, punctuality, treatment presentation, and team alignment. Addison shares how credibility, reliability, intimacy, and low self-interest all shape the patient experience, while also offering actionable ideas for reducing uncertainty, creating better doctor-patient connection, standardizing language across the team, and guiding patients confidently through treatment options. This episode is a smart, systems-based look at how operational excellence and human connection work together to help more patients say yes.
