Hygiene & Patient Retention Training Course
A step-by-step system for keeping patients active, loyal, and booked through a high-performing hygiene department
Course Description
Most practices don’t have a new-patient problem—they have a retention problem. If your hygiene chairs aren’t full and your “active patient” list looks better on paper than in real life, you’re leaving a lot of production and long-term relationships on the table.
The Hygiene & Patient Retention Training Course shows you how to turn hygiene into a true growth engine for your practice. You’ll learn how to accurately measure your real active patient base, keep patients coming back on time, and link hygiene directly to treatment plan completion and production.
This course gives Doctors, Owners, Office Managers, PR Directors, and New Patient Coordinators a unified playbook for building a patient base that grows year after year—instead of quietly shrinking.
Course Objectives
Calculate your true active patient count so you’re working with real numbers, not estimates
Track the key retention and hygiene metrics that actually predict growth
Use a proven S.A.F.E. strategy to keep patients from drifting off the schedule
Create patient loyalty that survives insurance changes, promotions, and competitors
Tie retention to treatment plan completions, not just cleanings
Assign clear staff responsibilities so everyone knows their role in retention
Maintain ongoing contact with your patient base between visits
Define the ideal attitude and role of the hygienist in driving retention and case acceptance
Maximize hygiene production while still delivering high-quality care
By the end, your hygiene department won’t just clean teeth—it will protect relationships, drive production, and anchor the long-term health of your practice.
