🔥 If your dental team feels overwhelmed, stressed, or burned out, it’s not a people problem—it’s a systems problem. In this episode, Dayna Johnson and Claire Dickinson dive into the real causes of burnout in dental practices and what leaders can do to fix it. They unpack how lack of systems, poor delegation, and unclear roles create unnecessary stress—and how implementing SOPs, stronger communication, and AI tools can dramatically improve efficiency and team well-being.
