Paperback. Your production is up. Your overhead went up with it. Nobody decided that. Overhead almost never rises in a way anyone notices. A supplier adjusts prices two percent. An extra order goes out because nobody checked the shelf. A service contract renews on terms negotiated four years ago. None of it is dramatic - and all of it is permanent until somebody opens the books and looks line by line. The Lean Dental Practice is a practical cost-control guide for dentists and practice owners who would rather keep what they produce than produce more to cover what they lose. No austerity theatre. No advice to buy cheaper gloves. Just the systems that stop money leaving the practice without a decision behind it. Inside, you'll learn how to: - Calculate your real overhead ratio - and understand why comparing it to a published benchmark tells you almost nothing- Sort every cost into fixed, variable, or step, so you know which ones respond to process and which respond to decisions- Run a twelve-month line-by-line audit that surfaces the drift, the renewal, the duplicate, and the orphan- Build an inventory baseline in a single afternoon, then set par levels and reorder points that end both stockouts and dead stock- Measure inventory turns and stop paying for shelves full of cash- Cut expiry losses with a rotation rule your team will actually follow- Consolidate your spend and negotiate with suppliers from information instead of frustration- Catch price creep with a fifteen-minute quarterly audit- Read the contracts that renew themselves, and build the calendar that defeats them- Find the software seats and modules you're paying for and nobody uses- Decide whether to buy, lease, or wait on equipment - using utilisation, not enthusiasm- Track the six numbers that tell you whether your cost structure is improving The book closes with a 90-day cost reset that sequences every change so your team experiences it as order rather than austerity - and names the three mistakes that make cost programmes collapse in month four. Who this is for: practice owners, office managers, and anyone responsible for what the practice spends. A note on scope: This book covers the business side of running a practice - overhead, inventory, purchasing, supplier management, and capital decisions. It does not address clinical procedures, coding, insurance billing, or regulatory compliance. Procedure pricing is covered in Book 5 of this series. For clinical and regulatory matters, consult your professional association and qualified advisors. Book 2 of The Dental Practice Owner's Library. This item is printed on demand.

Overhead almost never rises in a way anyone notices. A supplier adjusts prices two percent. An extra order goes out because nobody checked the shelf. A service contract renews on terms negotiated four years ago. None of it is dramatic — and all of it is permanent until somebody opens the books and looks line by line.
The Lean Dental Practice is a practical cost-control guide for dentists and practice owners who would rather keep what they produce than produce more to cover what they lose. No austerity theatre. No advice to buy cheaper gloves. Just the systems that stop money leaving the practice without a decision behind it.
Inside, you'll learn how to:
• Calculate your real overhead ratio — and understand why comparing it to a published benchmark tells you almost nothing
• Sort every cost into fixed, variable, or step, so you know which ones respond to process and which respond to decisions
• Run a twelve-month line-by-line audit that surfaces the drift, the renewal, the duplicate, and the orphan
• Build an inventory baseline in a single afternoon, then set par levels and reorder points that end both stockouts and dead stock
• Measure inventory turns and stop paying for shelves full of cash
• Cut expiry losses with a rotation rule your team will actually follow
• Consolidate your spend and negotiate with suppliers from information instead of frustration
• Catch price creep with a fifteen-minute quarterly audit
• Read the contracts that renew themselves, and build the calendar that defeats them
• Find the software seats and modules you're paying for and nobody uses
• Decide whether to buy, lease, or wait on equipment — using utilisation, not enthusiasm
• Track the six numbers that tell you whether your cost structure is improving
The book closes with a 90-day cost reset that sequences every change so your team experiences it as order rather than austerity — and names the three mistakes that make cost programmes collapse in month four.
Who this is for: practice owners, office managers, and anyone responsible for what the practice spends.

Derecho al desistimiento
Si es un consumidor, puede rescindir el contrato de acuerdo con lo siguiente. Por consumidor se entiende cualquier persona física que actúe con fines ajenos a su actividad comercial, empresarial, oficio o profesión.
Información sobre el derecho de desistimiento
Derecho legal de desistimiento
Tiene derecho a rescindir este contrato en un plazo de 14 días sin dar ningún motivo.
El periodo de desistimiento vencerá a los 14 días desde que usted, o un tercero que no sea el transportista e indicado por usted, adquiera la posesión física del último bien o del último lote o pieza.
Para ejercer el derecho de desistimiento, complete de forma electrónica y envíe una declaración clara en nuestro sitio web, desde "Mis compras" en "Mi cuenta". Le enviaremos sin demora un acuse de recibo de dicho desistimiento a través de un soporte duradero (por ejemplo, por correo electrónico).
Para cumplir con el plazo de desistimiento, basta con que envíe su comunicación relativa al ejercicio del derecho de desistimiento antes de que venza el periodo de desistimiento.
Efectos del desistimiento
Si rescinde este contrato, le reembolsaremos todos los pagos que hayamos recibido de usted, incluidos los gastos de envío (excepto los gastos adicionales que surjan si elige un tipo de envío que no sea el tipo de envío estándar más económico que ofrecemos).
Podemos hacer una deducción del reembolso por la pérdida de valor de cualquier bien suministrado, si la pérdida es el resultado de una manipulación innecesaria por su parte.
Efectuaremos el reembolso sin demoras indebidas y, a más tardar, 14 días después de que se nos informe de su decisión de rescindir este contrato.
Efectuaremos el reembolso utilizando el mismo medio de pago que utilizó para la transacción inicial, a menos que haya acordado expresamente lo contrario; en cualquier caso, no incurrirá en ningún cargo como resultado de dicho reembolso.
Podremos retener el reembolso hasta que hayamos recibido los bienes o hasta que nos haya presentado una prueba de que los ha devuelto, lo que ocurra primero.
Deberá devolver los bienes o entregarlos a Grand Eagle Retail, Bensenville, Illinois, U.S.A., sin demoras indebidas y, en cualquier caso, en un plazo máximo de 14 días a partir del día en que nos comunique su desistimiento del presente contrato. El plazo se cumple si devuelve la mercancía antes de que venza el periodo de 14 días. Tendrá que asumir los gastos directos de devolución de los bienes. Usted solo es responsable de la disminución del valor de los bienes como resultado de una manipulación distinta a la necesaria para establecer la naturaleza, las características y el funcionamiento de los bienes.
Excepciones al derecho de desistimiento
El derecho de desistimiento no se aplica a lo siguiente:
- La entrega de periódicos, diarios o revistas, con la excepción de los contratos de suscripción; y
- El suministro de contenido digital que no se proporcione en un soporte tangible (por ejemplo, en un CD o DVD) si, al hacer el pedido, aceptó que podíamos empezar a entregarlo y que no podría desistir una vez iniciada la entrega.
