Raising Perio Performance with Ed Faton RDH (The Hygiene Coach) Part Two
Monday, 27 October, 2025
Got questions? Send Ericka a Text!Stop letting a benefits table decide your standard of care. We sit down with dental billing expert Ed to tear down the fear, myths, and mixed messages that keep teams from coding honestly, educating clearly, and treating confidently. From fluoride and adult sealants to SDF that literally shows patients a visible change, we talk through how to make prevention tangible and persuasive without hiding behind “what insurance allows.”We get real about code 4346: when a gingivitis cleaning is performed, document it, submit it, and stop defaulting to prophy because it feels safer. You’ll hear why underutilization hurts reimbursement, how to manage downgrades and co-pays with straight talk, and why transparency plus consistency builds trust faster than “people-pleasing” benefit games. Ed shares the operational fixes that work: clinicians educate and treat; the front handles money and benefits. With set protocols for LBR, LAPT, and perio maintenance, case acceptance climbs—even in tough markets.Then we shift into leadership and metrics. Treat your column like a business and aim for 3.5x your daily pay to sustain raises, instruments, and training. Design intentional schedules that blend perio maintenance, SRP, re-evals, and preventive services. Train smarter: integrate lasers and SDF to control disease and show results. We highlight common myths from seminars and social media that sabotage coding and scheduling, and we replace them with clear steps, aligned scripts, and practical KPIs, including 4346 utilization, perio maintenance rates, and photo documentation.If you want ethical documentation, stronger production, and healthier patients without awkward fee chats, this conversation will become your playbook.
