🎙️ Inspired Hygiene Podcast | Why Even Innovative Dentists Hesitate to Upgrade Their Perio Systems

Welcome back to Season 2 of the Inspired Hygiene Podcast! In this episode, host Rachel Wall, RDH dives deep into the top 5 concerns dental practice owners face when considering a proactive periodontal care program—and how to confidently move past them.

🧩 From staffing fears to patient reactions, we break down:

1. “What if my hygienist leaves?”
   
   
   
   


2. “What will our patients think?”
   
   
   
   


3. “I don’t have time to manage this.”
   
   
   
   


4. “My hygiene team is resistant to change.”
   
   
   
   


5. “I don’t want to be too aggressive.”
   
   
   
   

You'll also hear real-life stories from practices that overcame these exact concerns—and saw transformation in patient care, team morale, and profitability.

📈 Whether you're building your perio program solo or with help from a coach, this episode offers clarity, encouragement, and actionable steps to start making meaningful progress today.
