The Dental Hacks Podcast

Alan shares his recent findings on dental supply purchasing, questioning the long-standing industry model where dentists pay a premium for the convenience and supposed "best price" offered by a dedicated sales rep. He argues that this relationship-based purchasing lacks transparency and costs practices significant money, especially as overhead increases and reimbursements remain flat. Alan endorses his sponsor, Net 32, as a modern solution, highlighting its efficiency and transparency as an online network of suppliers that instantly offers the lowest available price. Through personal invoice comparisons, he demonstrates that switching to this system results in substantial, immediate savings on common materials, making it a powerful way for dentists to reduce overhead without sacrificing quality or convenience.
