AI, Adoption, and the Reality of Change Inside DSOs

True growth in dentistry isn't just about expanding your footprint—it’s about mastering execution. In this episode, Ali Hyatt, Chief Customer and Growth Officer at Henry Schein One, joins us to break down eye-opening insights from the recent Catalyst Report [https://www.flipsnack.com/henryscheinone/catalyst-index-dso]. She challenges the myth that scale automatically equals success, revealing how the top 10% of DSOs are using data and agentic AI to drive clinical consistency, boost patient retention, and accelerate payments. Key Highlights: * Scale doesn't equal success; smarter execution does * AI-driven workflows improve patient outcomes and operational efficiency * Real-world examples of AI in dental operations * Importance of mastering core business practices for sustainable growth * Putting Doctors First: Why dentists are the foundation of practice success, and how aligning new technology with clinical workflows is essential to prevent burnout and secure provider buy-in.
