Case Acceptance Rate

If half of your recommended treatment never gets scheduled, marketing won’t fix the gap. Across thousands of offices, average case acceptance sits around 50-60% for existing patients and 25-35% for new patients. Top performers climb much higher by improving presentation, financing options, and follow-through.

How to improve with PbN: Use role-based dashboards to spot low acceptance by provider/procedure, then enable options like Payment Plans and Automated Follow-ups to turn “maybe later” into “booked.”

No-Show or Late
Cancellation Rate

Empty chairs quietly drains production. Industry data places typical dental no-show rates around 11-15%, with some offices seeing more. Consistent reminders, easy rescheduling, and online booking reduces missed appointments.

How to improve with PbN: Automate multi-channel reminders (SMS/email/voice), surface same-day openings, and track trends to adjust reminder frequency for better results.

Hygiene Re-Appointment (Recall) Rate

The fastest way to a full schedule is re-appointing before patients leave. Many practices average 65-70% re-appointment while industry leaders target 85-90% to stabilize hygiene and increase restorative treatment.

How to improve with PbN: Use Daily Huddle and hygiene dashboards to flag unscheduled patients, then trigger recall campaigns (text/email) with Click-to-Book links.
