Most dentists know clear aligners can be a major revenue driver, but actually getting patients to say “yes” is a different story. Practices often rely on marketing to bring in leads, only to lose them due to shaky internal workflows and unclear roles. What if the key to scaling aligners isn’t more ads, but better in-office conversations?

According to Dr. Avi Patel, a leading voice in aligner implementation for general dentists, the answer lies in converting the patients already in your chair. He highlights that most dentists don’t need more leads — they need better systems for communication, team handoffs, and patient education. By focusing on predictable cases and teaching every team member their role, practices can dramatically boost case acceptance without external marketing. This shift not only increases production, but also improves patient outcomes and practice morale.

In this episode of The Marketing 32 Show, host Brett Allen sits down with Dr. Avi Patel, Founder of Clear Aligner Advisor, to talk about how dentists can generate millions in aligner revenue without flashy marketing. They dive into internal conversion workflows, team-driven patient education, and why pitching oral health over cosmetics makes all the difference.
