Services

Our Core Services

Rooted in strategy. Grown through experience. Built for specialty dental practices.

At Root and Vine, we don’t believe in one-size-fits-all solutions. We offer custom-built consulting services designed specifically for specialty dental practices. From leadership coaching to patient experience evaluations, we’ll help you create strong systems, empowered teams, and lasting success — from the inside out.

Patient Experience Assessment

See your practice through your patients' eyes.

At Root and Vine, we offer a confidential, full-scope New Patient Assessment designed to reveal the true patient experience from the very first phone call to the final goodbye.
Our discreet evaluation covers every touchpoint: initial communications, paperwork processes, team interactions, chairside conversations, and the overall environment  all observed authentically, without disrupting your team’s natural flow.

This valuable insight helps practices:

  • Identify barriers to case acceptance
  • Uncover reasons for reappointment drop-offs
  • Ensure protocols are being followed
  • Strengthen the patient experience at every level

Following the visit, you’ll receive a comprehensive report with clear findings and actionable recommendations.
Want to take it even further? Add a customized team training designed to address your specific opportunities and empower your team to deliver consistent, outstanding patient care.
Whether as part of a full consulting partnership or a stand-alone service, this assessment equips your practice to grow stronger, healthier, and more patient-centered than ever before.

Specialty Practices Deserve Specialized Training

Specialty practices aren't general practices — and your consulting shouldn't be either.

At Root and Vine, we specialize in working with specialty dental practices because we understand your world is different.

Our consulting addresses the unique needs of specialty practices, including:

  • Building and maintaining strong referral partnerships
  • Creating effective referral marketing strategies and events
  • Standing out among local and regional competition
  • Strengthening patient follow-up systems to protect and enhance referring doctor relationships
  • Training your team to support referral loyalty at every patient interaction
  • Customizing internal and external marketing plans based on specialty goals

We don’t offer cookie-cutter coaching built for general practices.
We offer tailored strategies that help specialty practices root deeply, grow strongly, and thrive long-term.
