    <description><![CDATA[<p>In this episode of the Dental Flow Podcast, host Benjamin Suggs shares a straightforward yet powerful strategy for dental practices to boost new patient bookings: instructing front desk staff to always offer an appointment time on every new patient call. By doing so, practices can uncover and address real objections that prevent bookings, gather valuable data on why patients may not schedule, and identify opportunities for operational improvements.
