“It was amazing for me to see such a humble hygienist explain how it is possible for an R.D.H. to produce $2500-$3800 dollars per day. Colleen has developed a unique system through her own initiative. She knows product usage, proper techniques and patient motivation. She can make your hygienist a much more profitable member on your team and do it with sensitivity. Your hygienist will love learning and genuinely enjoy being with her. Consider contacting Colleen soon because this new advisor is a winner!
Get there before the line forms.”

“I read about Colleen Rutledge, RDH, a true diamond in hygiene training, in a recent Dental Economics article and contacted her to do in-office training for my five hygienists. It was by far the best investment that we made!! She came into the office for four days, the first day being an all team meeting followed by three days of hands-on perio patients with the hygienists. Her energy level is incredible and her training skills impeccable. She is a still a practicing hygienist, in addition to consulting and lecturing. I have already, in only one week, seen a new energy level and comfort in diagnosing periodontal disease in all five of my hygienists. They have all increased their daily production up to $400/day!”

“Colleen Rutledge, RDH, has been a Godsend to many of our clients over the past few years. Our practice management consulting firm believes that the hygiene department is the foundation for growth of all dental practices. In many practices we find not only many openings in the hygiene daily schedule (which we can improve easily), but we also find sub-standard clinical hygiene care.
An example of Colleen's work in a two doctor practice: Three hygienists were producing $44,000 per month. Through effective communication and scheduling (pre-Colleen), we were able to see a $10,000 per month increase in hygiene to the $54,000 monthly level. Fast forward two years (post Colleen), these same two dentists now have four fulltime hygienists (16 days per month each) who averaged $84,267 per month this past year.
Every client I have referred to Colleen has called to personally thank me and their question was: Why didn't you MAKE me call her sooner? If your hygiene department is holding you back, make this the year you decide to fix it and reap the rewards for your patients, your team and you. A higher level of quality care and a better net income awaits. Everyone wins!”
