Aiming for Growth in 2026? Add Temps to Your Strategy
Adding temps to your office’s staffing plan is a cost-effective solution for bringing in new patients while keeping employer cost low.
If increasing your practice’s revenue is a target for 2026, incorporating the use of temps in your staffing plan yields quick results while keeping employer-related costs low.
Bringing in new patients to an established practice helps increase revenue potential, including additional opportunities for more restorative procedures. With your existing hygiene staff managing established patients, bringing in a Cloud Dentistry temp carves a new path for welcoming new patients.
Opening a schedule column for new patients with a Cloud Dentistry temp onboards patients to your office who don’t already have a favorite staff hygienist, while practice owners pay 10% less in staffing costs.
Unlike the standard recruitment process of finding the perfect full-time hire (can be as long as six weeks), Cloud Dentistry’s temps are ready to get to work – having already completed a background check and identification verification. Requiring minimal orientation, Cloud Dentistry’s temps can deliver immediate return on investment by streamlining new patient revenue, for less than a full-time hire.
Hygiene temps through Cloud Dentistry are up to 10% lower in employer-related costs, saving your practice expenses related to insurance, benefits, employee perks, payroll taxes, and more. Plus, offices have flexibility with temps if patients cancel/reschedule – temps can be sent home without additional fees.
Unlike most staffing agencies, Cloud Dentistry doesn’t charge placement or buy-out fees. If your short-term strategy to bring in new patients with a temp results in the need of a full-time hire, you’ll save approximately $5,000 in typical agency buy-out costs. A true win-win.
