In a dental practice, there are a variety of areas in which a dentist could employ project-managementtechniques to increase the efficiency of the office:
* Updated or new marketing literature and plans for the coming year
* A new computer or telephone system
* Purging patient charts. Admittedly, this won't be a popular project, but...
* Designing a new reception area or children's area
* Creating a web site for the practice
* Creating an office newsletter
* Designing new patient education brochures
* Organizing your dental supply system
