Episode Title
Coachability, Accountability, and Growth: How Sunrise Dental Solutions Helps Dentists Build Profitable, Ethical Practices Through Better Systems

Description
In this episode of the Dentistry in General Radio Network, Dr. Bob sits down with Dr. Tony Feck, founder of Sunrise Dental Solutions, to explore why many successful dentists still struggle with growth, profitability, and fulfillment. The conversation focuses on how modern dentistry has changed, why systems—not effort—determine outcomes, and how coaching, training, and accountability help dentists regain control of their practices while staying ethical and patient-focused.

Highlights
This conversation breaks down why “taking care of patients” alone is no longer enough, how seven-figure practices often hit hidden plateaus, and why coachability is the single most important trait for long-term success. Dr. Feck explains the Sunrise approach to analyzing production, financial, growth, and profitability systems, while emphasizing implementation, accountability, and team involvement as the real drivers of sustainable results.

Personal Passions
Dr. Feck shares his personal journey from private practice ownership to coaching, driven by a desire to help dentists avoid burnout and wasted potential. His passion lies in supporting ambitious, ethical dentists who want more control over their time, income, and professional direction without compromising patient care.

Podcast Vision
This episode reflects the broader mission of Dentistry in General: to give dentists honest conversations about business, systems, and leadership that are rarely addressed in clinical education. The goal is to help dentists think differently, evolve with the profession, and make informed decisions that protect private practice ownership.

Takeaways
Dentistry has evolved, and today’s practice owners need structured systems, outside perspective, and accountability to grow. Coachability, ethical decision-making, and clear implementation plans are what separate stagnant practices from thriving ones. Dentists who invest in their business skills gain the freedom to enjoy both their profession and their lives.

Episode Title
In-Network, Out-of-Network, or Fee-for-Service? How Dentists Know When It’s Time to Change

Description
In this Short episode of the Dentistry in General Radio Network, Dr. Bob speaks with Dr. Tony Feck, founder of Sunrise Dental Solutions, about one of the most pressing business decisions dentists face today: staying in PPO networks or transitioning toward fee-for-service care. The conversation breaks down when PPO participation works, when it quietly erodes profitability, and how dentists can evaluate their overhead, systems, and long-term sustainability before making a change.

Highlights
Dr. Feck explains why PPOs are not inherently bad, but often become problematic as overhead rises and reimbursement fails to keep pace with fee increases. The discussion clarifies how fee-for-service patients frequently subsidize PPO losses, why PPOs function more like expensive marketing companies, and how dentists can calculate whether staying in network has become a race to the bottom.

Personal Passions
Dr. Feck shares his commitment to helping dentists make informed, ethical business decisions rather than emotional or reactive ones. His passion lies in guiding practice owners to regain control of their fees, systems, and patient experience while maintaining high clinical standards and professional integrity.

Podcast Vision
This episode supports the Dentistry in General mission to give dentists practical, real-world business education that is rarely taught in dental school. By addressing difficult topics like PPO dependency, overhead pressure, and patient retention, the podcast helps dentists think strategically about the future of private practice.

Takeaways
PPO participation can work under specific conditions, but for many practices it eventually limits growth and profitability. Dentists must understand their overhead, production capacity, and systems before deciding to go out of network. With proper planning, communication, and internal marketing systems, transitioning away from PPOs can be done strategically rather than fearfully.

Episode Title
Getting Paid for the Dentistry You Do: Why Collection Systems Matter More Than Production

Description
In this short episode of the Dentistry in General Radio Network, Dr. Bob sits down with Dr. Tony Feck, founder of Sunrise Dental Solutions, to address a critical but often overlooked issue in dental practices: dentists are producing dentistry but not getting paid for it. The conversation centers on why profitability is not just about doing more dentistry, but about improving collection systems, enforcing financial policies, and taking control of accounts receivable.

Highlights
Dr. Feck explains why production alone does not guarantee profitability and breaks down the real formula for practice success. The discussion highlights how weak collection systems, poor follow-through on financial policies, and neglected accounts receivable quietly drain cash flow. Dentists are challenged to rethink overdue balances as personal income they have already earned, not just numbers on a report.

Personal Passions
Dr. Feck shares his strong belief that dentists deserve to be paid for the care they provide. His passion lies in helping practice owners stop normalizing unpaid dentistry, implement disciplined systems, and lead their teams with clarity and accountability so financial success matches clinical excellence.

Podcast Vision
This episode reinforces the Dentistry in General mission to bring honest, practical business conversations to dentists. By focusing on real-world systems rather than theory, the podcast aims to help practice owners gain control, reduce financial stress, and build sustainable practices that reward their hard work.

Takeaways
Dentists can produce millions in dentistry and still struggle financially if collection systems are weak. Strong leadership, clear financial policies, and accountability around accounts receivable are essential. When dentists treat overdue money as their own income and build systems to collect it, profitability and peace of mind follow.

Episode Title
A Deep Dive into Better Endodontics and Laser Technology: A Discussion with Dr. Win Nguyen and Dr. Sonny Spera (Part 2)

Description
In Part 2 of this conversation on the Independent Dental Practice Podcast, Dr. Win Nguyen joins Dr. Sonny Spera for an in-depth exploration of modern endodontics, with a strong focus on laser technology. The episode breaks down how lasers, CBCT, and microscopes fit into contemporary endo, why skills must come before technology, and how lasers are transforming both surgical and non-surgical outcomes.

Highlights
Dr. Nguyen explains the concept of the “three big weapons” in endodontics—lasers, CBCT, and microscopes—and makes a compelling case for why lasers should often come first. The discussion covers faster healing, improved visibility during surgical endo, better patient comfort, and the practical business implications of adopting laser technology in a general or endo practice.

Personal Passions
Dr. Nguyen’s passion for high-quality endodontics is rooted in patient-first care, biological principles, and disciplined skill development. His commitment to education, research, and advancing laser applications in endo reflects a drive to challenge outdated assumptions and elevate outcomes for both dentists and patients.

Podcast Vision
This episode aligns with the podcast’s mission to give dentists real-world clinical insight paired with honest conversations about technology, decision-making, and long-term practice growth. Rather than promoting shortcuts, the focus remains on mastering fundamentals before scaling with advanced tools.

Takeaways
Listeners will gain clarity on why lasers can be a true game changer in endodontics, how visibility and bleeding control affect surgical success, and why biology—not just technique or technology—ultimately determines long-term outcomes. The episode encourages dentists to think critically, invest strategically, and approach endo with a deeper understanding of healing and seal.
