Methodology — Where These Numbers Come From

Every number in this calculator is based on published dental industry data and real-world practice benchmarks. Here's exactly how each figure is derived.

💼 Salary + Benefits (×1.3)

Base salary multiplied by 1.3 to account for employer-side taxes (FICA, unemployment), health insurance, PTO, and other benefits. The 30% overhead multiplier is standard across BLS and ADA benchmarking reports.

📞 Missed Call Revenue

Calls per day × missed call rate × conversion rate × patient lifetime value × working days. Each variable is adjustable so you can match your practice's actual numbers — not industry averages.

📅 No-Show Cost

Based on industry average of 12% no-show rate, 4 appointments per day, and $300 average visit value. This is a conservative estimate — specialty practices often see higher per-visit values.

👥 Patients Lost

Missed calls per day × conversion rate × working days. This represents patients who called your practice, were ready to book, and went elsewhere because no one answered.
