Presentation Description

How do you define career success in our rapidly changing dental industry? Where is the most effective area for a dentist to place her time and effort? Join Dr. Mauterer in her journey from nurturing a scratch start private practice all the way to partnering with a DSO. Learn about dental industry trends and where we are headed. Hear stories “from the other side” of partnering with a DSO and some of the pros and cons of choosing this career pathway. Discuss all of the common “what-ifs” that dentists will have to face when deciding which direction to take their practices. Finally, hear some honest feedback about the emotions involved with the choice to partner with a DSO and whether or not this choice can fit into your definition of career success.
Meet Dr. Carrie Mauterer

Awarded Top Dentist from 2011-2108
A self proclaimed “enamel hugger”, Dr. Carrie is honored to help her patients attain a high level of health, beauty and well-being. She states, “My goal for all of my patients is to help them understand all of their options. I talk with every one of my patients about their health, their needs, their busy lives and their financial concerns and we find solutions together that suit each individual patient”.
If you hear singing, it is no doubt Dr. Carrie serenading the children who grace her chair. It not only calms our kiddos but in many cases you will hear the children humming along as they are coached through their appointments. Her repertoire ranges from Sesame Street songs to Star Wars’s Imperial March depending on the song requests of her patient.
