Services
The Tooth Fairy provides both general improvements consisting primarily of cleaning
and fillings, as well as cosmetics improvements. The cost for cleanings are around
$100, not including x-rays. The cost for fillings ranges significantly depending on the
material used. Dr. Extractor will be deriving the majority of revenue from cosmetics
by the end of the year.
Cosmetics can be classified into three main areas:
Veneers. These are porcelain shells that are bonded to the front of the
teeth. They reshape the tooth and make the tooth whiter in color. The costs of
veneers range from $600-800 per tooth.
Gap removal. This procedure uses tooth-colored plastic that is bonded to places
where there should be tooth material. The removal of gaps makes a significant
improvement to a smile. The cost for gap removal ranges from $300-$1,000.
The Tooth Fairy will be billing customers at a per procedure rate. Only a portion of the
cosmetics will be billed to an insurance company, the bulk will be paid by the individual.
Adults. Younger adults, typically 27-39 who are concerned with their
appearance. This group can be further defined as both male and female with
individual incomes over $45,000 a year. While some of the target group are
professionals, a large segment of this target segment are-live-at-home spouses
who do not have a full time job. This group is more likely than not to consider
cosmetic surgery as a method from improving their appearance.
Seniors. This group sees dental work as a safe way to improve they way they
look. They prefer cosmetic dentistry over plastic surgery, which is viewed as a
risky cosmetic surgery that this group is less likely to use. The seniors typically
live off of more than $50,000 a year in retirement savings. This group is almost
entirely retired and their day is mainly composed of leisure time activities.

The generalist. This type of dentist has a practice centered around general
maintenance and does not specialize.
The specialist. This type of dentist will have a general practice, but in addition to
the general practice, they have an area that they specialize in, such as
cosmetics.
The buying patterns of patients are based on referrals and trust. People will chose a
dentist preferably based on a referral if that is possible. People new to an area may be
unable to get a referral so they find a service provider based on advertising or the
Yellow Pages and if they feel comfortable with the provider then they tend to form a
long-term relationship with them.
The Tooth Fairy will leverage their two competitive edges to generate market share.
Flexibility. The Dr. recognizes that his patients have busy schedules so he has
tailored his practice around being flexible to meet the customers needs. This is
an extension to their competitive advantage of customer service, however, the
Dr.'s concentration on flexibility is worth noting separately. The Dr. does not
have set office hours in which to schedule appointments within. He is willing to
schedule an appointment at whatever time is needed, including nights or
weekends.
To develop good business strategies, perform a SWOT analysis of your business. It's easy with our free
guide and template. Learn how to perform a SWOT analysis
consumer to feel that they arrived at the decision themselves instead of them agreeing
to a sales pitch.
When a patient comes in to see the doctor, there is no charge for the initial
consultation. During this consultation, the Dr. will educate the customer on the
different procedures and then analyze the patient's particular needs. The patient is
then free to ask any questions they have. After the customer is fully knowledgeable
about all the different variables that will effect their procedure, they are then allowed to
make a decision as to whether to have any work done. This sales strategy is geared
toward turning prospective customers into long-term customers who are then quite
vocal to their friends about the pleasant experiences they had with The Tooth Fairy.

Management Summary
Steve Extractor got his undergraduate degree in biology from Case Western
Reserve. While at Case, Steve knew he wanted to practice health care but was unsure
of exactly what. Toward the end of his years at Case, Steve discovered his interest in
dentistry.
Several years later Steve became a graduate of The Ohio State University College of
Dentistry. Steve knew that he did not want to live in Ohio for the rest of his life so he
immediately upon graduating moved out to Oregon, a state that he was always fond of
due to its natural beauty. The first four months were difficult to make contacts and find
a job, but Steve eventually landed a job in an eight person firm doing general dentistry.
This was a good environment for Steve because it allowed him to use his colleagues as
mentors to grow his skill sets. Steve spent five years practicing general dentistry, and
by this time, Steve was no longer developing professionally so he decided to learn new
cosmetic techniques. While still practicing, Steve began to shadow his colleagues
learning cosmetic techniques. After four months of the shadowing, Steve began to see
clients for cosmetic procedures and was quite proficient.
At this point friction within the practice began to surface as the other Drs. began to feel
threatened by Steve's new skills and thought that his success would be at the expense
of their profits. It was then that Steve decided that his best career move would be to
open up his own practice, allowing him the freedom to manage it himself. He began by
looking for already established practices which would allow him to open his
practice quicker because all the equipment was set up and ready to go. In order to
save money when purchasing an existing practice, Steve decided to look for practices
that did not have a large list of patients. After several months of looking, Steve found
a Dr. who was retiring with a small list of patients and went into negotiations for the
practice. After three weeks, the deal was sealed.
