They oversee all administrative operations, including scheduling patient appointments, managing patient records, billing and insurance processing, and ensuring compliance with industry regulations. Furthermore, they may be responsible for staff recruitment, training, and supervision, along with the maintenance of the dental office's financial records, budgets, and payroll. As a result, they form an indispensable part of the dental industry by ensuring the smooth and organized running of dental offices, which ultimately leads to better patient care and satisfaction.
