Why Dr. Latius Chose Clear Lakes Dental After His Franchise Experience

Dr. Latius had always envisioned a career in dentistry that balanced quality patient care with business success. After working for another franchise dental company and fulfilling his contractual obligations, he began exploring new opportunities that would allow him to grow professionally while also gaining more autonomy over his practice. It wasn’t until he discovered Clear Lakes Dental (CLD) that everything clicked. As Dr. Latius puts it, “It was a no-brainer joining CLD after seeing the operations.”

A Journey Through Franchise Dentistry

Before joining Clear Lakes Dental, Dr. Latius spent years working under a different franchise dental company. While this experience provided valuable exposure to high-volume patient care and structured business operations, it also came with limitations. Many corporate-run franchises prioritize efficiency over personalization, leading to challenges in patient relationships, treatment flexibility, and overall job satisfaction. Dr. Latius knew there had to be a better way to merge strong business practices with patient-centered care.

Discovering Clear Lakes Dental’s Systems and Marketing

During his search for the next step in his career, Dr. Latius came across Clear Lakes Dental. Unlike traditional franchise models, CLD offered a unique system that empowered dentists while providing cutting-edge marketing, recruiting, and operational support. CLD’s approach stood out because it wasn’t just about getting patients through the door—it was about creating a sustainable, thriving practice for its providers. The combination of innovative patient acquisition strategies and streamlined operations made it clear to Dr. Latius that CLD was different.

Why Joining CLD Was a ‘No-Brainer’

After carefully analyzing Clear Lakes Dental’s approach, Dr. Latius knew it was the right fit. The systems in place allowed for seamless patient flow, optimized technology, and a recruitment process that ensured a steady stream of new patients. Unlike his previous experience, where corporate policies dictated every aspect of practice management, CLD gave him the tools and autonomy to build something lasting while still benefiting from the support of an established network. His decision was easy: Clear Lakes Dental was the future of modern dentistry.
