Based on my B to B to C experiences at Essilor and Meetingpoint and my experience with dental practitioners during my time at NKOI, I initiated the Dental Communication Company. The Dental Communication Company enables dental practitioners to enhance/intensify the communication with their patients in order to provide better and more frequent care to them. Of course this improved communication will also help them grow their business. The Dental Communication Company is a joint initiative with Loyalty Lab and part of the Henry Schein Dentalliance program.

Henry Schein is the leading dental depot in the Dutch market. Their mission is to enhance profitability of dentists by offering a wide range of value added services. They were faced with an increasing pressure on prices due to mail order dental depots. In order to protect their market share, the had to remarket their services program, professionalize their services, and expand their services into new area’s. As an interim loyalty consultant, I was given the assignment to develop and implement a new business to business loyalty (point) program together with a new discount structure. The program is marketed under the name of Dentalliance. Patient communication services as provided the Loyalty Lab are (of course) part of the service package.

NKOI is a new concept in the dental industry. Dental implants is a growing market, but only a limited number of dentsist have the experience of placing implants. That's why many dentist have te refer patients for implants to implantlogist. This is raising the barrier for dentitsts and patients. NKOI offers a full service concept with a group of 8 specialized implantologists who are treating patients in the practice of a general dentist. Doing so at reasonable and predictibale prices, we are lowering the barriers for implantology for patients as well as dentist.
