Are You Ready For It...?

The Path from Dental Associate to Practice Owner

In this free lecture for dentists, 20-year practice owner Dr. Terri Pukanich is sharing what it takes to go from an inspired associate to a confident business-woman and leader.

Eligible for 1 hour of CE credit*

A free, 1-hour lecture for dentists who want clarity, confidence, and leadership—before ownership.

You didn’t go to dental school to feel invisible.
And yet here you are—showing up early, staying late, caring deeply about patients and team flow… while decisions are made around you, not with you.

If you’ve ever thought:

“I have all the responsibility, but none of the authority.”

“I know exactly what I’d do differently if this were my practice.”

“I don’t know if I want ownership… but I want more say.”

This masterclass was created for you.

Hi, I’m Dr. Terri Pukanich — founder of Dental BossLady — and I’ve built and run a multi-million dollar dental practice for over 20 years.

Today, I love what I do.
17 ops. Multiple doctors. A strong, accountable team. A practice that runs smoothly and profitably.

But before that?

I was an associate.

And I remember thinking,
“No one is leading this practice.”

There were toxic team members no one would address.
Obvious problems no one would fix.
A principal dentist who seemed… done.

I knew it could be done better.

I always wanted to own — I just didn’t know how to make the leap the right way.

When I bought my first practice, I was clinically confident… but totally unprepared for ownership. I made mistakes, learned fast, and invested heavily in mastering the business side of dentistry.

Now, I help associates go from frustrated and uncertain… to confident, strategic future owners.

If you’ve ever thought,
“There has to be a better way to run a practice than this…”

You’re right.

And this masterclass will show you what it actually takes.

Let’s do this.
