In this brief YouTube dialogue, Speaker A asks how to convince a dentist to purchase a dental imaging/diagnostic product. Speaker B outlines the core selling points: the technology makes radiographs easy for patients to understand, which increases acceptance and trust; it reveals hard‑to‑see conditions that many dentists currently miss, unlocking additional revenue for the practice. The conversation confirms that dentists can indeed earn more money each time they run a scan, and hints at a subscription‑style pricing model (approximately $500 per month) that covers the scans. The exchange exemplifies a persuasive, conversational sales pitch aimed at dental professionals.

Give me a sense for why a dentist is buying. If I'm a dentist, how do you sell me?
Increased patient acceptance, increasing the trust when they see the radiographs which they can understand. Second, there are a lot of findings that the doctor miss today, hard-to-see conditions. There's a lot of money left on the table for them.
So does the dentist make more money with this? More money. Every time they run a scan? Exactly. How much do they pay for the whole?
We run through a subscription It's about $500 a month. And if we go into insurance side, they pay us per claims that we process for them.
