How Building Strong Teams Can “Make” Your Dental Practice

Dr. Jack Bayramyan immigrated to the United States from Yerevan, Armenia at the age of 12. He didn’t speak English when he arrived, but his love for accelerated learning motivated him to learn English fluently within a year’s time. While in dental school, Dr. Jack visited Mexico on a mission trip which became the driving force of his career to focus on children’s dentistry and alleviate their pain and self-consciousness. He would eventually bring smiles to close to one million children throughout the U.S. In 2004, he opened his practice, Kid’s Dental Place. Between 2004 and 2012 he grew his company to eight practices throughout California and Arizona. By 2013, he began restructuring by developing self-managing business operating systems, with specific attention to the needs of his employees. His primary focus became team development so they could in turn provide world-class service to their patients. These systems grew his organization to $20 million in revenue in less than five years. By 2019, Dr. Jack merged KDP with Hero Practice Services, a full-service dental support organization. Since that time he has served on the clinical leadership board of HPS and as an advisor for business growth and development. With the creation of Optimize Practice Services in 2020, Jack is now training and empowering other clinicians to transform into business leaders helping them systematize, scale, and increase the valuation of their practices. Throughout each evolution of Jack’s journey, he has stuck to one simple principle, the true measure of one’s success is creating more value in the lives of others.
