The chrisad No Limits Conference brings together some of dentistry’s highest-performing practices for a full-day event focused on growth, leadership, and building systems that drive long-term success.

Attendees will hear real-world strategies from practice owners and leaders who have built highly productive, associate-driven practices with strong hygiene programs, exceptional new-patient flow, and operational systems that enable greater freedom and scalability.

Topics throughout the day include:

  • Practice growth and leadership
  • Scheduling and productivity systems
  • Building high-performing teams
  • Associate-driven practice models
  • Hygiene growth and operational efficiency
  • Creating systems that reduce stress and increase profitability

Presentation with Dr. David Ahearn

Hiring the Right People: Building Exceptional Teams Through Better Systems

One of the greatest predictors of practice success is the quality of the team you build.

At this year’s event, Dr. Dave Ahearn will share the proven hiring systems and evaluation processes used inside Design Ergonomics and his own practices to identify top performers, improve culture, and reduce costly hiring mistakes.

This presentation goes beyond traditional hiring advice. Dr. Ahearn will walk attendees through a more strategic, data-driven approach to actual hiring decisions, helping dentists better understand personality fit, performance indicators, communication styles, and long-term team alignment.

Because great practices are never built by accident. They are built by intentionally developing the right people, systems, and culture.

For event details, registration, and additional information, visit the chrisad website.

Watch the playlist below featuring Design Ergonomics CEO and Founder Dr. David Ahearn and chrisad Chief New Client Officer Cory Schoebel as they discuss the systems that help dental practices achieve greater efficiency, profitability, and freedom. 

 

TTI Practice Growth Retreat

July 17–18, 2026
Boston, MA

The TTI Practice Growth Retreat is designed for practice owners and leadership teams who want more than theory; they want implementation.

These immersive workshop-style retreats bring together high-performing dental leaders from across the country to focus on practical strategies that improve productivity, profitability, leadership, and operational execution.

Attendees can expect:

  • Real-world practice growth strategies
  • Hands-on implementation workshops
  • Leadership and communication training
  • Collaborative problem-solving
  • Systems designed to improve efficiency and reduce operational stress

Experience the Future of Productive Equipment

Design Ergonomics will also be showcasing a live op environment featuring our chair and workstation solutions. Attendees will have the opportunity to:

  • Experience new levels of comfort, convenience, and capability in dental delivery
  • Understand how treatment room design influences team efficiency and patient flow
  • Learn how better workflows reduce stress, fatigue, and wasted motion

Most practices underestimate the impact of physical design on daily performance.

When workflows, equipment positioning, and operatory systems are intentionally designed together, the result is a practice that feels calmer, moves faster, and performs at a significantly higher level.

For membership details, event information, and registration opportunities, visit the TTI website or connect with the Design Ergonomics team to learn more.

If you are not currently a TTI member, connect with the Design Ergonomics team to learn how you can gain access to this exclusive event experience. We currently have a limited number of passes remaining for this members-only event.

For now, check out our appearance on the “Double Your Production” podcast with Dr. John Meis and Wendy Briggs, where Angie Bachman (Director of Clinical Training and Education) discusses clinical bottlenecks, workflow optimization, practice productivity, and the systems that help dental practices grow with greater efficiency, profitability, and freedom.

The Event That Shows Dentists What a Truly Optimized Practice Looks Like

 

Most dentists have never had the opportunity to walk through a practice intentionally designed around productivity, efficiency, ergonomics, and team experience.

This event changes that.

Join us for an immersive one-day learning experience where attendees will step inside a high-performing practice and see firsthand how systems and design dramatically improve the way a dental office functions.

This is not theoretical learning. It is real-world implementation.

Attendees will learn how to:

  • Transform sterilization flow and inventory management
  • Eliminate bottlenecks and increase room turnaround efficiency
  • Optimize clinical workflows and office layouts
  • Reduce team stress and improve retention
  • Create world-class systems that support long-term growth
  • Build a practice environment that is easy and fun to work in every day

Whether you are planning a startup, renovation, expansion, or simply trying to improve your current operations, this event provides practical ideas that can transform the way your practice functions.

Because the best dental offices are not just beautiful. They are intentionally designed systems built to support performance.

Hear from Dr. Diego Herrera from Bedford Dental Care in Westchester, NY, who shares his experience attending an over-the-shoulder event as his practice doubles in size and productivity.

Join Us This Summer

At Design Ergonomics, we believe the future of dentistry belongs to practices that combine exceptional leadership, intelligent systems, efficient workflows, and intentional design.

These events are designed to help dentists think differently about what is possible.

We look forward to connecting with you this summer and helping you build a practice that is more productive, profitable, and enjoyable for your team and patients alike.
