DINKS with Dr. Travis Campbell of Dental Insurance Guy
Send us Fan Mail Chad and JB spend some time with Dr. Travis Campbell talking all things insurance! This topic is so vitally important for the health and success of all practices whether FFS or in network. Travis has spent years gaining a deeper understanding of how insurance companies work and how to optimize your relationship with them. Dr. Travis Campbell, has been a practicing dentist since 2009, after graduating from Baylor University in Waco, Texas (2005) and then Baylor College of Dentistry in Dallas, Texas. Yes, Dr. Campbell is a born and bred Texan, and proud of it. But even more notable, dentistry simply runs through his veins. He announced he “wanted to be a dentist” after his first dental visit at the age of three, and never once changed his goal. Today, dentistry remains a passion. He still loves the clinical side of treating patients, yet early on he developed a similar passion for the business end of running a practice. In fact, before he graduated from dental school, he built a vision and business plan for 380 Family Dentistry in Prosper, Texas. At the time, the town of Prosper was a very tiny community well north of Dallas. There were cattle living across the highway from his first office! Dr. Campbell is now an author, trainer, speaker, contributor to various online dental communities, and dental coach and consultant. Ever an entrepreneur, Dr. Campbell purchased a second dental practice, in Garland, Texas in the fall of 2019. Having gained a reputation as a resource for other dentists in the complex area of dental insurance, Dr. Campbell’s new “moniker” is “The Dental Insurance Guy!” From understanding insurance to developing strategies to accelerate practice growth, Dr. Campbell delivers practical, actionable content that dentists and team members can use immediately. He dispels many of the myths and misinformation around today’s dental insurance policies and explains how to navigate the complexities of being an exceptional dentist, business owner, and leader while still having a life outside of work.

Do You Take My Plan??? Exploring the Harsh Realities of Dental Insurance | Humpday Happy Hour™
Send us Fan Mail Dental insurance is often one of the most misunderstood parts of oral healthcare. Many patients assume their dental insurance works like medical insurance, only to discover coverage limitations, denied claims, waiting periods, and unexpected out-of-pocket costs. At the same time, dental practices are often left navigating complex insurance rules while trying to help patients receive the care they need. In this special episode of Humpday Happy Hour™, Dr. Chad Duplantis and Dr. Jeff Horowitz take an honest look at the realities of dental insurance. They discuss how dental benefits are structured, what "in-network" and "out-of-network" really mean, why treatment recommendations and insurance coverage don't always align, and how insurance decisions can impact both patients and providers. Whether you're trying to understand your benefits, make sense of a treatment estimate, or simply learn more about how dental insurance works behind the scenes, this episode will help you become a more informed healthcare consumer. Join us for an open conversation about the challenges, misconceptions, and realities of dental insurance—and what patients can do to better advocate for their oral health. #DentalInsurance #OralHealth #PatientEducation #DentalBenefits #DentistsInTheKnow #HumpdayHappyHour
