Find Out Where Your Compliance Gaps Are
Many practices don't realize where gaps exist until there's a complaint, inspection, or incident. This quick assessment highlights common problem areas and gives you a clearer picture of where your practice stands and how your current processes stack up against other dental offices. Answer the questions below based on your current processes.
Have you ever received an OSHA complaint, citation, or letter and felt unsure how to respond?
Have you ever received a HIPAA inquiry and didn't know how to reply?
Have you ever questioned whether something in your practice is truly compliant?
Would you feel confident during an OSHA inspection?
Do your written programs match how your practice actually operates?
Do you have someone you can call when compliance questions come up?
Have you ever had an exposure incident or breach and weren't sure what to do next?
Are you relying on generic templates or free online resources for compliance?
Have you had issues with chemical labeling or SDS access?
Would an expert review give you more confidence in your program?
Why Would You Do a Virtual Inspection?
Most compliance programs stop after delivering documents. This process focuses on implementation, starting with a live virtual inspection that shows what is working, what needs attention, and what to prioritize first.
A credentialed compliance advisor (DISIPC/CHPA) meets with your team for a 1-2 hour Microsoft Teams inspection. During this session, the advisor reviews your facility and workflows while evaluating how your workflow aligns with OSHA, HIPAA, and other requirements. The inspection is based on how standards are applied in real inspections, not just what the written regulations say.
After the inspection, you receive a summary of findings, recommended changes, and an overall compliance score. As your team completes updates, those changes are submitted for review and approved by your advisor. This creates an ongoing, interactive process where your compliance score improves as issues are addressed.
What the process includes:
A live virtual inspection of your facility and workflows
Guidance from a credentialed advisor with dental compliance expertise
Identification of applicable standards and compliance gaps
Recommendations based on real-world enforcement practices
A summary report with prioritized next steps and compliance score
Ongoing review, approval of updates, and progress tracking as improvements are completed
Ways Advisor Guidance Supports Your Office
Training covers required topics, but it does not answer every question that comes up in a working office. A compliance advisor gives your team someone to call when issues need review, documentation needs to be updated, or next steps are unclear.
That kind of ongoing help makes compliance easier to manage day to day, especially as the office changes.
Ongoing Compliance Support
Compliance advisors help your practice put compliance into action. They work with your team to interpret state-specific requirements and determine the right next steps when issues arise. Whether you are responding to an incident, addressing a concern, or strengthening internal processes, advisors provide practical, practice-specific guidance.
Custom Programs and Documentation
Compliance advisors help generate and complete custom written programs for your office, including job hazard assessments, HIPAA risk assessments, and other required documentation. Instead of spending hours filling out templates, your advisor gathers the necessary information through a short interview and builds the documentation for you.
Incident, Citation, and Breach Support
When something happens, your office has a clear place to turn. Advisors help you work through incidents, understand what needs to be documented, and decide what to do next. This helps your team respond more consistently and ensures issues or interruptions never become emergencies.

Expert Consulting
Some situations go beyond routine compliance questions. When an issue is unusually specific, high-risk, or difficult to interpret, expert consulting gives dental practices access to experienced compliance guidance without the cost of maintaining that expertise internally.
Smart Training's expert consulting services support dental offices with OSHA and HIPAA, infection control, regulatory response, corrective action planning, documentation review, and operational compliance. Practices can bring forward concerns, breach incidents, inspection questions, or difficult compliance scenarios and receive practical, experience-based direction tailored to operational dental environments.
Rather than generic recommendations, expert consulting helps practices strengthen compliance systems, reduce regulatory risk, improve defensibility, and make informed operational decisions with confidence.
Expert consulting is provided by a credentialed healthcare compliance professional with advanced training in OSHA, HIPAA privacy and security, infection prevention, and dental healthcare operations, supported by hundreds of hours of occupational safety, regulatory, and continuing dental education.
When This Applies
Some OSHA situations extend well beyond routine workplace inspections or standard compliance questions. OSHA consulting is designed for higher-risk, complex scenarios where interpretation of regulations, enforcement navigation, or citation exposure requires deeper analysis than a general compliance review can provide.
Common Support Areas
Support may include citation response guidance, evaluation of alleged violations, interpretation of OSHA standards and incorporated consensus standards, compliance directive review, Local and National Emphasis Program analysis, hazard assessment, documentation defensibility, and evaluation of overlapping horizontal and vertical standards within dental healthcare environments.
Experience & Background
OSHA compliance consultation is informed by Certified Safety and Health Official training through TEEX, advanced regulatory education, and hundreds of hours of case-based applied healthcare compliance experience.
