We always talk to our patients about how to remove plaque, apply medicaments, and review systemic factors. What if its easier than all of that? What happens when we simply change our diet instead? Katrina Sanders explains how we can get healthier through diet alone in this short Ask The Experts segment!

Leadership is about failure and experience. In this part 2, we pick up where we left off with Dr. Pam Maragliano and Dr. David Rice as they give expert advice to those looking to succeed in this dental world in which we live. This episode is not to be missed!!

Drs Pam Maragliano and David Rice bring the heat in this crossover episode with the Dentistry Unmasked Podcast. Both of these doctors, having experienced low employee turnover and highly successful practices, have found the secret sauce. As they look around, it seems almost unreal how many other practices continue to struggle. Join us in this conversation and hopefully fix or sidestep some of these landmines!

What are the non-clinical AI tools that are out there and are they here to stay? Many practices are scared of change, many simply just do not want to change.... but will the practices of insurance companies force the issue? Are we overreacting about the usefulness of AI in dentistry? Teresa Duncan joins the show to give us some perspective!

In this episode we are talking about waterlines with emphasis on in-office testing. In the past, the testing has maybe taken more time than we have to give, or the process is confusing and we deserve to have clear (actually pink or purple!) results.
