About this listen

In this episode of The Stress-Free Dentist Show, Dr. Eric Block sits down with Dr. Zina Berry, retired dentist, entrepreneur, and founder of Z-Loupes to explore her journey through early practice ownership, public health dentistry, burnout, and reinvention. Dr. Berry shares powerful lessons from purchasing a practice straight out of dental school, navigating high-volume community health settings, and recognizing the physical toll dentistry takes on the body. The conversation dives into how neck and back pain, infection-control concerns, and ergonomic challenges inspired the creation of Z-Loupes, a lighter, more hygienic loupe system designed with longevity in mind, especially for female clinicians. This episode is packed with real-world insights on efficiency, resilience, and building a dental career that supports both performance and well-being.
