Dentist Brain Candy

The podcast is designed for the dentist who likes to learn and improve their practice. The information and content delivered is designed to help the restorative dentist move their practice forward. Each week we start off with an quote that gets the metal gears turning, a book review which will be digested for the listener over a series of episodes pulling out relevant material and applying it to the dental practice. Next an article will be reviewed from the literature and available for download. The show will close with an interesting case that I have come across. Pictures and radiographs, when appropriate will be on the website to review as well. The benefits include having a virtual dental buddy that you can listen to and “hang out with” and talk shop and grow your experience, knowledge and enthusiasm for our profession.

In this show I interview my friend and trusted Implant Rep, Scott Oyler from Nobel Biocare.  We discuss the problem of non-authentic dental implant components and the reasons behind their rise in use and the resulting problems.  Many times the restorative dentist is not aware that their restorations are made up of non-authentic components.  We also discuss Screwmentable restorations, defining this animal and chat about the indications and pearls of use.

This is the second and final part of the Dental Implant Terminology series.  There is a video that pairs with this that you can find at dentistbraincandy.teachable.com

This is designed for the entire team to get everyone on the same plane and level and prepared to answer patient dental implant questions and handle implant cases.  EVERY team member should be made to watch this video series upon hire and then at least once a year to hone everyones knowledge and skills.  I promise that this will increase the number of implant cases you do.

In this episode, I conclude the Great by Choice book review and then move straight into reducing dental anxiety.  This article discusses using essential oils, specifically citrus/orange essential oil to reduce anxiety in an Oral Surgery office.  I then conclude with a simple but cool case of a mucocele removal. Be sure to check it out here!

In this episode, I start off with a quote of the day from none other than Walt Disney! If you think you might recognize the background noise in this episode, then chances are you’ve been to Chuck E Cheese’s! This entire episode was recorded there!

After the QOD I get into the 3 P's of a successful practice.  These include people, process, and patients. Next, I discuss an interesting case that I saw on a Friday, right before the weekend, of a severe facial infection secondary tattoos numbers 18 and 19. The patient did well after his surgical procedure and being admitted to the hospital for IV antibiotics for approximately 72 hours.
