This week we discuss a novel method to circumvent posture related musculoskeletal disorders in dentistry and oral surgery using prism glasses. We also discussed the history of dental implants over the last 100 years which is timely since this is the 100 year anniversary of the American Association of oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons as well the 75th anniversary of the Journal of Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery.
In this episode I discuss what the prognostic factors are for persistent diplopia after orbital blowout fractures. I also discuss an article that did a benchtop study on the neurotoxicity of articaine versus lidocaine and found that there was no difference in toxicity which would suggest that Articaine may be acceptable for inferior alveolar or mandibular nerve blocks
This week I discuss an interesting survey that was done by the American Association of oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons that is the second annual survey. Their survey asks questions about prescribing patterns and attitudes of oral surgeons. Over 300 people responded to the survey and the results are quite interesting.
This week I discussed Facebook live and successes other businesses have had with Facebook live and ways and tips and tricks on how you can implement this into your dental practice to increase patient engagement brand awareness in the bottom line generate more patients so you do not want to miss this one.
