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.

What is the best way to reduce pain, swelling and tenderness in wisdom teeth extractions?

A recent study compared the use of EXPAREL versus standard bupivacaine and found ‘no significant difference.’

But what if there’s a way to combine the two for optimal pain control?

On this episode of Dentist Brian Candy, I explain why and how I use standard bupivacaine along with EXPAREL for pain control with my patients.

I discuss the topics covered at our upcoming Cutting Edge Dental Implant Symposium, including a lecture around using the HITECH Act to improve care and increase profitability.

Listen in to understand how I leverage Jet Virtual Consults to get home on time (even on days with trauma emergencies) and learn how to become one of the 50 advocate-doctors for my JVC app!
