Ep. 596 - Managing Personal Protective Equipment Costs – Without Compromising Safety Aug 28, 2024

Show notes

When it comes to buying your dental supplies, everyone is looking to save money. But when you're shopping for PPE, like a dental glove or mask, you have to be extremely cautious about whom you're actually buying from. After all, gloves and masks are considered medical devices. So the question is, do you completely trust your vendor and are you sure you're actually getting PPE that has gone through the rigorous quality control that's part and parcel with an FDA-approved and medical grade device? To help us better understand how to manage the cost and quality of our PPE, are two incredibly knowledgeable people, Linda Harvey and Mary Govoni. They are arguably among the best educators, authors and speakers on the topic of Infection Prevention and Control.

Ep. 594 - Taking a Seat at the Table: Women's Role in Leadership in Dentistry Aug 21, 2024

Show notes

Women have historically been central to the field of dentistry, constituting over 95% of dental assistants, hygienists, and office managers. However, when it comes to women in leadership roles within practices, organized dentistry, and the industry, the percentages don't reflect this same level of representation. In this episode we'll delve into the relevance of this disparity with our guest Dr. Lauren Rainey. Dr. Rainey owns and operates her own clinical practice and currently teaches direct restorative techniques to dentists in the US & Canada.
