    Very Clinical: Ask Us Anything! Dec 28, 2021
    Show notes

    Kevin and Zach are joined by Alan Mead to do an "Ask Us Anything" segment! First, they talk about New Year's traditions (Twilight Zone anyone?) and then they answered listener questions!

    • What are you looking forward to the most at VOD? Which speaker will leave you speechless?
    • What is the best kind of CE to seek out as a new general dentist?
    • Sometimes I feel as if I'm a less than adequate dentist because I don't use all the newest, greatest technology and I'm not on the cutting edge of new techniques. Can you talk a bit about the dentists that fly under the radar, the ones that just do "tried and true" dentistry? Is there shame in that? Is it important to be on the cutting edge? How does all the newest, latest, greatest make us feel, really? Excited, nervous, hungry?
    • What was the best/most profitable new idea you implemented in your practice this year?

    Some links from the show:

    • Voices of Dentistry
    • The Very Dental Facebook Group

    Why should you care about single patient use burs? I can think of a lot of reasons, but the one your patients are thinking about is this one. What's that sound? That's the sound of a rotary instrument that's never been used on another patient. That's the sound of no cross contamination. That's the sound of your patient knowing that you are looking out for them. Sure you get a super sharp, never been used bur each and every time you open a Microcopy bur, but mostly your patients know that you take cross contamination seriously. Go check out the wide variety of single patient use products at verydentalpodcast.com/microcopy. A new (and sterile) bur…every time. Microcopy Dental.

    Ideal preps. That's what we aim for. One excellent way to get there is to use a core material to build the tooth back up to ideal contour. Cosmecore from Cosmedent is my choice for building up a broken down tooth. It's dual cure, comes in a variety of colors and cuts just like a tooth. You'll get a super smooth finish with no gouging. Right now I've got the 50 gram dispenser that fits in a small impression gun, but when I need to refill I think I'll go with the 8 gram syringe. Both work great, but those syringes are handy and don't take much room on a set up. Check it out at verydentalpodcast.com/cosmecore!

    It's funny, but you never really know how your branding effects people until you see it in your own life. So Jacob, my youngest 11 started Invisalign with a local orthodontist. He's following all the instructions, including taking them out to eat. So I'm CONSTANTLY seeing a case for his aligners with our orthodontist's brand. Like every single day. I'm realizing that cases for aligners, splits and removable offer a brilliant way for people to remember your office and your brand! And then I thought of our friends at Zirc who offer aligner sized and denture sized boxes in tons of colors that you can customize with YOUR logo! They're offering a buy one, get one deal on retainer or denture boxes with your logo and 4 lines of custom print!

Jen and Al talk about the different types of holiday celebrations in their past and Al comes to realize that Jen *really* knows how to do it right! A few suggestions from the queen:

    • DON'T tie it to a bonus
    • DON'T be predictable
    • DON'T include spouses
    • DON'T make your team watch "White Christmas" on the clock!

    Holiday parties can be a really great team building activity and they don't have to be excruciating!

    Shorts: What You Do, Not Who You Are Dec 17, 2021
    Show notes

    Identity is a weird concept. "Dentist" is technically a job description (what you do) but for many of us, including Al, it becomes our identity. Or at least a huge part of it. Al takes a little time to riff on his experience on his history of disengaging from dentistry and how evaluating how you see your identity is a healthy thing to do.

The conversation is wide ranging about technology and how CAD-Ray is making it more accessible to dentists!

    Why should you care about single patient use burs? I can think of a lot of reasons, but the one your patients are thinking about is this one. What's that sound? That's the sound of a rotary instrument that's never been used on another patient. That's the sound of no cross contamination. That's the sound of your patient knowing that you are looking out for them.
