The Very Dental Podcast Network

The Brain Trust features several "mid-career" dentists looking back and reflecting on what worked out great and what didn't work out as well.

Alan is joined by Dr. Brent Young, Dr. Frank Clayton, Dr. Tammy Bailey and (eventually) Dr. Melissa Zettler. They dig deep to help younger/newer dentists avoid some of the things that didn't work out so well for them while recommending some things that turned out great! This one is epic and should not be missed!

Teresa Duncan joins the Dental Hacks to talk about no one's favorite topic: dental insurance.

Teresa Duncan wants you to know that she's hilarious and awesome...and she is. Dental insurance is not, though. Often times dealing with dental insurance sucks. That's what Teresa talks to the Hacks about in episode 157. We still have some laughs, but even better is the information that Teresa shares! Teresa's most recent book "Moving Your Patients to Yes: Easy Insurance Conversations" should top your "must read" list and she's giving Dental Hacks listeners a crazy discount ($3 off!) by using the code "Hacks" at checkout. A second amazing deal is $50 off her amazing online Dental Insurance Skills Training using the same code: Hacks.

The Dental Hacks are joined by Dr. Dawn Kulongowski, Dr. Lance Timmerman and Dr. Frank Clayton to grapple with weird and difficult hypothetical situations in a rousing game of "What would you do?"

If you were an associate and your owner dentist's hands are starting to shake, what do you do? What would you tell yourself if you had a time machine that took you to your graduation day from dental school? This and many other dilemmas are hilariously discussed by a panel of all star Brain Trusters!
