It's easy to remember patient interactions that went poorly. Why is it so hard to remember the great one? There is this thing called "Frequency Illusion" (aka: The Baader-Meinhoff phenomenon) that we humans fall prey to. Why is it that after you buy a car that you see a whole bunch of those cars on the road? Are there really more of them on the road than before you bought it? Or is it your focus and your brain that makes you notice them ALL THE TIME! This tendency is used by marketing companies to make us think the product we're looking at is more common and desirable than it probably is. And social media pours gasoline on this fire! What about when you have a poor patient interaction? Your brain can remember every bad patient visit you've ever had and all the sudden you have a hard time remembering the good ones. Al has a couple feelgood tricks to help break through frequency illusion that will definitely help!

Gen X has seen a lot. We've been around for the introduction of cable tv through the smartphone and social media. Gen X dentists started practicing in the "golden age of cosmetic dentistry" of the 90's and we've seen a lot of change. Some of it for the better and quite a bit of it for the worse. Al is joined by Dr. Craig Harder to talk about some of these changes. Both Craig and Al were practice owners early in their careers and owned practices at the turn of the century. Their wide ranging discussion covered all kinds of topics:

One of the reasons we consistently do things a certain way is due to the lack of friction. Creating systems is all well and good, but when given a choice humans tend to do the easiest thing. And often the easiest thing is the thing that we're used to. Making changes in the way we do things requires:
These two things won’t guarantee success in changing how we do things. But they make a huge difference. In today's episode I talk about some of the struggles I've had in doing things the way that I want to do them vs. the way we've always done them.

Going directly into private practice from dental school is less common than it used to be. Today's guest is Dr. Nicholas Bottorff and he did just that. Now he's a practice owner and one of Incisal Edge's "40 Under 40." Nicholas made some big moves early in his career and many of these moves happened after he asked the right questions. What are the things you need to know about an associateship? What questions really get to the heart of the matter when evaluating a potential associateship or practice purchase. Dr. Bottorff has a lot of thoughts on this as well as encouraging the use of technology to grow your practice.

Are we supposed to offer patients options or suggestions? Or how about "recommendations?" Dental school left Al with some pretty serious baggage. Some of that involves what we owe patients regarding treatment we recommend. Do we need to give them a list of options for every potential treatment? Do we need to talk about treatment options that we don't like or wouldn't do ourselves? Two rules:

Dr. Russell Schafer joins Alan to talk about mental health. The two of them have experience with mental health treatment of different kinds. Russell has struggled on and off with mental health issues that he's pretty convinced started in dental school. Go figure. Al is pretty sure his problems with drugs and alcohol started in dental school as well. These days it's very trendy for people to talk about how important therapy has been for them and Russell and Al agree. But Russell is convinced that psychiatry and medications have been given short shrift in the mental health discussion.

Dr. Frank Clayton joins Kevin and Zach in this throwback episode to talk about roundhouse sealants, running on time and choosing predictability! Original show notes: Frank Clayton seals everything from teeth to driveways to decks and no job is too big, no crack is too large. How many sealants can you place in a single setting? All joking aside, Frank waxes poetic on predictability and finding your happy place in dentistry. Being the decathlon dentist isn't for Frank. He likes to crush on things he's great at. Per usual, Frank brings the funny, but we also coerce him into giving some actual clinical tips with products and stuff on high speed crowns.

"One of the key attributes of an invisible DSO is the doctor is still an owner and therefore continues to lead the practice as an owner. He's making all of the crucial decisions...not the DSO." Chip Fichtner, Large Practice Sales Alan is joined again by Chip Fichtner of Large Practice Sales to talk about an interesting practice model called "Invisible Dental Support Organization." We drill down on the concept and how it differs from a more traditional group/multiple practice as well as a traditional DSO. Does an invisible DSO sound like something that would be a good fit for you? Get in touch with Chip at Large Practice Sales!

Group Function: Dentistry's Self Regulation Problem with Dr. Pam Maragliano-Muniz and Dr. David Rice
Alan had a chance to be on the new "Dentistry Unmasked" podcast with hosts Dr. Pam Maragliano-Muniz and Dr. David Rice a couple weeks ago. It was a great conversation that spent time talking about something that we generally don't want to talk about. Dentistry has a problem with bad actors. We're supposed to be "self policing," but honestly...we're not great at it. This conversation breaks that problem open and talks about it. Do we have all the answers? Not really.

Kevin and Zach are joined by Al for the second part of our series on endodontic predictability and efficiency. Kevin is still giving a course at the 3D Dentist's retreat down in Wake Forest, NC that focuses on a digital workflow in endodontics. Today's conversation focuses on workflow with the restorative aspect of the endo procedure in mind. Is the single appointment RCT/buildup/crown the most profitable procedure in dentistry? Perhaps. And Kevin has tips on how to get there! Some links from the show:

I want to set the stage for today's throwback episode. It's May of 2020. Most dental offices are still closed down due to the Coronavirus pandemic. Many offices have been seeing emergency patients and were just waiting for the go ahead to open back up. What have we learned? What should we expect? 20/20 hindsight from September 2023 makes this episode a little dated. But it's a good reminder of what we didn't know. I hope you enjoy the time capsule. Original show notes: "Jason and Alan feature "what have we learned" from coronavirus and "what have we changed" due to it! We asked the amazing Dental Hacks Nation to tell us how the last few months has affected them and we got a lot of great answers. Dentistry is different now than it was a few months ago and from the sounds of things...it may even be better! (please note...some bad swears were used in this episode)."

Alan is joined by Dr. Ashleigh Robinson to talk about her unconventional career choice! A couple years ago Ashleigh started a "house call" dentistry business and has never looked back! Ashleigh's calling to dentistry was originally hoping to address "access." There are a lot of people in need of dental care that cannot necessarily get to a dental office and our profession isn't really set up to address it. Ashleigh has created a model to reach these folks and she's an evangelist about it! In fact, she's even got her own podcast where she talks all about her model and how dentists can make this a part of their work if they want to!

Zach and Kevin are again joined by Alan Mead and this time they turn their focus on the dreaded "noncarious cervical lesion." What causes them? Who gets them? Should we treat them? Why and how? Al leads off with some interesting Very Dental podcast stats and then the boys dig in to their knowledge (and lack of knowledge) of the noncarious cervical lesion. We dig in to toothbrush abrasion, acid erosion, airway, sleep apnea and even occlusion! Do we have answers? Kind of. The word of the day is "multifactorial!"

Al tells a story of lawn mower tragedy, shame and redemption and what he learned from it.

Alan was joined by his friends and OG Brain Trust members Dr. Tammy Bailey, Dr. Dawn Kulongowski and Dr. Frank Clayton to tell a story. The story, as it turns out, is about the things Al learned by reviewing 1100+ episodes (and 9+ years) of podcasts! Some of the lessons involved podcasting in general, but most of the lessons are incredibly profound and applicable to dentistry and life! You guys are going to love this episode and the conversation we have! Some of the lessons Al learned:

Al riffs on a topic that he's thought about often in reference to dentistry: confirmation bias. "Confirmation bias is the tendency of people’s minds to seek out information that supports the views they already hold. It also leads people to interpret evidence in ways that support their pre-existing beliefs, expectations, or hypotheses." Confirmation bias can be seen in numerous ways in our life, our politics and all over the way we practice dentistry. It's imperative that we understand how it works in dentistry and how it affects us as clinicians. Also...if your car windows are completely tinted you're 100% for sure a douchebag.

Dentistry is a business. No matter how much I want to separate myself from that, it just is. Two people whose business acumen I respect a LOT also happen to be dental podcasters. Today I'm joined by Dr. Mark Costes of the Dental Success Institute and the Dentalpreneur Podcast and Dr. Paul Etchison, author of "Dental Practice Hero" and creator of the Dental Practice Heroes Podcast. These guys understand business in a way that most do not. But what I like about them is how freely they give away their knowledge. I brought them together to talk about the state of DSOs in dentistry. Even in the short time that DSOs have been a common topic (which I figure is less than 10 years) the concept has continued to evolve as well as consolidate the dental practice market. Mark and Paul have thoughts...and you get to hear them all in a wide ranging conversation:
Mark and Paul use quite a few terms that you might not be 100% familiar with. I had heard them kicked around, but before the conversation starts, I list a couple definitions that you might find helpful:

Dr. Jen Aloff is a family practice physician and also happens to be Al's sister in law. Jen has been practicing family practice medicine in Midland, MI for 25 years or so...a similar amount of time that Al has been in his general dental practice. Their wide ranging conversation does a bit of comparing and contrasting of the two professions over the last quarter century.

The old model of practice sales went something like this. A doctor decides he wants to sell his practice. Someone helps him determine a sale price and it usually ends up somewhere between 60-80% of collections depending on your geographic area and the type of practice. Chip Fichtner of Large Practice Sales joins me to talk about this interesting development. Chip explains the developments in the buying and selling of these practices and how younger dentists have new and interesting options to grow their existing large practices!

There was once a time where we started a podcast. A podcast by dentists, for dentists. And in the very first episode we were OBSESSED with Botox. That's right, I'm throwing back to the very first episode of the Dental Hacks podcast.

When did everything change? Was it COVID? Was it the Super Bowl after VoD 2020? Or was it all after Kobe tragically died in a helicopter crash? The guys have returning guest (and Zach's neighbor) Dr. Meylinda Meredith of the UMKC School of Dentistry to talk about relatively recent changes in dental education. What's different after COVID? Is it better? Is it worse?

This throwback episode reaches all the way back to 2019 where the Dental Hacks talked with Dr. Steve Ratcliff at Spear Education! Steve was an early team member of Spear Education (all the way back in 2009 when it was the "Scottsdale Center") and helped create the way study clubs worked and the online offerings at Spear Education. Steve gave us a pretty intimate look into his past and his evolution as a clinician and educator. We think you'll walk away with a lot from our talk with Dr. Ratcliff.

Al has a really short attention span. The internet and social media have made it even worse. Online CE came on REALLY strong in the COVID era and Al basically ignored it...until now. Dr. Dennis Hartlieb's "Dental Online Training" makes excellent accredited hands-on CE for people that want the goods stuff without having to travel. Even better, it works fine for people like Al with a short attentions span or those that like to take their time/rewatch, etc. It's the perfect balance of "in person" and "online" CE.

Dr. Richard Low joined Alan at Voices of Dentistry and the meeting was closing down. Richard was into dental podcasts early. He helped the one and only Dr. Howard Farran create one of the biggest dental podcast phenomena back in the mid 'oughts and then created the gigantic "Shared Practices Podcast" which has changed countless young dentists' lives! They talk about why it's OK to give your best stuff away for free on podcasts (spoiler: it's because it's REALLY hard to implement stuff without help). Some of the highlights:
