Dental Podcasts - The Dr. Phil Klein Dental Podcast

The reality is, many patients simply can’t afford traditional, lab-fabricated veneers. And without a more affordable option, they do nothing and continue living with a smile they’re not happy with. But now, there’s a solution. With a product called VeneerNow, dentists can offer a beautiful, life-changing makeover that’s easy to do, completed in a single visit, and well within reach for most patients. Dr. Lundon Albrecht shares with us how this easy-to-use veneer system has been a game-changer for his practice.

So the question is, if you're willing to try some new dental products (different from what you've been using for years) how do you know which one is best for you, your team members and your patients? To help us put this all in perspective, we'll be talking with Emily Boge. Emily is a RDH, speaker and writer with a dual Doctorate in Education and Organizational Leadership. She's a champion for innovation, influencing manufacturers to prioritize practitioner input into product development.

Today we'll be discussing ways to empower dental hygienists and dental assistants to deliver exceptional care, going beyond what is typically expected of them, and reaching new heights in clinical outcomes and career satisfaction. Our guest is Lancette VanGuilder, a trailblazer and leader in dentistry for more than two decades. She practices as a complete health dental hygienist with 28 years of experience. She is the founder of a nonprofit mobile dental hygiene business and is recognized as an international CE speaker and serves as the current Vice-President of the American Dental Hygienists' Association.

Even though millions of patients have successfully been treated with dental implants some of us are still not sure if it's okay to probe an implant and what the proper protocol is for implant maintenance. To help us answer some of these questions is our guest Jessica Woods. Jessica is a RDH with a masters in public health. She has spent the last decade as a clinician, speaker, author, mentor, and public health advocate. She is also a past President of the Nevada Dental Hygienists’ Association (NDHA), recognized as an Oral Health Champion, and the recipient of the Nevada Dental Hygienist of the Year Award for advocacy efforts in expanding opportunities for dental hygienists.
