Very Clinical: We've Changed Our Minds About Clinical Stuff

The Very Dental Podcast Network

If you've been practicing dentistry for awhile, you've probably changed your mind about some stuff. Today's episode starts an interesting series for Zach and Kevin where they talk to some experienced dentists about what things they've changed their mind about over the years. Today's episode features a discussion with Al about some things we've changed our minds about clinically!

• Al has changed his mind about where to place margins. Now, he aims for equigingival margins vs. below the gingiva.
• Kevin changed his mind about specialty procedures for general dentists (implants, ortho, sleep, etc.)
• Kevin changed his mind about how soon to get a CBCT (seeing things in 3D).
• Zach changed his mind about sectioning teeth (he does it much sooner). "Atraumatic extractions start with the handpiece."
• Al has changed his mind about how soon he goes to an indirect restoration (go to indirect sooner).
• Zach changed his mind about digital dentistry.
