Episode 378: Dentists Are Solving the Gag Reflex Problem With This New Trick 17:47

7 днів тому17:47

17:47

Many patients struggle with gagging during dental procedures — and it’s stressful for both the dentist and the patient. In this episode, we meet someone who decided to fix that problem with a simple but powerful solution. Recorded live from IDS in Cologne, Germany, this episode features Rodney Schutt, founder of No Gag, a company tackling one of dentistry’s most annoying problems: the gag reflex. Rodney explains how the gag reflex creates issues with impressions, scans, and general dental comfort. He shares how No Gag developed a powder that, when placed on the tongue, stops the gag reflex in 10 seconds — lasting for at least an hour. It’s non-invasive, simple to use, and helps both dental teams and patients feel more at ease. 🤖 AI in Dentistry AI is rapidly becoming part of dental treatment planning. ➡️ AI is being used in scanning, radiographs, and diagnostics. ➡️ There’s growing concern that dental professionals might rely too heavily on AI instead of using their own judgment. ➡️ The episode compares it to students asking why they should learn math when they can use Siri — raising questions about long-term skills and decision-making in clinical care. Stay informed and involved with how AI integrates into dental practice — without replacing the human element.

Episode 377: What's FAIR PAY for a Dental Assistant in Your Area? 17:00

15 днів тому17:00

17:00

Dental assistant pay is one of the most talked-about issues in the industry right now, and for good reason. A surprising 47% of dental assistants feel they aren’t being compensated fairly, yet many don’t know what fair pay actually looks like in their area. That’s where today’s guest, Garrett Wilson, CEO of Pay Insights, comes in. His company is working to bring real data on dental assistant salary to the industry so that professionals can understand what they should be earning. In this episode, we take a deep dive into pay in dentistry and why compensation varies so much based on location. Many assume that working in a big city means higher wages, but some rural practices are actually paying more to compete for talent. Understanding these trends is key to making informed career decisions. If you’ve ever wondered whether your salary in dentistry is where it should be, this episode will give you the insights you need. Beyond location, we also discuss why dental assistant pay isn’t just about time served—it’s about showing your value, knowing how your practice is performing financially, and backing up your salary request with real data. Many assistants love their jobs, but without proper compensation, job satisfaction can only go so far. That’s why it’s critical to have open, data-driven conversations about dental assistant salary with employers. If you’re thinking about negotiating a raise, or just want to know where you stand in terms of pay in dentistry, don’t miss this episode. Garrett shares how his company is crowdsourcing salary in dentistry data to help assistants, hygienists, and office staff advocate for themselves. The best way to understand your worth is by comparing your dental assistant salary to what others in your area are earning.

Episode 376: Is Burnout Destroying Your Career as a Dental Assistant 18:16

21 день тому18:16

18:16

Burnout is hitting hard. If you're a dental assistant feeling exhausted, underappreciated, or just ready to walk away—this episode is for you. Burnout in dentistry is more common than we think, and the worst part? Too many assistants are keeping it all inside. In this episode, Kevin Henry talks with Lynne Leggett from Victory Dental Management about the real struggles facing dental assistants. From feeling invisible to handling unfair treatment, Lynne shares what burnout really looks like—and how to start healing. We break down the 3 signs of burnout: emotional exhaustion, disconnection from your team, and feeling like your work doesn’t matter. These signs are showing up every day in dental offices across the country. Burnout doesn't just affect the dental assistant—it affects patient care, teamwork, and the entire dentistry practice. If you're working in dental and wondering if you’re the only one feeling this way, you're not. You're surrounded by others who care about your well-being. Lynne shares practical tools, including a simple "1–5" check-in method during huddles, to open up the conversation about burnout. If you’re feeling low, it’s okay to say it. It’s okay to ask for support. Talking is better than holding it in. Remember: You’re not weak. You’re not failing. Burnout in dental offices is real—and it’s fixable. If you love working with teeth but feel like you're at your limit, don’t wait. Speak up. You matter.

We always hear how social media ruins our mental health—but what if it’s also the tool we’ve been overlooking to actually heal? Social media isn’t just noise—it can be a lifeline. When used with purpose, social media helps create spaces that are uplifting, safe, and community-driven. It plays a critical role in supporting mental health, especially when users intentionally seek content that nurtures well-being. To fully experience the benefits of social media, filter your feed, join groups that discuss mental health, and mute triggers that cause stress. Supporting mental health also means taking control—setting time limits, engaging with mental health advocates, and finding professional resources. Embracing social media mental health strategies allows you to shift your mindset, build positive habits, and stay connected. Whether it's daily check-ins, peer support, or curated content, social media mental health practices can empower your journey. Make the most of social media mental health by using platforms to support, not sabotage, your well-being. Social media can heal, connect, and inspire when used intentionally. Prioritize supporting mental health by building your digital environment. And remember—your mental health matters, on and offline.
