Have you ever wondered why your preps look rough and bumpy? Have you tried every polishing diamond, rubbers and stones and it still doesn't make a difference? I've got good news, the solution may be found in this episode💡. In this episode, I'll break down the critical role of handpiece selection in aesthetic dentistry—especially when it comes to precision veneer preparations. While most of us learned on air turbine handpieces at university, electric handpieces offer a game-changing level of control, accuracy, and reliability. This episode explains why electric handpieces are essential for high-end aesthetic outcomes—and how switching will transform your preps 🥳. 📌 Resources & Links: Join the waitlist for the Mastering Porcelain Veneers program and get access to early enrolment.

I'll be honest - many years ago there was a time where sweat drops 😰 use to bead up on my forehead when I spoke to patients about aesthetic dentistry.

I will introduce the power of profiling your ideal aesthetic dentistry patient 🚀. 🔍 What we’re covering in this episode: Why we need to get a clear picture of our ideal patient How this streamlines your communication and takes all the stress away from you and the patient How to avoid a big mistake that most people make when doing this How this will attract ideal patients and repel non-ideal patients How the team can use this to support you This episode will help you meet the patient where they are - instead of where you want them to be - when communication becomes easier and flows naturally. 📌 Resources & Links: Join the waitlist for the Mastering Porcelain Veneers program and get access to early enrolment.

There has been a big debate raging in dentistry circles around the diminishing margins in owning a dental practice and whether associate dentists should take a cut in commissions to compensate the increasing costs of running a practice. This could have large ramifications for any clinician who has an interest in Aesthetic Dentistry because to do it well requires a huge amount of skill, time and effort. 🔍 What we’re covering in this episode: The practice owners perspective The associate dentist perspective The origins of this problem The influence of corporates and health funds The numbers What we can do as individual clinicians to increase our worth Dentistry is a lonely job at times and it's easy to feel alone. If you're feeling that something isn't quite right with commission rates, then this episode is for you. 📌 Resources & Links: Join the waitlist for the Mastering Porcelain Veneers program and get access to early enrolment.
