The Very Dental Podcast Network OG Brain Trust (DHP215)
The OGs[/caption]
The Brain Trust has always been a huge part of the Dental Hacks podcast. We love to feature a round table of regular, "wet fingered' (ew) dentists talking about stuff that all dentists deal with. Episode 215 features three of our original panelists who have been featured over the years. We cover a lot of ground here, including:
- Are baseball analogies good for gauging where you are in your dental career?
- Would Rich recommend buying and merging a practice?
- How is Jeff screening kids and adults for airway? (note: it's probably not what you think!)
- How has coaching affected their careers?
- What technology has been worthwhile? For patient outcomes or simply marketing?
- Why are dentists training so much in high dollar procedures vs. the fundamentals?
- Are long haul truckers good patients? Is it truck o'clock?

Everyone knows that Zirc's Crystal HD mirrors are the best and brightest mouth mirrors in dentistry. That's just a given. But when I heard about their double sided Crystal HD mirrors I wondered, why would you want such a creature? Then I realized that half the time I'm retracting the cheek or tongue with my mirror and that incredibly reflective surface could be reflecting light back into my operative field! That's why Zirc created the Crystal HD double sided mirror! Those folks at Zirc never miss a trick do they?
