The Very Dental Podcast Network Very Dental Classics: Check Your Ego at the Operatory Door with Dr. Gregg Kinzer
In this "Classics" episode, Alan sits down with Dr. Gregg Kinzer at the 2022 Spear Summit to discuss the long-awaited return of in-person dental education. Gregg shares his excitement about the palpable energy of live meetings and gives us a behind-the-scenes look at how he curates the world-class speaker lineup for the Summit. The conversation dives deep into the philosophy of "Spear Interactive," a residency-style educational model designed to help clinicians master treatment planning through scientific skepticism and literature evaluation. From playful "text-thread-style" debates on stage with colleagues to the therapeutic benefits of deleting an angry email before hitting send, Gregg and Alan explore the importance of community, mentorship, and leaving your ego at the door to become the best version of a clinician possible.
