Tune in for today's industry updates.

There's a lingering misconception that dental technology is expensive. That may have been true in the past, but that excuse doesn't hold up in dentistry today. Not only is the cost of technology going down, but we're now at a point where you can't afford NOT to have it in your practice. Dental technology makes treatment more comfortable and convenient for everyone involved, including patients and providers, and the same is true of practice software and other modern tech tools. The right tools will even lower costs for patients and increase accessibility to care while opening up new opportunities for dental practice owners. In this episode of The Patient First Podcast, I explain why you're out of excuses if your practice is behind on dental technology. I also explain how a more interconnected and digitized relationship between patient and practice is actually a boon for dentists who want to “leave work at work.” I'm Dr. Bryan Laskin, an author, entrepreneur and dentist who's working hard to help other dentists leverage the benefits of our increasingly tech-forward age to elevate the standard of care.

This is Stephen Schmidt from the Gazette digital news desk and I'm here with your update for Wednesday, February 15.We'll get a break from precipitation on Wednesday, but it will be windy and cold. According to the National Weather Service it will be mostly cloudy in the Cedar Rapids area with the temperature dropping to around 30 degrees by 5 p.m. Wind of 10 to 20 mph could gust as high as 30 mph. On Wednesday night it will be cloudy, with a low near 23 degrees. Enjoy the view of grass, because a bunch of snow is predicted to come overnight into Thursday.Nearly 55 years after a private firm built the Mayflower Apartment Community overlooking the Iowa River, marketed to students as a “luxury” dorm — and 40 years after the University of Iowa bought the eight-story building outright — the UI is planning to sell its Mayflower Residence Hall.With those sale proceeds — plus any borrowing they need to do — UI administrators want to build a $40 to $60 million residence hall for returning students. Currently, most UI residence hall space is prioritized for freshmen.The master plan indicates a new returning-student hall could hold between 250 and 400 beds — making it similar in size to Stanley Hall, housing 354 students, or Daum Hall, housing 344 students. The plan aims to build the new hall on UI-owned land also on the east side of campus.Mayflower Hall was built in the 1960s in place of what started in 1851 as the Walter Terrell Mansion, home of the entrepreneur who built a dam and grain mill on the Iowa River. The mansion in the 1930s or 1940s became the Mayflower Inn, featuring the Mayflower Night Club, before it was demolished and replaced with apartments.Cuts that Kirkwood Community College announced Monday resulted in 28 layoffs, some occurring across programs the campus is eliminating or changing because of low enrollment.Both full-time and part-time employees were laid off in two programs the college is closing: Dental Technology and the Energy Production and Distribution program.Kirkwood announced plans Monday to close those for-credit programs following an internal review of its operations, which officials said wasn't documented in a report. By laying off 28 the employees and closing the associated programs, Kirkwood anticipates saving about $1.5 million a year.Iowa Homeland Security will pay more than $600,000 to replace firefighting clothing and equipment damaged in a Dec. 8, 2022, explosion and fire in Marengo after the company whose plant exploded refused to pay.The decision will allow more than 20 agencies that responded to the blaze to replace gear ruined by diesel fuel and a mysterious solvent stored at the plant operated by C6-Zero. Without the cash infusion from the state, some departments would be fighting fires with older, uncertified gear, said Josh Humphrey, Iowa County Emergency Management Agency coordinator.The explosion injured a dozen employees, caused an evacuation of nearby houses and polluted soil and water because of chemicals stored at the site, where C6-Zero was attempting to dissolve used shingles into oil, sand and fiberglass.

This is Stephen Schmidt from the Gazette digital news desk and I'm here with your update for Tuesday, February 14.Tuesday's weather will still feel like Spring, but it will be the cold version of spring where it's windy and rainy. Judging from the probability charts from the National Weather Service it looks like it could rain all day in the Cedar Rapids area, with the highest likelihood from noon to 6 p.m. The high will be near 48 degrees with a strong breeze. On Tuesday night it will be cloudy, with a low of around 36 degrees. The wind will pick up speed as well, gusting as high as 40 mph.A month after announcing plans to relocate and cut services in Iowa City, Kirkwood Community College announced plans Monday to close two programs, downsize a third and eliminate faculty and staff positions to “bring future budgets in line with expected revenue.”Specifically, the Cedar Rapids-based Kirkwood is closing its Dental Technology program and its Energy Production and Distribution Technologies program “due to low enrollment.” The closures will become official once all current students complete their studies in those areas, Kirkwood officials said.The college also is changing its truck driving program within its Continuing Education and Training Services division, again, due to low enrollment numbers over the last five years. Those changes will end the “behind-the-wheel” portion of the school's commercial driver's license program after the current class finishes.The decision followed a long-term viability analysis and is being made in light of the “significant and ongoing cost of maintaining up-to-date technology and equipment.”Kirkwood didn't immediately release the internal review of its operations that compelled the closure of its for-credit programs or the long-term viability analysis of its truck driving program. It didn't share current enrollments of the affected programs. Nor did it immediately provide specific numbers of faculty and staff positions cut. Iowa's state transportation commission would be required to prioritize making Highway 30 four lanes under a bill advanced by a panel of state lawmakers.A Senate transportation subcommittee Monday advanced to full committee Senate File 111 by Sen. Chris Cournoyer, R-Le Claire, which would require the state to make the entire length of Highway 30 four lanes — including a 40-mile stretch between DeWitt and Lisbon and between Carroll and Ogden in Western Iowa.Economic developers, business leaders and government officials in Clinton County have advocated for the better part of two decades for the state to modify and expand Highway 30 between DeWitt and Lisbon to four lanes.Representatives with Grow Clinton County, which works to promote business growth in the region, told lawmakers such a project would spur rural business development, foster population growth, improve roadway safety, lessen congestion on Interstate 80 and match the majority of Highway 30's cross-state footprint.Cedar Rapids nonprofit Matthew 25 was chosen as one of five organizations to receive part of a $150,000 campaign to fight hunger across the country.As a front line organization fighting food insecurity locally, Matthew 25 was named a 2023 recipient of $15,000 from the Simply Organic Giving Fund. The fund is a charitable arm of Simply Organic, a leader in organic herbs and spices under the Norway, Iowa-based Frontier Co-Op family of brands.In addition to

Dr. Parag Kachalia is one of the most influential people in dentistry. And as one of the Seattle Study Club's Top 10 Young Educators, he's using his influence to help other dentists achieve their best in their business. His only regret in his career is not joining the Study Club sooner. As dentists, we are responsible for the wellness of our patients, but it's also our job to run a successful business. And Dr. Kachalia knows that dentistry is about more than just the 32 teeth in the mouth. He's the rare kind of dentist who loves the business side of things. He minored in economics and explains how that education helps him more in his daily practice (and as a mentor) than any physiology course he took in college. Economics and dentistry weren't always the plan — Dr. Kachalia wanted to be an oncologist, but he's always been an economist at heart. His family ran their own business, and while he was inspired to take economics courses, not many other dental students are. In addition, many teachers aren't prepared to teach the type of economics we need to run a successful business in the 2020s. Dr. Kachalia discusses this disconnect between the university and the practice and how it inspired him to get involved with the Seattle Study Club. One of the biggest things he's doing with the Study Club is discussing new types of dental technology, specifically Artificial Intelligence (AI), and how to pick out what kind of tech you need in your practice. There are three criteria Dr. Kachalia uses before he invests in new equipment or technology, and he shares how we can apply his process to all business investments we make. It's important to look at how these new kinds of dental technology will work for your practice and how these tools will benefit you not only as a dentist but also as a business owner.

It has been one weird week. From my lab tech's conversation, to seeing Glidewell Dental Lab now selling CAD/CAM, to finishing up my Cerec Training with Patterson Dental. Dental Technology has definitely taken a new twist. Digital Dentistry continues to take market share from traditional dental labs, and I don't have an answer as to when it will stop, or more correctly, if it will stop. Traditional crown and bridge labs need to start looking for diversification to stay ahead of what is coming with digital dentistry.Support the show (http://www.mypracticemybusiness.com)
