He explains why rotated 106 and 206 teeth in brachycephalic patients can make palatal root access especially challenging—and why adequate bone removal, controlled elevation, and patience are critical for reducing root fractures. Dr. Beckman also discusses whether attached gingiva must cover the distal root of the maxillary fourth premolar after M1 extraction, his perspective on Restorix versus PerioVive, and how extraction-site bleeding influences when and where he places PerioVive.

Bango Plc. CEO Paul Larbey joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss the company's strong first-half results, highlighting continued momentum in its rapidly growing subscriptions business and reaffirming that trading remains in line with full-year market expectations. Larbey said growth in Bango's subscriptions segment continued through the first six months of 2026 and has carried into the second half of the year, supported by increasing adoption of the company's Digital Vending Machine (DVM) platform. The platform enables telecom operators and other businesses to package and sell multiple subscription services—including streaming, entertainment and digital content offerings—through a single bundled customer experience. The company secured eight new DVM customers during the first half of the year, with six already signed under contract. Larbey noted that customer demand remains strong, supported by a healthy sales pipeline despite ongoing macroeconomic uncertainty. Bango also continues to execute a strategic restructuring of its lower-margin payments business. The company is streamlining certain payment routes, a process that is running ahead of schedule and is expected to be completed before year-end. While the rationalization may reduce reported revenue by a low single-digit percentage, management expects little impact on profitability and believes it will improve the overall quality and margin profile of the business. For the six months ended June 30, Bango reported revenue of $25.9 million, a 3% increase from the same period last year. The growth was driven primarily by the subscriptions division, where revenue climbed 13% to $12.3 million. Payments revenue declined 5% to $13.6 million as the company continued its planned restructuring of the lower quality revenue routes. Profitability improved significantly across the business. Adjusted EBITDA increased 34% year-over-year to $9 million, with the subscriptions segment playing a leading role. EBITDA from subscriptions more than tripled to $3.2 million, underscoring the growing scalability and operating leverage of the platform. One of the most notable achievements during the period was the company's turnaround in cash generation. Cash EBITDA improved from a loss of $0.7 million in the prior-year period to a positive $3.7 million, surpassing the total cash EBITDA generated during all of 2025 in just the first six months of 2026. Recurring revenue metrics also continued to strengthen. Annual recurring revenue (ARR), which measures the annualized value of contracted subscription income, rose 31% to $20.4 million. Net revenue retention improved to 119% from 108%, indicating that existing customers are spending more over time and expanding their use of Bango's platform. #proactiveinvestors #bangoplc #aim #bgo #otcqx #bgopf #DigitalVendingMachine #Subscriptions #Telecom #StreamingServices #SaaS #RecurringRevenue #ARR #Fintech #DigitalCommerce #TechnologyStocks #GrowthStocks #BusinessTechnology #SteveDarling

Learn more and enroll here: https://ivdi.org/extract -- Host: Dr. Brett Beckman, DVM, FAVD, DAVDC, DAAPM -- In this episode, Dr. Brett Beckman tackles a question veterinarians hear all the time: "My pet is eating normally, so how could they be in dental pain?" Dr. Beckman explains why significant oral pain can exist without the obvious signs owners expect to see. Pets living with chronic dental disease may continue eating, sleeping, and interacting normally, making discomfort difficult to recognize until after treatment. Often, the most compelling evidence comes at the recheck, when owners report behaviors they haven't seen in years—playing with toys again, becoming more active, eating better, or simply acting younger. He also discusses how veterinarians can communicate dental pain more effectively when owners are hesitant about treatment and why client education, testimonials, and reviews can help reinforce the value of veterinary dental care.

What happens when you've built the career you thought you wanted… and realize you might be ready for something completely different?Dr. Jen Cole spent more than 25 years in veterinary medicine, built two veterinary practices with her husband, raised three children, and eventually made the decision to step away from hospital life.But she wasn't done with veterinary medicine.Today, Jen is the author of the Rooster and Squid children's book series, using storytelling to teach kids about animals, veterinary medicine, and how they can become better advocates for their own pets.In this episode, we talk about knowing when it's time to move on, separating who you are from what you do, building a career alongside a family, and giving yourself permission to figure out what comes next.We also get into some of the harder lessons Jen learned during 25+ years in practice: firing clients, letting go of team members who are hurting your culture, realizing that nobody is irreplaceable (including the owners), and learning that your hospital can continue to thrive without you.Jen shares what retirement actually felt like after decades of being a veterinarian and practice owner, why she gave herself six months before saying yes to anything new, and how that space eventually led her to an entirely new creative career.Then we dive into Rooster and Squid: why Jen believes kids can be some of the best advocates for their pets, how she learned to write and publish children's books, what she thinks about AI and human creativity, and what she's building next.Most importantly, this conversation is a reminder that there isn't just one way to have a career in veterinary medicine. You can practice, own, lead, work part-time, raise a family, move into industry, create something completely new, or reinvent your career altogether.Your career can change. Your impact doesn't have to.In this episode • Knowing when it's time to step away from clinical practice • Separating your identity from being a veterinarian • Why Jen gave herself six months after retirement before deciding what came next • Building veterinary practices while raising a family • Being physically present versus actually being present with the people you love • Why it's okay to fire clients • Letting go of people who are negatively affecting your hospital culture • Why “nobody is irreplaceable” can actually be a healthy leadership lesson • The many different ways to build a career in veterinary medicine • Turning 25+ years of veterinary experience into children's stories • Why kids can be powerful advocates for their pets • Writing, illustrating, and publishing the Rooster and Squid series • AI, authorship, and the value of human creativity • Jen's upcoming search-and-rescue series inspired by veterinary emergency response workConnect with Dr. Jen ColeInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/roosterandsquid/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61553831672190 LinkedIn (Jen Cole, DVM): https://www.linkedin.com/in/jen-cole-dvm-208b642a1/Pinterest: https://www.pinterest.com/roosterandsquid/ Threads: https://www.threads.com/@roosterandsquid​YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@RoosterandSquidLucid Books (Dr. Cole's Publisher)Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lucid_books/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/lucidbookspublishing/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/lucid-booksPinterest: https://www.pinterest.com/lucidbookspub/X: https://x.com/Lucid_BooksChoose People Love Pets is the veterinary culture podcast exploring leadership, workplace culture, career possibilities, and the people working to build a brighter future for veterinary medicine.People.

Send Audrey a Text to get your question answered on the showHere is the question I get asked about EPM four times a week: does he need another round?And here is the question almost nobody asks: what is actually limiting this horse right now, and which part of his recovery has never been addressed?Those two questions send you down two completely different years. One is a loop. The other is a plan.In this episode, Audrey McLaughlin, Functional Equine Nutritionist, takes apart the assumptions that keep horses stuck in the medication cycle after EPM, and lays out what an organized recovery actually looks like on top of appropriate veterinary treatment.In this episode:Why a positive blood test means exposure, not active disease, and the three legs an EPM diagnosis actually stands onWhat to ask your vet for, and why writing down the neurologic grade today pays off two years from nowImprovement versus complete recovery, and what the ten to twenty percent relapse figure really tells you in both directionsThe difference between a horse who declined and a horse who never fully came back, and why they need opposite responsesWhat is usually left after treatment: residual deficit, lost conditioning, compensatory patterns, nutritional gaps, and proprioceptive confidenceThe honest vitamin E conversation. Test it, do not guess it, and why it is correcting a nutritional status rather than treating the diseaseThe six step recovery order of operations applied to a neurologic horse, with minerals doing the work of nerve conduction and muscle contractionWhat the Minerals and Metals Mane Test can and cannot tell you about an EPM horseWhy you do not rebuild a neurologic horse out of a bucketThis episode picks up after veterinary diagnosis and treatment.

In this episode, Dr. Brett Beckman answers practical questions about oronasal fistulas following maxillary canine extraction, dentin bonding after dentoplasty, and extracting mandibular first molars with divergent roots in brachycephalic dogs. Dr. Beckman explains how dehiscence and surgical technique can contribute to chronic oronasal fistula formation and why prevention starts with proper extraction and closure technique. He also discusses why attempting to repair an established fistula without advanced surgical training can make the defect larger and more difficult to manage. The discussion also covers bonding exposed dentin after dentoplasty, including the use of Bond 1 SF, proper surface preparation, light curing, and why fluoride polishing paste should be avoided when bonding is planned. Finally, Dr. Beckman walks through his approach to teeth 310 and 410 when the caudal root angles toward the mandibular ramus, explaining why proper sectioning allows each root to be mobilized and extracted individually.

Send Audrey a Text to get your question answered on the showYour horse finished Lyme treatment and still is not right. Technically cleared by the vet, but you know something is still obviously not right. Your vet did her job. The medication is finished. And your horse still is not the horse you had last spring.Flat topline. No stamina. Sticky behind. Grouchy about the girth. Nothing you can point to on a vet exam, and nothing that has improved since the last dose went in.Here is the piece that gets missed: treatment addresses the disease process. Recovery rebuilds the horse. Those are two separate jobs, and the second one has an order.In this episode, Audrey McLaughlin, Functional Equine Nutritionist, lays out the six step recovery order of operations she uses with horses after veterinary Lyme treatment, and explains why the sequence matters as much as the inputs. Two plus three times four gives you twenty or fourteen depending entirely on what order you work it in. Same math applies to your feed room.You will learn:Why treatment and recovery are two different phases, and what is actually sitting in front of you after the medication is doneThe six step order of operations: bind and remove toxins, protect and optimize the liver, reduce oxidative stress, lower inflammation, support normal acid base balance, restore fluid and mineral balanceWhy step one is almost always subtraction, not a binder purchaseHow to support the liver through the diet instead of an aggressive detoxThe hidden oxidative load sitting in processed oils and high concentrate dietsWhat is actually true about acidity and alkalinity in horses, and what no supplement can doWhy sodium is the most underfed nutrient in the American horse industry, and why a salt block is not a feeding programWhy mineral relationships matter more than mineral amountsThe honest amino acid conversation: they will not cover a bad diet, and a topline is not rebuilt out of a bucketWhy targeted immune support belongs last, not firstThis episode picks up after veterinary assessment, diagnosis, and treatment. It is supportive nutrition education, not a replacement for veterinary care.Mentioned in this episode: Minerals and Metals Mane Test (MMMT), nutrition consultations, the anti-inflammatory forage diet.

Are We Killing Our Pets with Dr. Judy Morgan | Improvement Warrior Podcast Episode 91Are We Killing Our Pets? That's the question Jason Yun poses in this powerful conversation with holistic veterinarian Dr. Judy Morgan on the Improvement Warrior Podcast. Conventional care—ultra-processed kibble, annual vaccines, chemical flea/tick preventatives, and corporate-driven protocols—has coincided with exploding rates of cancer, kidney disease, allergies, and shortened lifespans in dogs and cats. Dr. Morgan, with 40+ years of integrative experience, pulls no punches on what's going wrong and how pet parents can take back control with species-appropriate food, smarter vaccination strategies, and natural therapies.Welcome back to the Improvement Warrior Podcast. If you're new, this is the show where we go beyond calories and cardio and talk about the things that actually move the needle: light, mitochondria, circadian biology, and now… the animals who share our homes.I recently lost my own dog. That experience, combined with everything I've learned about how environment and inputs shape biology, made me ask a hard question: Are we accidentally killing our pets with the very care we think is protecting them?Today I'm sitting down with Dr. Judy Morgan, DVM, CVA, CVCP, CVFT—integrative veterinarian, bestselling author, and one of the loudest, most consistent voices for naturally healthy pets. She retired from clinical practice after 36 years and now educates millions of pet parents on real food, reduced chemical load, smarter vaccination, and traditional Chinese veterinary medicine.This conversation is going to challenge a lot of what you've been told at the vet's office. Grab your notebook. Let's go.Detailed Timestamp with Show Highlights0:00 – 7:45 — Jason's cold open, personal story of losing his dog, why this episode matters, and the core thesis: light + environment + inputs apply to pets too.7:45 – 14:20 — Dr. Judy's background: 40+ years in practice, shift from conventional to integrative, why she left clinical work to educate at scale.14:20 – 22:10 — The rise in chronic disease: cancer, kidney failure, allergies, IBD. What's changed in the last 20–30 years?22:10 – 31:40 — Ultra-processed kibble and “all life stages” foods. Why feeding trials and marketing claims don't equal health. Fresh, raw, and homemade options.31:40 – 41:15 — Vaccines: core vs. non-core, titer testing vs. automatic boosters, over-vaccination risks, and informed consent.41:15 – 49:50 — Flea, tick, and heartworm chemicals (especially isoxazolines). Detox realities and safer alternatives.49:50 – 57:30 — Antibiotics, steroids, and “quick-fix” drugs. Gut microbiome damage and why treating the patient (not just the symptom) matters.57:30 – 64:00 — Practical first steps every pet parent can take this week: food upgrades, asking for titers, reducing chemical load, light and outdoor time.64:00 – 67:50 — Where to find Dr. Judy, her books, courses, store, and closing thoughts on becoming your pet's advocate.Resource SectionDr. Judy Morgan's main site & store: https://drjudymorgan.com / https://naturallyhealthypets.comDr. Judy U (courses): https://www.drjudyu.comNaturally Healthy Pets Podcast (Dr. Judy's show)REMEMBER ALL BOOKS ON THE WEBSITE ARE 50% OFF WITH CODE YUN50: Books by Dr. Judy Morgan (available on her site and Amazon): Raising Naturally Healthy Pets, From Needles to Natural, and othersTruth About Pet Food (Susan Thixton): https://truthaboutpetfood.comBLOG POST/SHOW NOTES from episode: ImprovementWarriorFitness.com/healthypetsImprovement Warrior Newsletter: improvementwarriorfitness.com/nlSupport the show on Patreon: improvementwarriorfitness.com/patreonSupport the show on Substack: http://improvementwarrior.substack.comBuy Jason a cup of raw milk: improvementwarriorfitness.com/kofi
