During the latest episode of the AGD Podcast Series, host George Schmidt, DMD, FAGD, talks with David Galler, DMD, one of the top providers of aligner treatments in the U.S. During the episode, Galler describes his early work with aligner therapies to some of the new tools that make them more accessible. He also discusses how incorporating aligners into a patient's care addresses cosmetics, periodontal, and occlusion care. Still, dentists must know how to manage these treatments and keep up with current aligner learning. He also touches on the problem of burnout, asking other dentists questions to help them identify factors impacting their happiness and how to find outlets for things that are causing them stress. As a featured speaker at numerous study clubs, webinars, and national and regional events, Galler has created a strong following of practitioners wanting to learn more about treating patients with his aligner therapy. He is credited with bringing several key innovations to the forefront of the clear aligner field, including the GOST (Galler Ostreicher Spacing Technique), Ortho Munchies, and the GLR 4.0 — Galler's proprietary algorithm. He also runs various HAPPINESS seminars to improve dentists' quality of life. When not treating patients, lecturing, or innovating, Galler enjoys performing stand-up comedy and currently has a residency in Las Vegas, where he performs several times a month.

Join Practice Booster's Dr. Greg Grobmyer as he talks with Dr. Dominique Fufidio about the use of Artificial Intelligence in dental insurance claims adjudication, document scanning, image interpretation, and more! Dr. Dominique Fufidio, DDS, FAGD, is the founder and main coach at Fufidio Consulting Group (FCG). Dr. Fufidio has pioneered a unique coaching experience focused on teaching an understanding of the dental insurance claims review process and the rationale behind the decisions on the EOB. Dr. Fufidio has established herself as a successful, fee-for-service, former private practice owner, dental artificial intelligence co-creator, and top-performing dental claim reviewer and Utilization Review Director for the largest Utilization Review Agent in the United States. Now, she is on a mission to bring clinical alignment to dental providers and the dental insurance payor market, helping dental offices get paid for what they do! Each insurance carrier is different and each reviews claims differently. Each payor selects claims to review differently and has clinical criteria that are different from one another, albeit largely similar. The concern across the industry is that the clinical documentation submitted needs to substantiate a “proof of loss” and true “medical necessity” for the treatment rendered. It is crucial to understand that the decision from the insurance payor is a benefit determination, not a treatment recommendation. The treatment recommendation is clinically yours, and yours alone. You must make the best recommendations for your patients and submit your diagnostic evidence in support.
