Burnout is hitting hard. If you're a dental assistant feeling exhausted, underappreciated, or just ready to walk away—this episode is for you. Burnout in dentistry is more common than we think, and the worst part? Too many assistants are keeping it all inside. In this episode, Kevin Henry talks with Lynne Leggett from Victory Dental Management about the real struggles facing dental assistants. From feeling invisible to handling unfair treatment, Lynne shares what burnout really looks like—and how to start healing. We break down the 3 signs of burnout: emotional exhaustion, disconnection from your team, and feeling like your work doesn't matter. These signs are showing up every day in dental offices across the country. Burnout doesn't just affect the dental assistant—it affects patient care, teamwork, and the entire dentistry practice. If you're working in dental and wondering if you're the only one feeling this way, you're not. You're surrounded by others who care about your well-being. Lynne shares practical tools, including a simple "1–5" check-in method during huddles, to open up the conversation about burnout. If you're feeling low, it's okay to say it. It's okay to ask for support. Talking is better than holding it in. Remember: You're not weak. You're not failing. Burnout in dental offices is real—and it's fixable. If you love working with teeth but feel like you're at your limit, don't wait. Speak up. You matter.

On this episode of Blake Street Banter, we're diving deep with an all-star lineup: Christian Saez from DNVR, Aaron McBride and Noah Spirek of Blake Street Banter, and Kevin Henry from Just Baseball. We kick things off by asking the big question on every Rockies fan's mind: What does payroll reduction look like for Colorado? Does it matter? We'll discuss the implications and explore what it means for the future of the franchise. The Gold Glove conversation heats up as we predict who's in, who gets snubbed, and dissect RyMac, Tovar, and Doyle's defensive feats. Could Tovar's standout defensive numbers make him the Rockies' best shot? Then, we'll debate which current player holds the most potential for shaping the team's future, and make some bold calls on which top Rockies prospect—Dollander or Veen—will have the biggest impact. Aaron will challenge us with stats on a few minor leaguers, and we'll put our knowledge to the test as a team. Finally, if we could steal any MLB player (non-WS bound) for the Rockies, who would it be? Tune in as we break down the path to competitiveness, predict Colorado's future stars, and strategize for the Rockies' next era. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/blake-street-banter/support

The Dental Lifeline Network is celebrating its 50th anniversary and has served over 170,000 patients, providing over $550 million worth of donated dental treatment.

The organization also emphasizes the importance of involving the entire dental team in volunteerism, as it boosts employee morale and helps with talent recruitment and retention. They have seen a high level of volunteerism and compassion from dentists and dental professionals.
