In this episode, Jackie Sanders and Andrew Johnston sit down with Jill Sirko, PhD, cofounder of KaiAvora Health, to discuss the challenge of translating research into information clinicians and patients can actually use. Jill shares her unconventional path from studying medieval literature and systems of power to working in health care, patient advocacy, and oral health research. She explains how her experience navigating a fragmented health-care system after the birth of her daughter ultimately changed the direction of her career and shaped her interest in making complex health information more accessible. The conversation explores why it can take years for research findings to make their way into clinical practice, the growing challenge of distinguishing credible science from misinformation, and the responsibility researchers and communicators have to make evidence understandable without oversimplifying it. Jill also discusses the work behind KaiAvora Health and its focus on helping people better understand the connections between oral and systemic health, particularly in women's health. For dental hygienists, the conversation highlights an important opportunity: helping patients recognize that oral health involves much more than their teeth and giving them evidence-based information that helps connect what happens in the mouth with the rest of the body.

On today's episode, Dr. Mark Costes is joined by Dr. Michael Dienberg and Bethany Dienberg for a Dental Success Network webinar on integrating frenectomies into the general dental practice. Dr. Dienberg shares how tongue and lip ties often go undiagnosed in dentistry, despite their connection to breastfeeding challenges, speech concerns, orthodontic relapse, airway issues, tension, migraines, sleep concerns, and oral dysfunction across patients of all ages. Together, Michael and Bethany explain the difference between frenectomies, frenotomies, and frenuloplasties, how CO2 laser releases compare with traditional techniques, and why coordinated care with lactation consultants, speech-language pathologists, myofunctional therapists, pediatric providers, and bodywork professionals can help create better outcomes. They also discuss practical implementation, including consult flow, post-op care, medical and dental billing considerations, referral networks, patient education, and how general dentists can begin identifying tongue and lip ties already present in their existing patient base.

On the morning of February 18, 2025, FDNY EMS units responded to a report of a barricaded suspect incident inside a Manhattan NYCHA apartment that rapidly escalated into a high-risk, multi-patient operation. BLS and ALS units responded to this active and evolving scene. As operations progressed, EMS units were moved from staging to inside the building, ultimately advancing to the upper floors in close proximity to the threat when multiple gunshots were fired without warning. In this episode of the FDNY Pro Podcast, host Captain Randy Li is joined by Captain Alexander Khalef, and the Rescue Paramedics Paul Yoon and Jose Parra, who responded to this incident and treated those on scene, including a downed officer and the suspect. For their courage, professionalism, and unwavering commitment to duty, they were recognized with the Tracy Allen Lee Medal at the 2026 FDNY Medal Day Ceremony in June.

Walking is something most of us do every day without thinking, but the way you move may reveal far more about your health than you realize. In this episode of The MOVEMENT Movement, Steven Sashen speaks with Courtney Conley, DC, Founder and CEO of Gait Happens, who explains how walking speed, sensory input, foot strength, mobility, and the big toe can affect balance, efficiency, pain, and healthy aging. Courtney also shares practical ways to improve walking, including gradually spending more time barefoot, choosing footwear that respects the foot's natural anatomy, strengthening the feet, and using simple cues to walk taller, faster, and softer. Key Takeaways:→ Walking speed is considered an important health indicator and may provide clues about future physical and neurological decline. → Brisk, intentional walking can be more efficient than the slow, guarded gait people often adopt when in pain.→ Walking taller, faster, and more softly can help reduce overstriding and promote a smoother gait. → Healthy walking depends on foot strength, mobility, balance, and the feet's ability to interact naturally with the ground. → Difficulty walking barefoot may reflect a deconditioned foot rather than proof that the foot permanently needs external support. Dr. Courtney Conley is a nationally bestselling author, an international educator, and a leading authority on foot and gait health. She is the founder of Gait Happens, a global education company that helps people restore foot function through science-backed training, professional education, and personalized care. With nearly 25 years of clinical experience, Dr. Conley has worked with professional athletes from organizations such as the Phoenix Suns, New York Yankees, Cleveland Browns, New York Giants, and San Francisco 49ers. She also serves as Head of Patient Care at Total Health Solutions and Total Health Performance in Lakewood, Colorado. Her book, Walk, became a USA Today and Amazon bestseller. Dr. Conley has appeared on The Peter Attia Drive, Diary of a CEO, CBS Mornings, and Fox & Friends, where she shares her belief that strength, mobility, and long-term health begin from the ground up.

Hey there Voices of the Bench community, this is Trish Jones with Ivoclar. If you've been curious about fast-firing zirconia to improve efficiency but aren't convinced it can deliver predictable, high-quality results, I'd encourage you to connect with us. Our new IPS Emax Zirconia offers multiple fast-fire protocols designed to help save you valuable production time while maintaining consistent results. Time is money in every lab. Don't wait. Reach out to your local Ivoclar rep today and discover how IPS Emax Zirconia can help streamline your workflow. As full-arch dentistry continues to grow, so do the demands on today's dental laboratories. That's why Knight Dental recently launched SimplyARCH Studio, a dedicated production environment built exclusively for full-arch restorations. To support this specialized workflow, Knight invested in an XTCERA milling system and carefully evaluated multiple CAM software solutions before choosing hyperDENT. The decision came down to exceptional milling quality, minimal hand finishing, and impressive production efficiency. But what truly set hyperDENT apart was the implementation process. From the very beginning, the team provided more than software training—they shared the knowledge and experience needed to build an optimized workflow for complex full-arch cases. With proven expertise in advanced milling strategies and laboratory production, hyperDENT helped ensure SimplyARCH Studio was designed for long-term success from day one.Matt Everatt joins Elvis and Barb for a fascinating conversation that takes a deep dive into his journey through the dental laboratory industry and the story behind his book, The Invisible Profession. From discovering dental technology at 16 and specializing in maxillofacial prosthetics and orthodontics to working in hospitals, developing early sleep-apnea appliances, and nearly leaving the profession altogether, Matt's career has taken some seriously interesting turns. Eventually, he helped co-found S4S, building a successful business around sleep-apnea appliances, occlusal splints, orthodontics, and more before eventually stepping away from ownership. From polishing hearing-aid earpieces to becoming the first female clinical dental technician to qualify in the UK, Caroline Kirkpatrick has taken a pretty incredible—and definitely unconventional—path through dental technology. Caroline joins Barb and Elvis to talk about how a broken denture repair sign outside a dental laboratory sparked her interest in the industry, her early years learning crown and bridge, orthodontics, and working in a dental hospital, and how her curiosity pushed her to learn every side of the profession. Eventually, that curiosity led Caroline to become one of the first four technicians accepted into the UK's pioneering clinical dental technology program in 2010. But Caroline's story doesn't stop at the bench. She built her own laboratory, taught dental technology, treated patients clinically, raised a family, and continued pushing herself into digital dentistry. She shares how she experimented with early digital workflows, 3D printing, digital dentures, and eventually exocad—and why she believes the best digital workflow isn't necessarily the fanciest one, but the one that actually works in the real world. Caroline also talks about working with her sister and daughter in the family lab, the importance of exposing young technicians to different laboratories and workflows, and why sharing the mistakes you've made can sometimes be one of the best ways to help someone else learn. From Scotland to the world of digital dentures, this is a great conversation about curiosity, adaptability, education, and never being afraid to learn something new. You know what's expensive in a dental lab? Most people would say the mill, but the real cost is downtime. When production stops, everything backs up—cases get delayed, technicians get frustrated, and customers start asking questions. That's why reliable equipment matters. Roland DGA's DGSHAPE DWX milling solutions are built for dependable production, helping labs stay on schedule and keep work moving day after day. Less downtime means fewer surprises and more time doing what your lab does best. And when your equipment is reliable, your customers notice the difference. Reliability isn't just a feature—it's the foundation of a successful lab. Visit rolanddental.com to learn more about Roland's DGSHAPE DWX milling solutions.Special Guest: Caroline Kirkpatrick.

By Doug Green "It's really touched so much of what we do and how we think about our practice and how we communicate. It's been amazing for us." In this follow-up to our earlier conversation with Weave CTO Abhi Sharma, we move from the technology strategy to the experience of an actual healthcare practice. Dr. Jeffrey Ellis, co-founder of Belaray Dermatology on Long Island, joins us to discuss how Weave has changed patient communication, front-office workflow and the way his practice is beginning to use AI. Ellis says the practice had reached a point where staff were juggling multiple systems at once. At one stage, employees had "seven different windows open" as they tried to manage calls, scheduling and other patient communications. At the same time, phones were constantly ringing, front-desk employees were serving patients in person while answering calls, and multiple callers could be waiting on hold. "It just wasn't good for anyone, for my staff or for patients," Ellis says. Weave helped consolidate those communications and move more routine interaction to text. Patients can text the office 24/7, with staff monitoring messages seven days a week. The platform is also used for appointment reminders, visit-specific instructions and post-visit outreach. Ellis says that shift has reduced pressure on the front desk while making it easier for patients to communicate with the practice. The impact can go beyond convenience. Ellis gives the example of a patient coming in for a full-body skin check while wearing nail polish. Because skin cancer can sometimes occur beneath fingernails or toenails, the practice wants patients to arrive prepared so those areas can be examined. Better reminders and pre-visit communication can therefore support a more complete exam and, ultimately, better patient care. AI is adding another layer. Ellis explains that an AI tool can review a very large number of conversations and surface the few that may need his attention. "That AI tool might listen to a thousand conversations and pull out three of them for me to review. I can review three conversations. I can't go through all of them." For a smaller independent practice, that can provide a level of quality oversight that would otherwise be difficult to achieve. The larger takeaway is that AI and better communications do not have to make healthcare less personal. In Ellis's experience, they can reduce administrative friction, give staff more time to focus on patients and help an independent practice deliver a more consistent patient experience.

In this episode of Medical Matters Podcast, Dr. Peter Brier and Nurse Practitioner Kelly McCormick discuss the ongoing costs of healthcare.Topics include the expenses, but also the business aspects: free-standing hospitals and practices began to be bought up under the belief that costs would come down. There is also the inflationary aspect, with pressure on healthcare providers to raise their prices in order to get better reimbursement from insurance companies.There is also the issue of monopolies. A recent story in the Washington Post describes how hospitals under such collectives are driving up costs. Dr. McCormick also relates her own recent experiences. The subject also shifts to the potential for national, single-payer healthcare, with some examples of residents traveling to the US from Canada or other nations. Older residents appear to travel here more for specialized care.

May and Tim Hindmarsh sit down with Dr. Mike Simpson, whose path to medicine was anything but conventional. Before becoming a physician, Dr. Simpson spent years in military Special Operations, working in environments where decisions had to be made quickly, resources could be limited, and the stakes were very real. Dr. Simpson shares how those experiences shaped the way he approaches medicine today—from staying calm under pressure and making difficult decisions to understanding leadership, teamwork, resilience, and the human being behind the patient. But transitioning from the battlefield to civilian medicine wasn't simply a career change. It meant navigating a major shift in identity and learning how to translate skills developed in extreme circumstances into an entirely different world. This conversation explores what medicine can learn from Special Operations—and why some of the experiences that challenge us the most can ultimately make us better physicians, leaders, and people. In This Episode, We Discuss: Dr. Simpson's unconventional path from Special Operations to medicine What practicing medicine in high-stakes environments teaches you about decision-making How battlefield experience changed his approach to patient care Staying calm and effective when circumstances become chaotic Leadership, teamwork, and accountability under pressure The transition from military service into civilian life and medicine Navigating identity after leaving an intense, mission-driven career Why technical ability alone doesn't make someone a great physician The role of empathy and human connection in medicine How difficult experiences can become strengths in the next chapter of your life About Dr. Mike Simpson Dr. Mike Simpson is a physician and former U.S. Army Special Operations medic whose career has taken him from austere and high-risk environments to the practice of civilian medicine. His experiences across military operations, medicine, leadership, and major career transitions give him a unique perspective on performing under pressure, caring for people during their most vulnerable moments, and adapting when one chapter of life ends and another begins.

Prior to becoming an anesthesiologist, Alyssa Burgart trained in bioethics. She now counts herself among a growing number of certified clinical bioethicists who help doctors, nurses, patients, and their families handle ethically complex medical decisions at the bedside. Bioethicists are critical to care, Burgart argues, helping patients facing difficult choices to clarify personal values and weigh a complex array of risks and benefits, as well as emotions and familial, cultural, and religious norms. While much of her work is in pediatrics and maternal-fetal cases, she also studies how moral distress and moral injury impact clinicians, contributing to burnout among doctors and nurses. Having a strong ethical community brings resilience to these challenging environments, Burgart tells host Russ Altman in this episode of Stanford Engineering's The Future of Everything podcast.

In this episode of Derms and Conditions, host James Q. Del Rosso, DO, welcomes Joshua Burshtein, MD, chief dermatology resident at the University of Illinois Chicago, to discuss their recent Journal of Clinical and Aesthetic Dermatology publication, Topical Prescription Therapy for Psoriasis: An Expert Position Paper on Limitations of Published Guidelines and Treatment Selection with Updated Recommendations. Their conversation examines the intended role of clinical practice guidelines, the limitations that emerge as therapeutics evolve, and why clinician judgment remains central to individualized psoriasis care. They begin by defining what treatment guidelines are intended to accomplish: to provide an evidence-based framework for clinicians rather than a rigid set of rules. Dr Burshtein notes that although the paper focuses on topical psoriasis therapies, many of its core principles apply broadly across dermatology, particularly as rapid therapeutic advances challenge the ability of clinical guidelines to remain current. Dr Del Rosso discusses the downstream effects of this disconnect, noting that guidelines are often treated as mandates by third-party payers despite disclaimers stating that they should not replace clinician judgment. The speakers emphasize that treatment decisions should remain patient-centered, with clinicians, insurers, and manufacturers all contributing to timely access to appropriate care. They also explore additional limitations of clinical guidelines, including differences in methodology among organizations and the inability of any single document to encompass every available therapy. The discussion concludes with the importance of recognizing bias in guideline development while reinforcing that treatment selection should be guided by clinical evidence, physician expertise, and shared decision-making with the patient. Tune in to the full episode to hear Drs Del Rosso and Burshtein discuss the evolving role of clinical guidelines, their limitations in everyday practice, and why individualized clinical judgment remains essential to psoriasis care.

Hey there Voices of the Bench community, this is Trish Jones with Ivoclar. If you've been curious about fast-firing zirconia to improve efficiency but aren't convinced it can deliver predictable, high-quality results, I'd encourage you to connect with us. Our new IPS Emax Zirconia offers multiple fast-fire protocols designed to help save you valuable production time while maintaining consistent results. Time is money in every lab. Don't wait. Reach out to your local Ivoclar rep today and discover how IPS Emax Zirconia can help streamline your workflow. As full-arch dentistry continues to grow, so do the demands on today's dental laboratories. That's why Knight Dental recently launched SimplyARCH Studio, a dedicated production environment built exclusively for full-arch restorations. To support this specialized workflow, Knight invested in an XTCERA milling system and carefully evaluated multiple CAM software solutions before choosing hyperDENT. The decision came down to exceptional milling quality, minimal hand finishing, and impressive production efficiency. But what truly set hyperDENT apart was the implementation process. From the very beginning, the team provided more than software training—they shared the knowledge and experience needed to build an optimized workflow for complex full-arch cases. With proven expertise in advanced milling strategies and laboratory production, hyperDENT helped ensure SimplyARCH Studio was designed for long-term success from day one.Matt Everatt joins Elvis and Barb for a fascinating conversation that takes a deep dive into his journey through the dental laboratory industry and the story behind his book, The Invisible Profession. From discovering dental technology at 16 and specializing in maxillofacial prosthetics and orthodontics to working in hospitals, developing early sleep-apnea appliances, and nearly leaving the profession altogether, Matt's career has taken some seriously interesting turns. Eventually, he helped co-found S4S, building a successful business around sleep-apnea appliances, occlusal splints, orthodontics, and more before eventually stepping away from ownership. Matt Everatt joins Elvis and Barb for a fascinating conversation that takes a deep dive into his journey through the dental laboratory industry and the story behind his book, The Invisible Profession. From discovering dental technology at 16 and specializing in maxillofacial prosthetics and orthodontics to working in hospitals, developing early sleep-apnea appliances, and nearly leaving the profession altogether, Matt's career has taken some seriously interesting turns. Eventually, he helped co-found S4S, building a successful business around sleep-apnea appliances, occlusal splints, orthodontics, and more before eventually stepping away from ownership. But this conversation goes far beyond Matt's career. His book, The Invisible Profession, explores how the dental laboratory industry arrived at a place where technicians and laboratories are often undervalued, pushed into price competition, and expected to simply keep their heads down and produce. Matt shares his thoughts on the "million little things" that shaped the industry, the danger of becoming a "busy fool," and why laboratories need to stop competing solely on price and start becoming known for the value, expertise, and partnership they bring to the dental team. Elvis, Barb, and Matt also talk about the changing landscape of digital dentistry, AI, 3D printing, speed, service, and why the labs that embrace change and remain agile will be the ones positioned for the future. It's an honest, thought-provoking, and ultimately optimistic conversation about where the dental laboratory profession has been, where it is today, and where it can go next.Special Guest: Matt Everatt.
