It's always good, as technicians, to get a clinical perspective of all the work we do. Let's be honest, without the clinical side.... We wouldn't have work. But getting to talk to a clinician that LOVES and APPRECIATES lab work is even better.

As it turns out, there is quite a bit more to Paul than wearing massive PPE and swabbing peoples' brains. Paul is a self-proclaimed "smashodontist." His prosthodontic practice focuses on people who have been in car accidents and workplace accidents. It turns out that his practice has figured out a way to help these people which entails a combination of prosthodontic acumen and a deep understanding of paperwork. Paul and Al have a wide ranging conversation about COVID aftermath, scientific skepticism, how we know what we know and most importantly...smashodontics! Will dental schools bounce back from COVID? Going back to specialize after 5 years of general practice and "being in over your head." Introspection and self awareness Instagram expertise and the reality distortion field Understanding the literature and the literature's weaknesses. Is dentistry "science based?" Our own prejudices may be more important than the "science" when it comes to what/how we treat stuff. See a recent Alan Mead Experience on "Confirmation Bias."
