Podcasts about treatment planning

Thanks to the AMAZING people at exocad (https://exocad.com/ids), Elvis and Barb THIS WEEK will be recording for the first time at IDS in Cologne, Germany (https://www.english.ids-cologne.de/). March 25 - 28 in Hall 1, booth A040/C041. Come see us, be on the podcast, and see all the amazing things exocad is doing for your lab! Already we are missing everyone at LMT Lab Day Chicago 2025. Luckily, we talked to a lot of people that weekend and can still highlight some of the amazing people we met. First up on this episode is Julia Glancey who comes to Chicago all the way from the UK. Julia talks about her journey working for her dentist father, doing a little demolition, before finally finding a home in a dental lab. Entering the industry though management, it wasn't long before she was teaching herself the lab work and getting into full arch restoration. Now Julia is working with a team remotely from all over to provide exceptional care to patients. Next we talk to Shavit Kohen, who is a student at the New York City College of Technology. The amazing thing is that before she has even graduated, she owns Spark Dental Lab (https://www.instagram.com/sparkdentallab/) in New York City providing everything from crowns to all-on-x cases. Shavit talks about her journey, starting at the front desk, to how a current student can open a lab with all the technology. Then for the last conversation, we pivot to bring you Christine McClymont from exocad (https://exocad.com/) to talk all about what they have planned for IDS (https://www.english.ids-cologne.de/) week! If you are at the show, make sure you stop by the exocad booth in HALL 1, booth A040/C041 and see all the amazing things Christine talks about.

Drs. Tiffany A. Traina and Claudine Isaacs discuss how they approach HER2+ early breast cancer treatment planning and which patients can take advantage of de-escalation.

In today's episode, Dr. Killeen shares one of the best treatment planning tips he's learned from his partner, Dr. Brandon Chapek. What makes Dr. Chapek so successful at gaining case acceptance? It's not about showcasing his skills or expertise—it's about focusing on the patient. When you shift from trying to be interesting to being interested, everything changes. By asking thoughtful questions, listening deeply, and making patients feel truly understood, you naturally build trust—and with trust comes acceptance. Tune in to learn how this simple mindset shift can transform your patient relationships and treatment planning success.

Let's dive into treatment planning, shall we? ;) Somehow I haven't made an episode about treatment planning in the 6+ years of making private practice content. It's time!

In this episode, we dive deep into the critical importance of forward-thinking treatment planning in dental practice. Too often, reactive decision-making — addressing problems as they arise — can lead to rushed, emergency situations that disrupt both the dentist's schedule and the patient's long-term oral health. But how can we transition from this reactive mindset to one that anticipates issues and builds a comprehensive, proactive treatment plan? We'll explore strategies to minimize last-minute crises in your schedule while also empowering patients to take ownership of their dental health. You'll learn how to shift the conversation from "fixing" isolated dental issues to promoting full, comprehensive care that helps patients understand the importance of addressing underlying problems before they become emergencies. In this episode, we'll break down the differences between single-tooth dentistry — where issues are dealt with in isolation — and comprehensive diagnosis, which looks at the patient's entire oral health landscape. Adopting a comprehensive approach not only improves patient outcomes but also helps you run a more efficient and sustainable practice. We'll discuss the profound impact this shift can have, not just on patient care but on the overall success of your practice. Join us as we share practical tips, real-life examples, and actionable advice for transforming your treatment planning process. Whether you're looking to reduce stress, enhance patient trust, or improve your bottom line, this episode will give you the tools you need to elevate your practice and become the proactive, forward-thinking clinician you aspire to be.

You always make me smile in these introductions, so I appreciate that from you. I'm doing good and I, you know, get to celebrate you today too and I think that like I'm just so glad that I've been able to be a part of your seven -year journey with DAT.   The Dental A Team (01:32.533) Good.   The Dental A Team (01:45.654) Thank you, thank you. I am happy to have you here. And I'm excited to talk about today's topic. We've talked a lot about relationship building with our patients and within our team and the effects, the positive and negative effects that communication can have on one another. And today, I really, really wanted to look at that communication as far as treatment planning goes. How does it look from the treatment planning standpoint and really how that relationship affects the way that we think as well.   And Dana, I know you work with a lot of clients constantly and I know we work on handoffs and all of those pieces and treatment planning and we have systems and steps and processes. And sometimes I know when we were prepping for this, I talked about a client that I wanted to speak on and I, and sometimes we just get to watch it land for them. And it was really close. We're on a video call and I was talking about NDTR, which all of our listeners should know what NDTR is. If you don't go find a podcast, we'll talk about it again in the future. I'm sure.   We're doing NDTR, we're doing all of the pieces and I started reviewing treatment planning processes as far as problem solution problem, which is a system that I think we all implement with our practices, but it's something that I thought a couple of years ago just made so much sense and makes such a difference when it comes to really speaking to the patient about the issue rather than the solution. It's very easy for us to get caught up   treatment planning a crown, treatment planning a filling, treatment planning an implant, which is something that's outside of our bodies. It's unrelatable. It's not ours. It's not, it's like where I'm buying a tube of lipstick. It's not mine. And I can make the choice emotionally to disconnect from that tube of lipstick, right? In the moment I'm like, this is the color I need. It's going to change my life. I'm going to look so much better. But by the time I get to the front of the store, most of the time I've emotionally disconnected from the result and I'm ready to put the tube of lipstick back.   and not purchase it. So when I'm thinking about treatment planning, all of these solutions, treatment planning, the crown, there's not an emotional connection to that. And this is a space, unlike the lipstick, this is a space where you really need to be emotionally connected to that purchase because it's for your health. And when patients are treatment plans and we're not keeping that in mind, we're not keeping that emotional piece at the forefront of our minds and keeping that as an important factor,   The Dental A Team (04:08.81) I truly think we're doing them a disservice. If I can do everything I can to ensure my patient is healthier when they leave my practice than when they walked in, I know I've done a dang good job today. We buy things on an emotional standpoint, like emotions. You know, I taught something the other day that was like, here I am saying like, I'm not going to buy anything. I'm saving all my money. I'm not buying anything. And then there's a 50 % off discount. And I'm like, I have to buy that. That's an emotional purchase.   everything is based off of emotions. So when I had this conversation with this doctor and I'm like, we're focused in on the problem. I'm not selling you a crown. I'm selling you a fix to your broken tooth, to your decayed tooth, to your infection. I'm selling a healthier tooth, not a crown. Her eyes just like blew up. But she was just like, my gosh. And this is a doctor who's really struggling.   treatment planning and treatment planning definitively because she feels like her patient base can't afford it or she feels like she's just after money and like all of those negative self -talk things that everyone in dentistry feels she's overloaded with them constantly and when I took it and said you're not are not selling a crown I'm not asking you for a thousand dollars for a crown or two thousand dollars in California I'm asking you to let me fix your tooth   She was like, my gosh, I'm so excited to go implement this because this is a game changer for me. You just changed how I feel about treatment planning and Dana, I think a lot of our clients feel that way. think dentistry in general, we feel really like we're taking advantage of people and the perception of dentistry infiltrates our minds and we become that. And we are so scared to help   that we hold back a lot, especially when we're not towards the end of the year and we're like, there are benefits. We start holding back from telling people the truth about what they need. And that's doing people a disservice. Dana, I know I've got my story and I know you've got a million stories of clients that you've worked with as well. But how do you see in your world as a consultant that focus on the problem rather than the solution?   The Dental A Team (06:24.063) really comes into play and helps benefit your practices that you're working with all the   Dana (06:29.939) Yeah. And I think it's focusing on the problem and solution and then ideal outcomes too. Like you as a practitioner know and team members too. So this is for TUP too for treatment when it comes to like ideal treatment planning is you know what will also give the best result for the patient as far as longevity, as far as function, as far as, and patients don't know what they don't know. And so it is challenging yourself to not just look at problem cause solution, but ideal solution, best   The Dental A Team (07:00.322) Yeah. Yeah. I love that. I love that. And I love that you said they don't know what they don't know. And, they truly don't. Our jobs are to inform patients of what's wrong and that we can fix it. Or if we can't fix it, someone we know can, we can refer them somewhere else. And our jobs are, are to find those issues, celebrate the win, celebrate the healthy, find the issues that they're having and ensure that they know the path to success for a healthier   and a healthier version of themselves. That gets lost a lot of times. And honestly, Dana, I think it's really easy to lose it, like to lose that focus when we are focused on goals. You know, we're focused on the production and the collection and the treatment plan case acceptance and these black and white non -emotional results are the focus that we're looking at. But we have to remember that there are systems and underlying pieces that get us to those   And when we lose that piece of what we're working on, that's where I think we get lost in the minutia. So some of the pieces that really, really, really helped my doctor stay focused on that problem to my two favorite solutions to that is to forget everything, you know, about finances and cost. Don't think about their insurance. Don't think about their social standing or what you think they have in the bank account or what you think that   patient base can or cannot afford. I know in my practice years ago, I had a man come in who looked like he walked straight in off the street. He looked like this man has no money. We diagnosed him all kinds of treatment. He had got like $40 ,000 worth of treatment that he needed, but we did our due diligence and we said, this is what you need. This is our best place to start to get you out of pain, to get you moving towards healthy. The next day.   this man walked in with a grocery bag, okay, a grocery bag from like Safeway or Fry's or Kroger or wherever, a grocery bag full of cash to pay for his whole treatment. He'd just been waiting for the right place to invest that money and he decided that he was the right place. But had we gone off of our initial gut feeling of what this man could or could not afford, we may not have diagnosed everything that he needed. Or we may have said, you know what, this is a lot, let's start here. And only   The Dental A Team (09:26.593) treatment plan five grand and left the other pieces to piece no later. So when we can forget the money aspects of it, insurance and cost aside and really just focus on the patient's health, I think that makes a huge determining factor. Like cancer patients or Dana, you've been through this. Like what if your doctor didn't tell you everything or tell you every option that you had to get healthy because they felt   this is a more expensive route, you should go through this one because it's more affordable. You're not gonna get potentially the results you want or it might take longer, but this is the more affordable path rather than this one over here that's gonna cost you more. From your experiences, things fly in my mind, but what would that have been like for you as a patient not being able to make the decision for yourself because somebody made it for you ahead of   Dana (10:20.169) Yeah, I think it would have been really obviously frustrating, right? Frustrating, I would have probably lost trust. And I probably would have gone somewhere else in that instance. And I think sometimes what is the eye opening, I just talked to a doctor about this the other day, he's been doing some more like larger cosmetic cases, and he's been getting really excited. And, and we were just talking about how it used to be like, okay, well, what are my options? And it's it's bonding, right in those front teeth. And then, so we were just talking about how ideally, right, when it even comes to finances,   some things that we do to protect patients finances or we think that that's what we're doing, right? Well, if I am rebonding you every six months and I have just done those veneers from the beginning, it's actually like sometimes an aha moment and that what we think is financially best for the patient when we make that decision truly isn't. And in the long run, they spend more money on the bond and bond and bond and bond than they would have just spent on the veneers and crowns had we started from the beginning with   The Dental A Team (11:19.356) Yes, I totally agree. I love that. Or the bridge, the bridge, the bridge when the other two teeth were fine or maybe just needed fillings and they could have done an implant and making sure that they have those choices. And I think that's the next step in the process for getting the money. Forget the finances. You have options. Okay, doctors, like you have options. You don't need to worry about them. Your team knows them. Your patients will find them out. So forget the money.   Doesn't matter what the cost is and forget the insurance. You need to think about what's best for your patients. Give them the options. Here's the caveat to options guys. I have worked for doctors. I have worked with doctors. Dana has worked for and with doctors that give way too many options. This is just the case because you guys are in a world where you're making decisions for people. You're truly making decisions for people and a dentist beside   might make a different choice in that same decision, they might have a different opinion. That's just the facts of dentistry and that's okay. That's okay. What do you think is going to be best? When we give a patient too many options, it's confusing. When things are confusing and there's not a clear path, we lose trust. So then all of a sudden we're like, well, if I need all of these things, do I really need any of them? Or is it okay? Because this just sounds like everything that could happen.   to my tooth, you're trying to do something on it. So we lose trust in them. So our hard fast like standby is two options are always best. Three is the most. And three is like, you could do nothing. You could do an implant, or you could do a bridge, or do nothing, do multiple implants and a denture. Like that's my three options in most cases.   Dana, how do you run that with your practices that you work with when it comes to options? Do you to do two? I like two because it's like chocolate vanilla juice. That's very easy. But I am, you know, I'll go up to three. But how do you feel that benefits your clients when they start utilizing a similar structure?   Dana (13:25.577) Yeah, I agree with you. I'm like a two, three person, like, let's go in with ideal, right? We've got one backup plan. Because two, like when we give too many choices, patients will always default to the easy one. When they're confused, when they don't trust, when they don't understand, like they will always default to what is easiest. Now for every patient, that's going to be different as far as it is it easiest financially? Is it easiest time? Is it easiest to understand? Right? But they're going to go into default mode, and they're just going to pick the thing that they   The Dental A Team (13:48.09) Thank you.   Dana (13:54.119) understand or fits best in their budget or whatever is easy for them at the moment. And so I think understanding that, that like when we overwhelm with choices, patient is always going to default to something that is easy and that's typically not what gets them the best result or is ideal.   The Dental A Team (14:11.29) Yeah, that's beautiful. That's beautiful. I love everything you just said. You're 100 % on track. We as human beings are going to choose the easiest route. I think dentistry, like dental professionals, we think the easiest route is whatever is going to last the longest. So you're going to get longevity out of it. But honestly, as a consumer, sometimes the easiest route is whatever is going to get me the results I need right now, because I don't have time or finances in my mind to think about   future. So I'll deal with it when it comes back up again. But for right now, this is the option I'm going to choose to handle it today. So I totally I do that. Like I have done that in my life. I do that. That's why there's credit card debt. You guys. That's why there's debt in this country, because it's easier to choose that in this moment to satisfy whatever need emotional or physical we're looking at. And we're not thinking about the longevity and what that's going to look like in the future. Nobody looks   Purchase on a credit card that I know I don't know a single human being that looks at the purchase on a credit card and thinks Okay Well if I spend this $500 for this thing on my credit card by the time I pay it off It would have cost me then by then it's gonna cost me 700 no one thinks about that in our minds It's just 500, but that's not the case. We're getting the added, you know percentages They're not thinking if I do a filling today at $300 it's gonna cost me   potentially six months even as soon as six months, it's going to cost me in whatever time period it looks like another two grand on top of that 300 to get the crown or five grand for an implant of the extraction and an implant and an implant crown. They're not thinking that. So if we're not saying it to them in ways that make sense and like Dana said, making it easy for them, we're doing them a disservice. And the reason I say   is to express the reason like Dana and I speak like this is to express the importance of understanding. And that's part of that relationship building we talked about. It's not fair for patients to leave confused, in my opinion. And we have the opportunity, the space and the knowledge and the education to make it really simple for them. A lot of doctors will argue and say, I mean, they need to know everything.   The Dental A Team (16:34.219) And I agree, I think they do need to know everything. That's where the options come into play, but they are not capable of making the choices and the decisions that you've been trained to make. It is your responsibility to make sure that we're looking at what is the most important thing, what is the most important factor for this patient and what's gonna be the best for them short term and long term and give them those options.   Money aside, insurance aside, like delete all of that, forget all of it, focus on what's best for the patient and the patient's health, and then give them the options that they deserve. Again, we like two to three because it cuts down the confusion and makes things super easy for them. In my opinion, this is really, really, how you treatment plan for patient needs.   on the flip side of that transferring to your front office and your treatment coordinators and making sure that they understand going back to that problem, right? That problem cause solution, problem solution, problem, like sandwich it. Make sure that the person who's reviewing the financial aspects knows why the patient needs that treatment as well. Cause they're now selling a crown, but they're not, they're still selling the solution to the problem. And I want you guys talking about the problem.   because that's the emotional piece that patients need to connect to to understand how important it is that they get healthy. It's not to get them to where they say yes every time. Like they're still not gonna say yes every time, but you've done your due diligence to ensure that they are tied to their health, not just tied to purchasing something from you. I've heard dentists and I think it's amazing say all the time, even if you don't get it done here, I don't care.   I just want you to get it done. want you to be healthier. And that to me is caring. That's the relationship. That's the piece. And that's when patients are like, okay, maybe I should believe you. Like maybe, maybe I should go get a second opinion or maybe I should believe like that's pretty ballsy to say something like that. Like maybe I should invest in this. But those are those pieces you guys where they've deleted and removed some financial aspects and focused in on that patient's health.   The Dental A Team (18:48.455) So here's your tips for today, actionable pieces that you can take away. Always transfer the reason, the why. Transfer the problem to the patient and to the next person. Focus your treatment planning chair side with your patient and financials on the actual problem and tell them you've got the solution for that. So we're focusing on the problem and we're giving them the solution. Always, always, always.   forget the cost, forget the insurance, forget the money, and put the patient's needs and health at the forefront of everything you do. I think if you can implement those three things right away, or one of those three things right away, you're gonna see a change. And I hope it helps you feel better about your position and helps you feel more purposeful in what you're providing your dental patients across the country. So Dana.   How excited are you for these doctors to implement these pieces? We've seen it. We've seen it work. We've seen it work with hundreds of practices, just in our own consulting separately, and then also our group consulting. We see it work constantly. How excited are you for our listeners today to get this bundle of information, go implement it, and completely change how they think?   Dana (20:03.343) I am so excited because I really feel like this is a game changer and a final piece I just wanted to say as far as like building confidence in doing this. If you go to like anywhere as a consumer and you go to the electronic counter, right? And you ask, Hey, what is the best X, Y, or Z? Right? You are expecting them to tell you.   better or best, not just okay or good or will do. And so if your expectations on your interactions with people in any service industry or what they're going to recommend is better best, hold yourself to that same standard.   The Dental A Team (20:38.533) That was beautiful. Hey guys, and on that, we are wrapping up. are closing with that, Dana. Thank you so much. Thank you for being here. Thank you listeners for being here. As always, reach out to us. Hello@TheDentalATeam.com. We are happy to help work through this. Again, we have systems for it. We can pop them over to you.

Episode Two of the “Real World LDRT” miniseries (sponsored by Xstrahl) is all "meat and potatoes", as the kids used to say (back when FDR was president). I start with a high-level overview of the laboratory evidence for LDRT, followed by how to get your first patient and what you say to them when they ask "how does this work??" Hint: it's like NSAIDs and prednisone, just a different pathway. We then explore my favorite CTSIM setups and target volumes/PTVs. Remember: 3 Gy in 6-every-other-day fractions, assess at 12 weeks, and deliver a second identical course if necessary/desired. It really is that easy.

Episode 160: Artificial Intelligence in Primary Care.      Future Dr. Manophinives explains the present and future of AI in diagnosing and treating diseases.    Written by Rosalynn Manophinives, MS-IV, American University of the Caribbean. Editing by Hector Arreaza, MD.You are listening to Rio Bravo qWeek Podcast, your weekly dose of knowledge brought to you by the Rio Bravo Family Medicine Residency Program from Bakersfield, California, a UCLA-affiliated program sponsored by Clinica Sierra Vista, Let Us Be Your Healthcare Home. This podcast was created for educational purposes only. Visit your primary care provider for additional medical advice.Today, we embark on an intriguing journey at the crossroads of technology and healthcare: The Future of Healthcare in Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML). Let's start by establishing the groundwork for AI and ML. Artificial Intelligence involves machines mirroring cognitive functions like learning and problem-solving, while machine learning empowers machines to learn from data and refine their capabilities over time. In healthcare, these technologies aim to elevate diagnostic precision and treatment effectiveness which are pivotal aspects in primary care medicine.Accurate diagnosis is the cornerstone of effective patient care in all forms of medicine because an accurate diagnosis guides treatment decisions and influences patient outcomes. This is why the integration of AI and ML holds immense promise in this field.Section 1: AI in Diagnostic Assistance (4 mins)Let's explore how AI utilizes algorithms to analyze extensive datasets, enhancing diagnostic accuracy significantly.AI serves as a revolutionary force in analyzing a large amount of data, particularly in medical imaging. Imagine AI algorithms as super brains, employing machine learning to decipher intricate details from X-rays, MRIs, and CT scans. Notably, studies have demonstrated their precision matching and even surpassing that of human experts. For instance, research published in the Journal of the American Medical Association revealed AI algorithms outperforming radiologists in detecting conditions like breast cancer.AI's skills extend beyond images. It digs into genetic information, medical history, and treatment outcomes, acting as a detective to spot patterns, predict responses, and customize interventions. Studies support this, showcasing AI models outperforming dermatologists in diagnosing skin cancer from images. Will AI replace doctors?The beauty of AI is that it does not replace doctors but acts as a super investigator in your healthcare corner, expediting diagnoses, and refining treatments. So, AI isn't merely accelerating processes; it's enhancing healthcare outcomes, making diagnoses quicker, and treatments more precise, and minimizing errors. The future appears very promising with AI leading the way to more precise and tailored healthcare.Section 2: Case Studies in Diagnosis (4 mins):Help in research: Let's delve into real-life examples of AI in action, further amplifying diagnostic accuracy. In a research study, Rajkomar and collaborators crafted an AI algorithm predicting patient deterioration within hours, leveraging electronic health record data. This tool allowed for proactive care, identifying potential issues before they escalated. Taking it up a notch, Aliper and collaborators compared AI to human researchers, resulting in AI outsmarting human brains in designing drugs targeting age-related diseases. These experiments underscore AI's potential in diagnostics, from catching issues early to designing groundbreaking drugs.AI here enhances doctors' capabilities and acts as an additional set of eyes, boosting their superpowers, spotting nuances, and proposing game-changing solutions in medicine.Section 3: AI in Risk Prediction (4 mins):Let's shift our focus to AI's role in predicting risks and prognosis, particularly in conditions like COPD.AI employs sophisticated algorithms to analyze patient data comprehensively, including demographics, hospital visits, diagnoses, prescribed medications, and lab results. In COPD, AI not only predicts mortality but also anticipates hospital readmissions for respiratory issues or flare-ups. By scrutinizing various markers, AI resembles Sherlock Holmes, unraveling clues within data.And AI doesn't stop there, AI integrates risk predictions into medical practices, which fosters personalized care tailored to individual risk factors. A study led by Choi and their team analyzed retrospective patient data and they were able to identify individuals at risk of undiagnosed COPD, emphasizing the significance of catching potential issues early, finding those who might slip through the cracks otherwise, which is huge! Section 4: AI in Treatment Planning (4 mins):Let's now explore how AI is revolutionizing treatment planning within medicine.AI, equipped with machine learning algorithms, tailors treatments by analyzing patient-specific data and medical history. In cancer, for example, AI analyzes biopsy images and quantifies biomarkers, facilitating personalized treatments. Beyond cancer, AI extends its reach to cell therapies, predicting their effectiveness through genomic information and drug responses.And here's the techie part: AI employs various smart algorithms like Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) and Recurrent Neural Networks (RNN) to provide personalized treatment recommendations. It's like having personalized treatment recommendations by experts that fit you like a glove, catering to individual needs. Section 5: Fuzzy Cognitive Maps and Reduction of Medical Errors (4 mins):Lastly, let me tell you about the impact of AI-driven treatment planning, specifically in reducing medical errors. Imagine this—medical decisions? They're tough. Sifting through tons of data, inaccessible medical records, physicians' lack of experience, and loads of conflicting info, makes the decision often not crystal clear. This is where a high percentage of medical errors occur, which is where Fuzzy Cognitive Maps (FCMs) come in.  FCMs are like a super-smart tool that mimics human reasoning, tackling the messiness of medical data with grace.FCMs are all about modeling complex systems, by combining fuzzy logic and neural networks, just like our brain does—connecting the dots between concepts and their cause-and-effect relationships. From patient records to test results, they make sense of it all.And FCM is not just theory—FCMs are the real deal and they're not the newbies in town; they've been around for a while, evolving from their early days. They've proven their worth in various medical areas too – in radiotherapy planning, diagnosing language impairments, and even in grading tumors!So, in a nutshell, FCMs are useful tools for medical decision support by taking on the complexities of diagnosing and treatment planning.Closing:In conclusion, the integration of Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning in healthcare is a thrilling frontier, offering invaluable tools to enhance diagnostic accuracy and patient outcomes. As we evolve, responsible use of these advances is paramount, ensuring they optimize rather than replace the indispensable human touch in healthcare.Thank you for joining me in exploring the future of healthcare in AI and Machine Learning. I trust this discussion has sparked curiosity and appreciation for the transformative potential of technology in healthcare. -----------------------------------Conclusion: Now we conclude episode number 160, “Artificial Intelligence in Primary Care.” This is a new and somewhat unknown field of medicine that is rapidly evolving these days. Future Dr. Manophinives explained that AI and ML can be a useful tool in the diagnosis of diseases by, for example, interpreting images accurately. AI also can help develop plans of care by interpreting large amounts of complex data and predicting trends, possible complications, and the effectiveness of multiple treatments. Keep your eyes and mind wide open to learn more about this advancing technology that will continue to support our efforts to bring health and well-being to our communities.This week we thank Hector Arreaza and Rosalynn Manophinives.

Is your gut instinct harming or helping patients? Sometimes we're just not sure which is the ‘best' treatment plan to recommend or even if a single tooth is restorable. Dentistry is an art AND a science, which is why things are not black and white. We sometimes get stuck in ‘analysis paralysis' and rely on our gut instinct to save us. But can we really trust gut instinct in decision making/treatment planning in Dentistry? Is it really serving our patients? https://youtu.be/vIEYEA9Y61s Watch PDP171 on Youtube Protrusive Dental Pearl: Make sure to feel the root tip fragment (rub with your gloved index finger) after extraction - it should feel nice and smooth.

665: Treatment Planning & Digital Are Not the Same Thing! – Dr. Jeff RouseIf you're new in the digital space, there's one thing you should know: digital smile design and treatment planning are not the same thing! To explain how they're different and why the confusion is one of his biggest pet peeves, Kirk Behrendt brings back Dr. Jeff Rouse from Spear Education with advice for using digital and analog in your treatment planning process. Analog isn't outdated just yet!

So, when DSD or Dr. Christian [Coachman] talks about doing that, I think that's perfect. I absolutely agree with the whole concept of being able to motivate a patient to continue on and create the desire to do dentistry. Got it. The problem comes when you believe that is treatment planning — because it's not. It's a motivational mock-up to get people interested in doing something, but it tells you nothing about how to actually do the dentistry.” (4:46—5:34)“Digital designing doesn't show you how to treatment plan the case. It simply is a way of giving an illusion to a patient to create a desire to act, but it doesn't treatment plan the case. In fact, I would argue, in some cases, it actually does quite a bit of harm because unless you're skilled at treatment planning, you don't know what can and can't be accomplished. You just simply pick out the perfect place for a smile, and it doesn't matter if the teeth are going to actually work with that final smile at all, and it ends up creating the need for more dentistry, some dentistry that doesn't really need to be done. There are tons of problems...
