    8. Betting on Yourself: Disrupting the Norm in Dentistry with Guest Dr. Avi Patel

    Dr. Avi Patel joins Dr. Clayton on Dentistry Disrupted to discuss their experiences as dental disruptors. Dr. Avi's non-traditional path as a dentist gives him a unique perspective on what changes are needed in the dental industry to not only serve patients better, but also to prevent burnout in dentists. Key Takeaways: Orthodontics is not just about creating a pretty smile, but also about improving oral health and preventing future issues. The dental industry needs disruption, as many dentists are not willing to share their knowledge and mentor the next generation of dentists, so we never make progress. Dentists face challenges such as toxic work environments, lack of mentorship, and pressure to prioritize insurance-driven procedures, which keeps them stuck. Dental insurance dictates treatment decisions, leading to a focus on volume rather than quality care. Guess who suffers? You.
