A Tale of Two Hygienists Podcast Andrew Johnston, RDH - One of the Two Dental Hygienists

Let's talk infertility. The WHO just updated their statistics that 1 in 6 are impacted by infertility. If you are seeing 8 patients a day, good chances that one of them will experience infertility issues. Jessica Woods joins us on the show this week to talk about what it is, who is affected, what medications we should be on the look out for and so much more!

Dentistry, with our unit doses and infection prevention materials, creates a lot of waste. Many of us are working to limit the amount of waste our offices produce but some practices aren't there yet. In this Fast Fact, we talk about a few ways to know if an office is doing the right things, and how to find them. 
In Partnership with Cranberry USA, check out their new Bio Nitrile Gloves that reduces the waste in our landfills - www.cranberryusa.com

In this short episode we shoot our shot to convince hygienists to start disclosing all patients. We talk about 3 key reasons and hopefully open up the door a little bit for change. Dentistry has been preaching that disclosing is for children, we aim to change that narrative.

I (Andrew) am so happy to introduce you to our new co-host, Annie Walters. In this episode, I take the opportunity interview her and get to know her a bit better. I learn about her experience but more importantly, how she sees the profession. I am excited to start this next chapter with her and am looking forward to what she brings and hopefully... she will bring lots of opinions!

There are lots of considerations for which anesthetic you should use and 3% plain is commonly used in dentistry. Mostly we think it should be used in cases of short acting, but then we have to consider that multiple cartridges could lead to toxicity... so when should we use it? Tom Viola explains in today's episode!

Fighting is inevitable. We fight with people we don't like, we fight with our coworkers, we fight with our friends and loved ones etc. But this is an art to fighting the right way and in this TIPisode we lean on a recent article that teaches us some key points and takeaways.
