    Oral Surgery Sisters: Drs. Kimiko & Kristi Agari - Dose of Dental #254 x Dr. Gallagher's Podcast

    Top 5 Topics: - Two Sisters Who Became Oral Surgeons Together - Breaking the Boys' Club: Women Mentoring Women in Oral Surgery - The Shocking Difference Between Hospital Surgery vs. Elite Private Practice - What It ACTUALLY Takes to Pass Oral Surgery Boards - The Wild, Unexpected Path to Choosing a Dental School (Vegas $19 Flights!) Top Quotes & Wisdom: (12:58) Kristi: "You can lead a horse to water, but you can't make it drink." (24:07) Kimiko: "At the end of the day, if you have the right understanding of the path and find mentors, no matter what dental school you go to, you'll be able to specialize." (24:25) Kristi: "You can specialize anywhere. It really just depends on you. If you're meant to specialize, you will be able to do that wherever you go. It's gonna be fine, it's gonna work out, it's gonna be okay." (24:58) Brendan: "Wherever you match, that's the dream program for you. After that, all hands are off. Just focus on the next thing now." (48:49) Kimiko: "What separates you as an orthognathic surgeon from someone that just knows how to do it versus someone that excels at doing it is those moments intraoperatively — no two patients are the same." (1:02:13) Kristi: "It does take generations sometimes... it takes a long time to get to that perfection." (1:17:48) Brendan: "Everyone should have a podcast. Talk about whatever you're passionate about — people will follow if they're interested. The more information going out gives the next generation the opportunity to learn." (1:19:00) Kimiko: "There were not that many women in the program, not many women attendings that I could seek guidance or mentorship from — so that's kind of how we started this, to provide that for younger women oral surgeons looking for it." Top Questions: (03:40) Kristi: "What was she like as an examiner? Was she really mean?" (07:49) Brendan: "Kristi, ever feel like 2 years behind... did you ever feel like, a little competition there?" (13:34) "Why didn't you go to UOP? It's a 3-year dental school, you were on track — why didn't you both want to do that?" (25:46) "How was she as a chief? Honestly lol, honestly." (38:02) "And then she went off to a fellowship — why? What was the reason behind the fellowship?" (1:02:33) "You're a fourth-generation oral surgeon?" (1:04:58) "People are always asking me, why did you move back to Vegas?"

    Dental Implant In The “Aesthetic Zone,” Bone Grafting | Oral Surgery Techniques #2 with Dr. Gallagher

    Key Concepts: 1 - Width vs. Length Trade-off: Apex concavity forced a shorter 8.5mm implant (10mm planned) at 3.75mm width to protect the buccal cortex 2 - Reading Anatomy Beyond X-Rays: Apical concavity wasn't visible on imaging — confirmed only by drill palpation 3 - Spacing Guidelines: 1.5mm implant-to-tooth, 3mm implant-to-implant — both maintained 4 - Aesthetic Angulation Challenges: Bone limits required a compromised trajectory, corrected with a multi-unit abutment (15°–33°) 5 - Buccal Grafting Technique: Thin periosteal reflection via sulcular incision to tuck a 50/50 cortical-cancellous graft for added contour Key Instruments & Materials: - Osteotomy drills — sequential prep, monitored by feel to avoid apical perforation - 3.75mm x 8.5mm implant fixture — sized to bone constraints - Periosteal elevator — used for thin, careful reflection during graft placement - 50/50 cortical-cancellous graft — buccal surface augmentation - 3-0 chromic gut suture — closure Instrument Partner Of This Project – (Could be you!
