    Leading With A Smile

    What can a board-certified dental aesthetics expert teach us about leadership? Discover the answer in this inspiring episode of Keep Leading!® podcast, as host Eddie Turner interviews Dr. Michael Landry, owner of Consultants in Dental Aesthetics and a nationally recognized leader in his field. Dr. Landry offers a unique perspective on leadership, having built a successful practice while earning fellowships in seven prestigious dental academies. From managing complex cases to lecturing across the country on innovative dental technology, he knows what it takes to lead with both precision and compassion. In this conversation, you'll see how Dr. Landry's approach to patient care—especially his passion for diagnosing and treating the often-overlooked epidemic of sleep apnea—reflects the qualities of outstanding leadership: noticing what others miss, advocating for those in need, and having the courage to tackle problems that could literally save lives. Whether you're leading a team, building a practice, or serving your community, Dr. Landry's insights on excellence, continuous learning, and maintaining work-life balance will inspire you to lead with both skill and compassion. About Dr. Michael LandryDr. Michael Landry is the proud owner of Consultants in Dental Aesthetics and is an invaluable part of our robust team of skilled doctors. He is a board-certified diplomate in aesthetics and sleep dentistry. Dr. Landry has been awarded fellowships in the Academy of General Dentistry, the International Congress of Implantology, the Misch International Implant Institute, the Institute for Advanced Laser Dentistry, the International Academy of Dental-Facial Aesthetics, the International College of Dentists, and the American Society of Dental Aesthetics.Dr. Landry has lectured nationally on CEREC restorations, the use of CAT Scans in dentistry, treating patients with hemophilia, 3D printing, digital scanning, 3D designing, and practice management. Dr. Landry also has a passion for treating patients with sleep apnea. “Just as many people have sleep apnea as diabetes and asthma, but sleep apnea often goes undiagnosed. Currently, only 10% of those with sleep apnea have been diagnosed. If left untreated, sleep apnea can shorten your life by 7 years. We can use oral devices instead of CPAP to treat this disease.”Dr. Landry was born in Orange, Texas, and attended Lamar University and the University of Texas Health Science Center in San Antonio. He is married to his wife, Mary Ann, and together they have four grown children. He attends Prince of Peace Catholic Church, where he serves as an Acolyte. In his spare time, Dr. Landry can often be found enjoying some time outdoors while golfing or fishing. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
