    Very Dental: How to Talk to Your Lab with Dr. David Hornbrook

    Dr. David Hornbrook joins Alan in this throwback episode to talk about lab communication and digital workflow. David is convinced that the key to becoming a better dentist is communicating and having a good relationship with your dental lab.  David is REALLY glad to be back to in person teaching! David explains how he became such a lab and materials focused clinician "Knowing exactly what they're doing in the lab has made me a better dentist." Do you invite your lab to ask for more information and critique your work? Digital workflow isn't an invitation to be sloppy. PVS is way better for someone who doesn't pay attention to details What's the benefit of visiting the lab? Do you know who is creating your restorations? Your lab techs know what kind of dentist you are! Let's go to Lab Day in Chicago! Do you do CE with your lab tech(s)? Are we moving to implants too quickly? Bridges are legitimate treatment in a lot of cases and implant are not always the best choice. The greatest trick for strengthening a zirconia bridge! Becoming David Hornbrook Photography vs. "Instagram Photography" Patient expectations and "ideal" dentistry Weighing minimally invasive techniques against creating room for materials Informed consent and how the dentist "spins" the treatment David's recommendations for new dentists: find a mentor eliminate the undesirable procedures from your practice as soon as possible realize that you're going to be a dentist for a long time "hurry up and slow down" Be uncompromising Some links from the show: Vedder Society David Hornbrook's courses (Utah Valley Dental Lab) The Very Dental Facebook group Join the Very Dental Facebook group using the password "Timmerman," Hornbrook" or "McWethy," "Papa Randy" or "Lipscomb!"
