It should be competency based, not necessarily time based things. People learn at different rates. And this was a max fax nurse who's obviously seen regists for decades, where I'm sure like, the junior regists are better than the senior regists. Just because they soak it up more. [Jaz]The whole pros element, right? Multiple crowns, four rehabs, lots of general dentist do four rehabs, lots of general dentists do all on fours, that kind of stuff. So, nowadays it's like blurred lines between, okay, what do they actually need a Prosth for? However, prosth, I think they're very employable. However, lots of people who do an MClinDent Prosth end up being general dentist.

    Health is Wealth (Wellbeing, Diet and Stress) – IC055

    Two weeks ago I suffered a spontaneous pneumothorax and it shook me. This episode came at the PERFECT time as such health scares remind us that our health and wellbeing are the highest form of Wealth. Should Dentists have a therapist to manage stress and anxiety? Did you know that a BDA survey found 1 in 5 practitioners have seriously considered taking their own lives? Is it the intense work environment, the pressure from patients, the fear of litigation, or the added burden of business ownership? More importantly, how can we address this issue and support dental professionals? Dr. Simon Chard, a cosmetic and implant dentist and co-founder/CEO of Parla (as seen on Dragon's Den!), joins Jaz to discuss the often-overlooked realities of the dental profession.  https://youtu.be/rH7PtjFTOpk Watch IC055 on Youtube Here are the two books Jaz recommended during the intro: The 5 Types of Wealth by Sahil Bloom Hold on to your Kids by Gabor Mate Check out The Dental Growth Retreat by Dr Simon Chard Need to Read it?

    How to Temporise Veneers Step by Step FULL GUIDE – PDP214

    What is the best technique for fabricating temporary veneers? How do you ensure they are retentive but not TOO retentive? What’s the best way to shape, polish, and remove them efficiently? In this episode, I’m joined by Aodhan Docherty—an absolute sensation in Sydney when it comes to veneers. He’s mastered the art, and today, he’s on a mission to share everything you need to know to get crisp, stable, and well-shaped temporary veneers every single time. We break down different protocols, troubleshoot common issues, and, most importantly, make sure your temporaries stay put until it’s time for the final fit. https://youtu.be/BI_xMlSXgvc Watch PDP214 on Youtube Protrusive Dental Pearl: Aodhan recommended a chlorhexidine-based mouthwash to reduce inflammation but advises using an ADS (Anti-Discoloration System) mouthwash to avoid staining. The ADS system helps maintain healthy tissue response, preventing bleeding and inflammation on the day of veneer placement while eliminating the discoloration commonly associated with standard chlorhexidine products. Key Takeaways: * Temporary veneers serve as a blueprint for final restorations. * Facially driven smile design enhances patient satisfaction. * Patient adaptation is key to successful cosmetic procedures. * Oral hygiene is vital for maintaining temporary veneers. * Effective communication with the dental team improves outcomes. * Understanding patient biotype is essential for treatment planning. * Stress management is a critical skill for dental professionals. Patient-centric approaches are essential in modern dentistry. * The shrink wrap technique offers better control and aesthetics for temporaries. * Effective communication with patients enhances their experience and satisfaction. * Hands-on training is crucial for developing practical skills in dentistry. * The importance of assessing temporaries before finalizing restorations cannot be overstated.

    Decision Making for Anterior Composites – PDP211

    How far should you extend composite resin? When does edge bonding become a composite veneer?  How do you decide where to finish the restoration?  And most importantly, how do you avoid that dreaded yellow-brown stain line that can form on anterior resins? These are just some of the burning questions tackled in this episode with my guest, Dr. Mahmoud Ibrahim. We dive deep into the artistry and engineering of  decision-making in anterior composites. https://youtu.be/_q2O57-Y-d4 Watch PDP211 on Youtube Protrusive Dental Pearl: use a zirconia primer which contains 10-MDP (e.g. Monobond, Z-Prime Plus) on the intaglio of crowns to enhance bond strength, even with conventional cements like GIC. This low-risk, high-reward tip improves retention, especially for teeth with limited height. Incorporating a zirconia primer can significantly improve outcomes without switching to resin cement. Interested in the Unchippable 2 Day Course? Click here to register your interest! Key Takeaways: * Choosing between edge bonding or veneers is not a black-and-white decision. * The height of contour is key in cosmetic dentistry. * Seamless transitions between composite and tooth are pivotal. * Aesthetic considerations vary based on individual cases. * Material choice is influenced by patient risk factors. * Layering techniques enhance the natural appearance of teeth. * Patient previews are essential for managing expectations. * Thickness of composite affects durability and aesthetics. * Understanding angles is key to successful restorations. * Not all patients require the same approach to bonding.
