    Solo Short: Reviving the Mission of Healthcare

    Healthcare wasn't always about rushing between appointments, managing overhead, and surviving burnout. It started with a calling — and sometimes, all it takes is a jungle in the Dominican Republic to remember that.In this solo episode, Dr. Brett Gilbert takes us inside the Revive Mission, a transformative dental mission trip to El Valle, Dominican Republic, where a group of like-minded clinicians came together to serve a community in need — and in doing so, rediscovered why they became healers in the first place.

    Modern Endodontics: It’s Rooted in Communication with Dr. Bill Nudera

    In this episode, Dr. Brett Gilbert sits down with his longtime friend and colleague Dr. Bill Nudera — board-certified endodontist, Air Force veteran, textbook author, and founder of Nuendo — for a candid, wide-ranging conversation about what it really takes to build a career in endodontics. Bill doesn't hold back. He opens up about being waitlisted twice before breaking into endo on his third application cycle, the Air Force mentorship that changed his trajectory, and why the biggest mistakes in clinical dentistry are made not with a handpiece — but with your mouth. Together, Brett and Bill challenge the culture of speed, reframe 'retreatment' as 'revision,' and make a compelling case for why communication is the single most important skill any clinician can develop.

    Solo Short: Embracing Powerlessness

    In this solo episode of On the Cusp, Dr. Brett Gilbert reflects on closing his 18-year practice after his building was slated for demolition — and what he learned about resilience, impermanence, and letting go. Dr. Gilbert shares his journey from solo practitioner to joining Northwest Dental Specialists, exploring the illusion of permanence we build around our careers and the freedom that comes from embracing powerlessness. He reminds us that the magic of our practices was never in the building or technology — it was always in us. This episode offers perspective and encouragement for any clinician navigating transition, feeling stuck in routine, or learning to trust themselves through life's inevitable changes.
