Customer Reviews
Top Ortho Podcast - A++++
Look forward to every time a new episode drops. Great conversation, excellent questions and insight to the orthodontic speciality but get to know the guests on a personal level. Dr. Cetta and his crew have the secret sauce !
Do or do not…there is no try w/ the Illuminate orthodontic podcast
A Podcast For (just about) Everyone!
As a sales rep and patient, I love learning more about the orthodontic world. What I enjoy most about this podcast is how Dr. Cetta dives into the whole picture of the doctor. We hear about the doctor’s journey, mission, and responsibility to give back, not only to the profession, but to the community as well. I highly recommend you grab your favorite drink (since that’s how Dr. Cetta starts off each episode) and enjoy this laidback yet informative podcast!
Recommend for Dental Students!
I’m a 3rd year dental student interested in orthodontics and love listening to this podcast! It is inspiring and motivational to hear Dr. Cetta interview his interesting guests. At this stage in the game, I don’t always understand the more technical orthodontic jargon, but it gets me excited about my future! Keep up the great work!
