    AME: If You Can't Quit, Curate

    Social media is a blessing and a curse. Yes, it's self administered poison and yes, it can be bad for your mental health. So...you should quit. Or never start. But...if you choose to use it, you should curate what you see. Al gives some tips on this.

    This throwback episode features how we introduced the Very Dental Student Podcast! Mohamed talks with Al for a couple minutes and then brings in Dr. Brandon Evert to talk to him about the transition from student to dentist! Original show notes: Welcome to the inaugural episode of the Very Dental Student Podcast! Alan introduces your host, Mohamed Abo-Basha, who is a D2 at University of Oklahoma! Al's tips for dental students: If you can swing it, many dental companies will sell stuff to dental students at a pretty great discount (think loupes, headlamps, etc.) Take advantage of your dental student email address! Then, Mohamed brings the one and only Dr. Brandon Evert on for an amazing interview! Brandon's take on dental school Learn what kind of student you are (morning person, night person) and learn how to organize a routine Comparing and contrasting dental school styles (case studies vs. route memorization) When did you first get patient contact? Brandon was heavy on reps in the sim lab (note from Al: that makes Brandon smart!) Get used to indirect vision in preclinic! Brandon's first year out and his 4 year military commitment Military = seeing LOTS of dentistry Rotations at Paris Island (CAD/CAM, endo with a scope, surgery) Is the military experience worth it? Brand explains the financial aspects of a military scholarship ("it's not just a way to get free dental school.") and the non-financial aspects HPSP vs. HSCP Brandon's long term plan for private practice Some links from the show: The Extracting Wisdom podcast Anki flash card app The Shared Practices Podcast Join the Very Dental Facebook group using the password "Timmerman," Hornbrook" or "McWethy," "Papa Randy" or "Lipscomb!"

    Group Function: Maximizing Your Digital Dentistry Investment with Dr. Armen Mirzayan and Damien Bonner

    Alan is joined with Dr. Armen Mirzayan and Damien Bonner of CAD-Ray for a second round of discussion on digital dentistry! Damien explains a typical progression of someone moving into digital dentistry. Companies shouldn't sell digital products to dentists that aren't ready for them. Armen is a very cheap salesperson.  Buy your scanner from someone who knows something about scanners. CAD-Ray are terrible sales people but amazing support people. Armen on scan bodies One very cool thing about digital dentistry is that we can verify accuracy in ways that you can't in analog dentistry. Digital margins are tiny enough that we cannot manufacture to the tolerances that we actually see on the digital impression. The slop is in manufacturing more than digital scanning Photogrammetry and the accuracy of digital scanners over an edentulous scan. How to make an accurate scan for full arch implants Intraoral photgrammetry with the Shining 3D Aoralscan Elite This is going to start making smaller implant cases faster and cheaper!
