    BackTeeth Boys Podcast Ep. 3 - Dose of Dental Podcast #182 x Dr. Gallagher's Podcast

    Top 5 Topics: - $800K Oral Surgeons & the Truth About DSO Buyouts - The Frenectomy Gone Wrong: Laser Disaster in the Floor of the Mouth - How to Handle One-Star Reviews Like a Professional (Without Losing Your Cool) - $500 Smart Glasses, Cybertruck Ghosts & The Future of Tech in Dentistry - Why Young Dentists Should Choose Mentorship Over Money BackTeeth Boys Band Members: - Dr. Serv Wahan - Seattle, Washington - Dr. Amir Tahmasebpour - Toronto, Canada - Dr. Joe Doctora - Nashville, Tennessee - Dr. Brendan Gallagher - Long Island, New York Quotes & Wisdom: 10:36 — Joe: “When a patient trashes their last doctor, I don’t pile on. I say: I wasn’t there—I only know what’s here today.” • 12:34–13:16 — Joe: “Own your one-star reviews. Don’t get defensive. Thank them, show you’re learning, and make clear what actually happened.” • 17:26–17:56 — Serv: “For sedation cases I keep magnification low—I need to see the whole face and chest rise. Safety beats zoom.” • 06:01–06:29 — Serv: “If you’re not truly proficient with the laser, don’t use it there. Collateral heat can turn a simple case into a disaster.” • 25:31–26:33 — Joe: “Everyone around me sold. Culture changed. I’m not ready to give up equity or power just for a check.” • 36:00–37:08 — Brendan: “Big DSO offers can be a high floor with a low ceiling. Read the vesting fine print—those ‘shares’ can keep you locked in.” • 52:29–53:46 — Amir: “Early on, choose mentors over money. Who you work with in the first years will shape you more than anything.” • 56:35–57:24 — Amir: “I gave my cell to referrers: ‘If you’re in a pickle, call me.’ Being available builds reputation fast.” • 50:26–50:45 — Amir: “I set a minimum daily. If they won’t meet it, that tells me everything I need to know about the office.” • 41:00–41:07 — Serv: “We brought a new surgeon in as a partner to align incentives—invested partners take better care of patients than gatekept associates.” • 35:08–35:37 — Serv: “It’s gotten harder to find associates—DSOs keep more specialty in-house. You must adapt your value proposition.” Questions: 02:46 — “How do you do your frenectomies? What’s your basic technique?” — Serv 33:04 — “Academia vs. private practice after residency—how should a resident choose?” — Brendan Now available on: - Dr. Gallagher’s Podcast & YouTube Channel - BackTeeth Boys Podcast - Episode 3 - Dose of Dental Podcast #182 My watch in this episode = Citizen Promaster Diver Day Date - 10.2025 #podcast #dentalpodcast #doctor #dentist #dentistry #oralsurgery #dental #dentalschool #dentalstudent #dentistlife #oralsurgeon #doctorgallagher #backteethboys

    The Best Dental Implant Starts With Planning With A Patient’s GP Dentist

    📍It’s the 2nd half of 2025, I just graduated residency in Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery in June, now starting to work at All County Oral Surgery in Melville on Long Island, NY. I’ll be an associate surgeon here & working toward a personal goal of becoming a partner one day. Outside of dentistry, I have side projects & companies to bring my passions to life, including mentorship, education, and life strategy, and I obnoxiously share a lot of content on it all as I go hahahaha 👉 Keep an eye out for my weekly TikTok LIVE Q&A Session (usually Sunday evenings) and the monthly Q&A session on Instagram (end of every month). Let me know how I can help you 🌎 *** PreDent Mentor Map is now LIVE, at predentmentormap.org ! *** it’s a free resource for predental students to use for data on every dental school, and to connect with current dental students for personalized mentoring. 🙋🏼‍♂️ If you’re an organization or club at a school and you’d like to discuss a partnership, event or conference, DM me on Instagram or LinkedIn- that is the best way to contact me directly ❤️ MOST importantly: THANK YOU. Mentoring is what got me here, and it is how I’ll help you achieve your dream goals as best I can. You are a MASSIVE part of this journey to me, more than you know 🤠 Sincerely, Brendan @doctorgallagher 🔗 Links to my platforms: https://linktr.ee/doctorgallagher/ #podcast #dentalpodcast #doctor #dentist #dentistry #oralsurgery #dental #dentalschool #dentalstudent #dentistlife #oralsurgeon #doctorgallagher
