In this episode, Dr. Grace Yum speaks with Dr. V. Kim Kutsch, founder of Oral Biotech and creator of CariFree, about redefining how dentistry approaches tooth decay.

Episode Highlights:

• Why tooth decay should be treated as a bacterial disease—not a drilling problem
• The importance of understanding why decay occurs, not just how to fix it
• Simple first steps to implement caries risk assessment in your practice
• How prevention-based care builds patient trust and practice growth
