Kim Laudenslager joins the podcast today to speak about initial licensure and then portability of that license. It has been an issue for families who have had to pick up and move due to whatever circumstances or even those who live near the border and want to practice in both states. 

For this episode we head across the Pacific Ocean (via an extremely fast internet connection) to welcome in Emma Cubis to the show! Emma is an Oral Health Therapist in Melbourne Australia and a fellow podcaster. She is extremely motivated to help both clinicians and the public learn more about proper oral health through her social media accounts and podcast so be sure to give them a follow!

As a bonus to this episode, we play a little Would You Rather: Dental Edition!

In this week's episode we bring back the very engaging, incredibly smart An Chih Angela Do to talk to us a little bit about pediatric dental hygiene. We cover lots of topics but I was really interested in what she said about the questions she is asked on social media and how she deals with parents.

This month's Fast Facts: Perio Edition will be a series that Katrina refers to as... Are You Smarter Than A Dental Hygiene Student?

In this episode we review the Oral Mucosa and before you move past this thinking that you won't need this refresher, let us remind you that Oral Cancer screenings should be performed on each and every patient. Knowing what is "normal" for each tissue type is super important so please give this episode a listen. If you are an educator, please share this with a friend!
