Today on the podcast, I have two gentlemen who are widely respected in the orthodontic world. They are great clinicians and teachers. 

In addition, they are in touch with the business side of orthodontics with things such as efficiency, productivity, and technology.

I have Dr. Sean Holliday and Dr. Barry Glaser.

Recently, there have been great discussions online, specifically about Dental Monitoring. On the one hand, some people say it has changed their practices and their lives. On the other hand, others claim that it's just another extra expense.

That's the main discussion we are having in this episode. We start with the null hypothesis that Dental Monitoring makes no difference in one's practice.

Dr. Sean Holliday states that it saves so much clinical time and increases our capacity because we can focus on the relevant appointments.

It is also great from a patient's perspective because they only show up for significant things.

Dr. Barry Glaser adds that Dental Monitoring is all about automating routine processes. It's about reducing the noise by focusing on the 20% and letting the technology do the other 80%.

Tune in to this fascinating conversation and learn more about Dental Monitoring and the details of how these two gentlemen today are using it in their practices.
