In this episode of the Nifty Thrifty Dentists Podcast, Dr. Glenn Vo chats with Tanner Applegate, Founder, and CEO of Unify—a platform that helps dental practices securely manage and share passwords.

Tanner shares his journey from initially wanting to be a dentist to realizing his passion was really in optimizing the business side of dentistry through technology solutions. His latest venture, Unify, aims to solve major pain points around password management that most dental offices face.

Key Highlights:

-85% of dental offices manage shared passwords through unsecure spreadsheets, exposing them to data breaches and HIPAA violations. Unify provides a secure, centralized solution. 

-In addition to security, Unify greatly improves efficiency by eliminating time wasted hunting down passwords. With one-click access to all your platforms, you can seamlessly switch between tools. 

-Unify allows you to easily onboard new team members, control permissions, and ensure past employees no longer have access—all critical for practices with high turnover.

-As a special offer for Nifty Thrifty Dentists, Tanner is offering a 30-day free trial of Unify with white glove onboarding support. The first 10 offices to sign up will get 6 months free in exchange for an honest review.

Secure Password Management for Dental Practices with Tanner Applegate and Dr. Glenn Vo

In this episode of the Nifty Thrifty Podcast, Dr. Glenn Vo sits down with Kyle Wallace, an Insurance Advisor from Wallace Specialty Insurance Group, to discuss breaking dental news: an exciting new alternative health insurance plan that offers better coverage at a roughly 30% lower cost than traditional health insurance plans.

Watch as Kyle—who has been working with dentists for over 35 years—explains how this loosely underwritten plan requires only 2 people in the practice to participate, offers zero deductible for pre-qualified procedures when working with a care coordinator, and is expected to have around 85% of applicants qualifying.

Key Highlights:

The new alternative health insurance plan emerged as a solution to small practices' difficulties after the Affordable Care Act changed insurance requirements and options.

It is priced at roughly 30% below traditional ACA health plans, providing significant cost savings for dental practices.

Unlike traditional plans with strict participation requirements, this program only needs 2 people in the practice to join.

When working with a care coordinator, the plan offers zero deductible for pre-qualified procedures or surgeries.

While loosely underwritten, around 85% of applicants are expected to qualify based on Kyle's prior testing.

Kyle's team can provide personalized support, explain the program in detail, answer questions, and guide dental practices through the sign-up process. There's no obligation to enroll—practices can simply check if they qualify and compare costs.

In this episode of the Nifty Thrifty Podcast, Dr. Glenn Vo sits down with Dr. Jeremy Krell—CEO

&amp; Founder of Revere Partners—to discuss investment opportunities in dental technology

companies.

Jeremy is a general dentist with over 15 years of experience investing in dental companies. His

industries you understand well, the due diligence process, how returns work, and having a voice

in the growth of companies you invest in.

● Investing through Revere allows investors to pool funds into &quot;special purpose vehicles&quot;

(SPVs) to invest in specific dental tech companies, simplifying the process. This

provides benefits like having just one line item on the company&#39;s cap table instead of

many individual investors.

startup/investment side. This allows proper vetting of companies and insights into their

real-world viability in dental practices.

● Investors get to actively engage with and support the growth of companies they invest in,

than just being a shareholder in a large public company.
