Chew on This! A Dental Podcast

Does Dentistry Have An Image Problem?

Listen Later

Every day there are headlines of dentists being investigated or indicted among other things. But most dentists are pretty cool people. Until we can be known for desirable careers we will have a hard time finding qualified team members. We don’t get all down in the dumps though - join us as we talk about how jogging toothbrushes and big molar kiosks could save the day!

 

Quotes

  • “The economy of dental hiring has changed.”
  • “Dentistry as a whole has a real PR problem.” 
  • “If a dentist really wants to burn out, try not having an assistant. Good luck with that.”
  • “You can’t be afraid to talk about cancer in your practice, and you need to have a plan if you find something suspicious.” 
  • “There are a lot of young people that don’t see themselves in a dental office, because they don’t know what it means to be in a dental office.”
