He mentions the potential benefits for dentists partnering with Mainline, particularly regarding cost reduction for union members.

Ryan emphasizes the importance of oral hygiene practices such as brushing teeth twice daily, followed by flossing and mouthwash, although he acknowledges variations in dental advice. He underscores the importance of trusting one's dental provider, as they can assess oral health needs accurately, particularly for individuals prone to plaque buildup.
