In this episode of The Dental Edge Podcast, we explore the intersection of clinical care, ethics, and practice profitability by challenging the long‑standing “build‑up and crown” mentality. Through the philosophy and clinical protocols of Dr. John Gammichia, we ask an important question: is the traditional “safe bet” always the best option for the patient? Join us as we examine how rethinking default treatment decisions can lead to better outcomes for patients—and practices alike.
