In this episode, we dive into the complex role of social media in dentistry, both its opportunities and its pitfalls. We explore how platforms can be powerful tools for practice growth and professional visibility, but also how they create pressure around authenticity, transparency, and comparison. Our conversation unpacks the importance of setting clear intentions for social media use, defining your audience, and aligning your online presence with your values. We also examine the dangers of unrealistic expectations fueled by curated feeds and how that stress impacts the mental health of dentists. The episode closes on a hopeful note, emphasizing the potential of social media to foster genuine connections, build supportive communities, and strengthen relationships across the profession, while underscoring the need for better systems to support dentists’ well-being in the digital age.
