For the first episode of 2026, Dr. Martin Mendelson and Dr. Kyle Stanley break down what dental professionals should be focusing on to build a more productive, profitable, and sustainable year. They dive into the key performance metrics that matter most in 2026, how to manage overhead with intention, and smart goal-setting strategies that actually move a practice forward.

Beyond business, Kyle and Martin explore what it means to grow personally as a dentist…including the importance of maintaining an identity outside the operatory. They discuss the often-overlooked connection between physical health and clinical performance, highlighting how regular exercise, better nutrition, and proper sleep can reduce stress and dramatically improve day-to-day energy.

This episode sets the tone for a year of smarter decisions, healthier habits, and meaningful progress, offering a clear roadmap for dentists who want to thrive in both their practice and their personal life in 2026.
