Robots can prep crowns. AI can read your X-rays.
Software will optimize your schedule. 

After 12+ years, I’m retiring Relentless Dentist because the edge is moving...rapidly!

In this episode, I explain: 

• Why Working Harder Is Producing Smaller Returns: Same effort. More competition. Thinner differentiation. 
• The Five Human Levers That Are Separating Practices: They’re not clinical. And they’re getting rarer. 
• Where Profit Is Quietly Migrating: Money follows what’s hard to replace — and that’s changing fast. 

If you want your practice to be stronger five years from now than it is today… Listen now. 

The edge didn’t disappear. It moved.

Every headline says AI is coming for your job. Elon Musk just called attending medical school "pointless." 

I'm not so worried about all that. I'm worried about the dental practice owners who hear all of it and still change nothing.

• The K-Shaped Split: Same economy, same pressures, radically different outcomes. Why some practices are winning while others are being commoditized.
• The 4 Pillars That Make You Irreplaceable: AI fluency, human workplace, adaptive design, and decision velocity. A framework you can act on this quarter.
• Why the "Inefficiencies" Are Your Edge: When AI handles the efficient stuff, the value flips to the human moments no system can replicate.

▶️ Listen now. Making no decision is a decision; it's just the wrong one.

I quit this podcast 565 days ago. I thought I was done.

I was wrong.

Something is happening in dentistry right now that most practice owners won't recognize until it's too late. 

The advantages you built your practice on—clinical skill, technology, and operational polish—are compressing fast. And the conventional advice the industry keeps recycling is making it worse.

• The Real Reason Your Team Is Flat: It's not laziness. It's not generational. It's biological. And once you see it, you can't unsee it.
• You Can't Compliance Your Way Into Performance: 8 out of 10 employees are disengaged or working against you. The industry's obsession with SOPs and accountability is creating the exact crisis it's trying to solve.
• Irreplaceable vs. Interchangeable: One is a treadmill. The other is a moat. Which one is your practice becoming?

Just 10 minutes. ▶️ Hit play. This changes how you see the next 3 years.
