Dr. B was interviewed on the Healthy Mouth, Healthy life Podcast by Ms. Carrie Ibbetson who is an oral health coach and patient advocate. Carrie is a hygienist who has been in dentistry for over 20 years and has a podcast for the general public about oral health care. She also helps people with oral conditions that are complicated from the point of view of the public. In short, she helps people make choices with their oral health decisions. She uses patient language to explain the conditions in patients’ mouths and in even simpler terms becomes a non-biased bridge between dentists and patients.
Carrie wanted to talk with Dr. B regarding the language of occlusal splints (better known as Occlusal guards or bite Guards). Dr. B makes quite a few occlusal Splints and charges over $1000 for each. But can only do so because of the specific language he uses with patients.
