Russ talks with Dr. Andrew Ip from Sydney, Australia. Andrew is a second generation dentist who works in both his mom's practice and his dad's practice and teaches CAD-CAM dentistry as well. We talk for the hour about what it is like to practice in a former British colony as well where the technology is taking us. It is a cool discussion.

Their goal is to bring clinicians together on a wide variety of topics from clinical skills to business discussions. In our podcast we talk about how social media has evolved over time and how dentists have gravitated towards it. We also talk about the downsizing of Align and Dentsply Sirona as well as why maybe that has happened. Finally we discuss what might be done about the hygiene shortage.

This week Russ talks in person with Dr. Abraham Hoellerich and Dr. Lance Timmerman live at Pathway Symposium after hours. We talk about a variety of topics such as how to fix CE events, how Abe built his office into the magnificient beast it is, bringing staffs on trips, as well as how sedation. Lots of cursing as well... you have been warned...
This week Russ and Clint get to talk with Dr. Artie Volker. Artie talks about his recent residency he finished in Italy and we talk about how we enjoy taking courses and learning new things and talking with colleagues.

This week Russ talks with Dr Jeff Hoos who create the H&H technique. He also runs the Dental Insights Facebook group and own a rather large office with 4 other dentists. We talk about his career since he graduated in 1978 as well as how stuff has changed and go on various topics. We end the conversation talking about Dentapreg as well which he likes.
This week Russ and Clint talk with Sam Katacic VP of Sales for Rapidshape. We talk at length about the changes in the market for 3d resins and how automation is driving a lot of changes. Rapidshape has validated over 200 resins on their platform and has processes to ensure that each print is routine and predictable. This is really nice especially if you have staff turnover, it is easy to train new employees to your resin. Also Russ gets pretty excited to hear about their curing unit which doesn't need N2 to cure but rather uses a vacuum. He will be looking into that product for sure. If you want to learn more about Rapidshape, go to Rapidshape.de.
This week Russ talks with Dentscape AI co-founders Bill Chou and Sylvie Liu, DDS along with their VP of Business Development Ryan Axelson. They've all been on the podcast before when Russ went to Smilecon in 2022. On the previous podcast, they talked about PreTeeth AI Pro which does smile design using AI to simulate what is possible doing different treatment modalities.
Dentscape AI is a web based software that currently can design bite splints and crowns using a simplified interface with the goal being to expedite the entire process so that labs can design units in a day and be more efficient. We talk about the process of developing the AI as well as why they first started with bite splints rather than crowns as well as why humans are still needed to guide the AI. If you are interested in hearing about how AI is "done," it is a cool conversation.
If you are a lab interested in partnering with Dentscape, contact Ryan. His email is [email protected] or you can find him on Facebook as well. If you prefer LinkedIn, his page is https://www.linkedin.com/in/ryanaxelson/
Also as a disclaimer, they have given me Russell a few free credits to try out their software, but I am not being paid to endorse them at all. These people are friends of mine.
