We brought on our dental school friend Dr. Mike Dyriw, who somehow went from living in a van during orientation week to becoming a board-certified endodontist in Nashville.
In this episode, we cover:
Mike’s “Wax Rim Scandal” that almost got him in trouble in dental school 🦷
Why endodontists roll their eyes at “Please remove decay and assess restorability” referrals
Whether they actually want you to prep the tooth first or not
The truth about build-ups, temporaries, and CBCT add-ons
How boring endo is (for assistants) and how Mike hires for that
The weird billing codes specialists use (and how insurance ruins them all)
Netflix’s “Root Cause” documentary and if patients actually believed it
And if most endodontists are actually board certified
🎧 Listen wherever you get your podcasts, or watch the full video on YouTube.
