Top 5 products
1. Sirona Cerec Blue Cam and MCXL.
As dentists, we typically love control.
With a Cerec, I am obsessed and see
at 30x magnification what my margins
look like. Great margin plus great image
equals a well-fitting and proper crown
with close margins. If I have an issue, I
don't need to wait three weeks for it to
come back from lab and find out.
2. LumaDent TTL 3.4x loupes with
LumaDent light. Overhead lights are
too weak; I want bright light focused
where my head is looking and turning.
LumaDent lights give me that ability,
and TTL loupes allow me to see the
magnification needed to have smoothly
prepped margins.
3. Ivoclar e.Max. Properly prepared and
bonded e.Max gives such predictable
results and minimal failures due to
fractures. One of the most expensive
costs is a redo; e.Max allows me to
minimize redos.
4. Apex Surpass Bonding System.
To achieve higher patient
satisfaction, I always tell
patients very clearly that
there may be sensitivity
after a filling. I aid in making
myself look like a genius
and have higher patient
satisfaction (and predictability
of results) by using Apex
Surpass as my bonding agent.
5. Millennium PerioLase. I've seen
some amazing results when
using this laser to treat perio.

knew that I would burn out. I feel like we often limit
ourselves to what we can accomplish. Many think that
working longer, harder and faster is the only answer
to success. If we are true to ourselves and know what
and how we want to practice, we can accomplish it
by analyzing and learning the needed skills. I find
that four doctor-patients a day is my optimum. I
spend time talking to patients to effectively create the
value of why treatment is needed. Then I spend time,
without pressure, to do good and accurate work.

How do you plan your day at the office?
Our morning meeting at 7:45 a.m. is "patient-centric"-
we discuss fun facts or info about them to remind ourselves.
I see my first patient at 8 a.m., the second at usually 11.
Hour lunch somewhere; the next patient typically at
1 p.m. and the last one around 3:30. Hygiene checks in
between, and then I hit the gym by 5:15.

You remain incredibly passionate and excited
about dentistry, while many of your peers are
bored or facing burnout. What's your secret?
Work should be enjoyed as much as possible. If
we are going to spend 30 years (or more) of our lives
doing something day-in and day-out, then we owe it
to ourselves to create the work environment we want.
I see four doctor-patients for a reason. It allows me to
