Your Student Debt Is Bananas


Hey Friends,

The concept of dental student loan repayment is pretty nuts.

You took out around $500k in loans just to learn how to do basic procedures.

You come out and know little to nothing

Then you have to essentially invest in more education to be able to level up.

If you didn't know you needed to do that... now you know lol

I say this because I wish I knew that earlier in my career.

The first dentist I worked for actually told me CE was a waste of money... (he was wrong - kind of)

I think the right way to frame it is that not all CE is created equal.

I have invested in good and bad CE.

The bad CE were courses that didn't live up to the promise they made or I may have taken them too early in my career.

You see for CE to make sense you need to be able to be in an environment where you can immediately start taking action and implementing your learnings.

Because it has been shown that the longer you wait to implement after learning something the higher the chance is that you will not do the procedure.

So if you're a practice owner - once you make up your mind that you are going to do a course... do it all the way.

Focus on it and prioritize it.

When you do you will see the highest ROI on your investment.

There will always be other shit going on in your practice... that isn't going anywhere.

But the success rate of implementing a new procedure is something that will DROP over time the longer you wait.

And for the associates...

Don't go taking CE that you can't implement.

If your office is not equipped for full mouth rehabs... save the $10k on that big course.

You're better off going and spending $2,500 on 4 seperate courses on specific procedures that you can implement tomorrow... (root canals, extractions, aligners, case acceptance)

Just my thoughts on this Sunday morning.

Hey Friends, I used to work in a Medicaid office, and scrolling through Instagram was tough. All I saw were top veneer docs like Dr. Apa, Sam Saleh, and Dr. Duval crushing it with high-end cosmetic work, while I was over here doing basic dentistry. It made me feel like shit. It got to a point where my therapist suggested I unfollow them for my mental health. At first, it felt wrong, like I was being jealous. But honestly, that was just the voice in my head. You really think they noticed if I...

Hey Friends, I see a lot of dentists think they need to invest tens of thousands of dollars learning full-mouth rehab, veneers, or advanced procedures, but they can’t even confidently perform straightforward treatments yet. Here’s the deal—learn the basics first, then skill up from there. It’s also important to evaluate if your practice is even structured to implement those procedures. For example, if you practice in an area where most of your patients are partially or completely edentulous,...

Hey Friends, I once worked at a practice that tried to cut costs by re-using scanner sleeves for their iTero, even though they’re meant for one-time use. Most of the time, it seemed fine. But there were days when scans came out distorted or it took longer for the camera to capture the teeth—eating into chair time and sometimes even requiring a re-do if we had to bring the patient back. I get it—those costs add up. My recommendation? If you can find alternatives that don’t cut into efficiency,...
