Show Notes

In this episode, Meredith is back with me to share the importance of ditching technobabble when communicating with your patients. We'll discuss why it's crucial to obtain your patients' consent before using complex dental terms since they didn't attend dental school like you did. We even share a hilarious story about a patient confusing resin with tree sap! This episode is not only informative but also filled with plenty of laughter.
