Show Notes

Most dentists don’t need more education — they need more implementation.

In this episode, T-Bone and Meredith unpack the hard truth about elite-level CE and why thousands of dentists stay stuck in the same schedule — overwhelmed, overworked, and still doing single-tooth dentistry.

They reveal why collecting certificates doesn’t create confidence, and why your next level isn’t another course — it’s better systems, stronger leadership, and true team alignment.

You’ll learn how to finally turn your continuing education into continuing results.

In this episode, you’ll discover:

The 3D Framework:
• Evaluate your readiness and resources
• Align your CE with your practice stage and patient base
• Implement with your team — don’t go it alone
