  • Great podcast, poor sound quality

    Lots of super hints and tips for running a practice but the sound quality is poor. Feels like you are in a cold empty room with the interview!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Ageism in dentistry with Fiona Ellwood
Q: How do you think this paper is going to be received?
Ellwood expects mixed perceptions, including the possibility that some will assume she wrote it because of her age, while emphasizing that her conclusions come from her research.
Ageism in dentistry with Fiona Ellwood
Q: What part do dental nurses play in portraying the acceptance of ageism?
Ellwood says nurses may participate in ageism by accepting stereotypes or giving way to assumptions about older or younger colleagues, and that teams need to examine these dynamics.
Building high performing dental teams with Linda I'Anson and Jack Orchard
Q: Is that something that people can actively work on to create that sense of safety?
Orchard says leaders can build psychological safety by modeling vulnerability, asking for help, showing empathy and having clear, productive conversations that allow teams to report problems and learn.
Building high performing dental teams with Linda I'Anson and Jack Orchard
Q: What does culture mean to you and the people that you work with?
Orchard describes culture through the behaviors an organization accepts, the things said about leaders when they are absent, and the everyday signals that reveal how the organization operates.
Communication, creativity, and why being human is still our greatest advantage with Helen Alexiou Pestana
Q: Tell me more about Fusion IQ.
Fusion IQ is the deliberate combination of artificial intelligence (speed and scale), human intelligence (empathy and judgment), and creative intelligence (imagination and meaning). When fused, they provide a fuller, more human-centric approach to communication and decision-making in dentistry, avoiding over-reliance on AI while preserving human touch.
