Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Ep 112: Beyond the Operatory: How to Build a Different Career in Dentistry
Q: What tips do you have for someone if they want to start working out of the OP but they have no idea what they want to do?
Montoya recommends talking with people, exploring opportunities through social media and articles, trying varied projects, attending conferences and local events, and building relationships with dental representatives. Experience can help reveal which work to pursue.
Ep 112: Beyond the Operatory: How to Build a Different Career in Dentistry
Q: Do you think that that's necessary if somebody wants to work out of the operatory?
Montoya says an advanced degree depends on the role. Many opportunities in speaking, writing, key opinion leader work, and consulting do not require one, while teaching in an accredited hygiene program generally requires at least a bachelor's degree.
Ep 111: Dental Professionals: How To Exercise for a Pain-Free Career
Q: So for someone who's working all day, every day in the operatory, like what are your top three tips for them to feel their best?
Spitz recommends a warm-up to activate the body, regular microbreaks that move and stretch compressed areas, and a recovery routine. He emphasizes strengthening the posterior chain and restoring movement rather than repeatedly stretching already lengthened muscles.
Ep 111: Dental Professionals: How To Exercise for a Pain-Free Career
Q: So what do you mean by that?
Spitz describes dental clinicians as precision athletes because their work requires deep body awareness, sustained focus and precise movements. He says a strength and conditioning approach can identify the demands of the work and prepare the body to handle them.
Ep 110: What Your Mouth Is Telling You About Your Health
Q: How can dental practices start integrating holistic health approaches in a time-constrained clinical setting?
Start with targeted intake questions about sleep, nutrition, and supplements, gradually add testing (e.g., vitamin D, saliva/oral microbiome tests), and build cross-referral networks with sleep specialists, functional medicine, and nutrition professionals to provide a broader health strategy.
