The Dental Hacks Podcast

Alan is joined by Dr. Matt Standridge. Matt is a dentist in Kansas who teaches orthodontics and has his own podcast and health coaching program! Matt has had a really interesting journey over the last 10 years that Al has known him. He's bought multiple practices, become digital and became a well known educator. It's a nostalgic walk through the history of the podcast (Matt was early money as a Brain Trust guest) and how dentistry has changed over the last decade or so. Matt offers his thoughts on the differences between "comprehensive orthodontics" and cosmetic orthodontics and why it's OK to not always do comprehensive. He also talks about the fundamentals vs. the tools (aligners and brackets/wires) and why the fundamentals always win that argument.
