Mohamed is joined by The Dental Guys, Dr. Jon Rogers and Dr. Wes Mullins to talk about comprehensive dentistry.

The Dental Guys are an OG dental podcast who have been talking about high quality dentistry, research and data for years! Wes and Jon even joined Alan in the very first "podcast lounge" at the glorious (and very first) Voices of Dentistry in Nashville, TN!

This conversation goes all over the place and is part one of a two part series. Part two will be over on the Dental Guys podcast!

• What is comprehensive dentistry?
• Dental school and single tooth dentistry
• Comprehensive dentistry means different things to different people
• Comprehensive isn't about procedure competency, it's about understanding the big picture
• Etiology drives diagnosis
• Do people deserve the ideal plan?
• Is it possible for dental school to make you an excellent diagnostician?
• Understanding the fundamentals
• Where to start with comprehensive dentistry
• How will your first job affect your ability to learn and deliver comprehensive dentistry? (where, what kind of practice, demographics)
• Developing a niche (easier in a less saturated area?)
• Instagram dentistry: where are the hard cases?
• Not everyone deserves to be treated the same way (how are new patients brought in to the practice?)
• Coming soon: what are the strategies and paths to take in order to become a comprehensive dentist?
