For private practitioners, dentistry is a gentle balancing act between providing safe and quality oral healthcare, and running a business based on other people’s wellbeing, including their own and that of their staff. A business is always a business, and healthcare is always healthcare, which means it’s crucial that patients understand the investment that goes on behind the scenes of a private dental practice when questioning why a dental appointment is so expensive.
In a world that’s so used to moving fast, it is becoming increasingly important to know when and where to slow down. And dentistry just so happens to be one of those areas – thanks to the global phenomenon Slow Dentistry that has gained popularity in over 50 countries worldwide. I know what you’re thinking: why would patients want to spend any longer than they already have to at their dentist? Let’s discuss why.
I’m excited to share that I’ll be speaking at the Yankee Study Club Fall 2024, and I’d love for you to join me for Session 1 on September 4th, where I’ll be leading the webinar “Advanced Treatment Planning for Integrative Dental Health”.

In recent years, the medical community has made significant strides in understanding the intricate connections between oral health and overall systemic health. However, as we delve deeper into this crucial relationship, it’s becoming increasingly clear that we’ve only scratched the surface.
I was recently invited to participate in the FDI Dental Check-up podcast, hosted by Kelly Hoey and alongside dental student, Sanika Shorey, where the spotlight is focused on all things dentistry and health, where oral healthcare is discussed openly and passionately.
Staying at the forefront of innovation and patient care requires passion, dedication and a commitment to learning and mentorship.

I founded Slow Dentistry in 2015 with one important goal in mind: advance the standards of oral healthcare worldwide, while building trust with patients. How? By providing a work ethic and cornerstones that benefit everyone.
