Is there a difference between the two?  Turns out the answer is YES!  We had a relay race-type conversation with influencers and we uncovered some of the secret sauce to getting and retaining legit followers. We invited Drs. Tara Aboumahboub, Abdullah Abdelaziz, Faraj Edher and Sunny Virdi to share their respective journeys to influence, what peaks their interest and what brings on a big ‘ol eye roll as they scroll through “the gram”. These influencers have very different approaches to their social media yet have some things in common.    Instagram:  @dentara__  @dmdsunny  @futuredentists  @drfarajedher    Some of their faves:   @refinedentistry  @influencedentistry  @wearfigs

We all see the complicated and gorgeous restorations on social media and we wanted to discuss if more layers are better when placing anterior direct restorations. We invited Dr. Peter Auster to share his perspective, opinion, and a few pearls on how to achieve AACD-level direct restorations on anterior teeth. So many dentists self-label themselves as “cosmetic dentists” and we talk about who should and who shouldn’t classify themselves that way.
