In this episode, I share my experiences attending two significant dental conferences this month: the National Mobile and Teledentistry Conference (Denobi Awards) and the Special Care Dental Association (SCDA) meeting. At the National Mobile and Teledentistry Conference, it was a privilege to be nominated for a Denobi and to connect with various professionals who are passionate about mobile dental services. I highlight meeting a podcast listener inspired to start her own mobile practice and the accomplishments of award winners in this field. At the SCDA meeting, I gained insights into the specialized care of patients with unique needs, ranging from older adults to medically complex cases.  Despite the valuable information, I raise concerns about the focus on state-sponsored healthcare and the barriers private dentists face with Medicaid. I also discuss a mobile dental franchise model and its surprisingly cheap startup costs. To support those wanting to venture into mobile dentistry, I also discuss the Dental House Call Practice Academy, my online course designed to guide dentists through starting their own house-call practice. Attending such conferences is crucial for professional growth, networking, and staying updated on new materials and clinical techniques. I encourage listeners to mark their calendars and consider participating in these events to enhance their knowledge and connections next year! Join Me For Office HoursFree Master Class Open Enrollment For Dental House Call Practice Academy Visit me at: ResiDENTAL Movement WebsiteVisit: AccommoDentalVisit: Home Smile Care Foundation Let’s Get Social:InstagramFacebookLinkedIn Produced by: Social Chameleon
