Dr. John Graeber and Dr. Artie Volker join the Dental Hacks to talk about the history and practice of "Minimally Invasive Dentistry." Dr. Graeber has spent a career teaching many minimally invasive modalities and we discuss them in depth!  John's new textbook (with a chapter by Artie) is called  "Microinvasive Dentistry: Clinical Strategies and Tools" Why write a textbook? What are the pitfalls of the dental handpiece? How does earlier diagnosis help us avoid the dental handpiece? Air abrasion since 1993 What do dentists misunderstand about "minimally invasive dentistry?" Objective diagnosis vs. subjective diagnosis John is a fan of the  Carivu and the Ortek-ECD Having a specific room for diagnosis Air abrasion NEEDS water! Air embolisms...good times! Lasers to differentiate your practice from others! The Academy of Laser Dentistry Find a group of "real colleagues" The American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry Why get the book?

Learn more at https://yapiapp.com/online-scheduling You remember in dental school in your biomaterials class. It was the chapter after amalgam. They talked about composites. Different types of composites have different characteristics depending on particle size, etc. Ohhh...that's right. It seems like all you ever hear about composites is "universal." But let's be honest, one size does NOT fit all! If you do any anterior composite work, you really need a microfill! Microfilled composites like Cosmedent's Renamel microfill handle really nicely, have gorgeous translucency and polish like a dream. If it's been awhile since you've used microfill, you owe it to yourself to give it a try again! Our friend and mentor Buddy Mopper was right! Don't dumb down composites to just one type! Get yourself a microfill and see what a difference it makes. It comes in syringes AND compules and I guarantee you'll find a bunch of great uses for it! Check it out at dentalhacks.com/microfill!
