Very Dental: The 80/20 Rule of Dental Hygiene with Beth Parkes

Very Dental: The 80/20 Rule of Dental Hygiene with Beth Parkes
Alan welcomes Beth Parkes, a clinical dental hygienist and educator from Canada, to break down the evolving world of hygiene instrumentation. Beth challenges the common "ultrasonics-to-completion" mindset, advocating instead for a balanced marriage of 80% power scaling and 20% intricate hand instrumentation for optimal tactile feedback. The duo dives into the resurgence of guided biofilm visualization, the absolute game-changer that is the "Vision Butler" (hilariously rebranded as Spandex Advanced in the US) lip and cheek retractor, and the critical metallurgical differences between "sharpen-less" and truly "sharpen-free" hand instruments. Finally, Beth shares her strategic "making every tray count" system designed to streamline sterilization workflows, keep kits lean, and foster respect between practice owners and hygiene teams.

Very Clinical: 12 Crowns and $350K in Debt? Inside Modern Dental Education
This throwback episode from 2023 features Dr. Meylinda Meredith. Zach and Kevin welcome back special guest Meylinda, as they kick things off with some hilariously relatable (and occasionally creepy) bad neighbor stories. The conversation then shifts to the front lines of dental education, diving into the post-COVID realities of dental school, the controversial shift to pass/fail and typodont-based board exams, skyrocketing tuition costs, and the critical decline of clinical "reps" for incoming graduates.

Very Dental: Airway, Orthodontics and Omissions with Dr. Matt Standridge, part 2
The cliffhanger is paid off in this highly anticipated follow-up episode! Alan welcomes back Dr. Matt Standridge to finish their deep dive into the American Association of Orthodontists (AAO) controversial white paper on Sleep Disordered Breathing (SDB). Matt pulls back the curtain on the paper's actual citation list, exposing questionable sample sizes, misplaced reference numbers, and instances where the AAO’s conclusions directly contradict the very research they cited. From the true diagnostic value of CBCT scans to the data surrounding tongue ties, premolar extractions, and palatal expansion, this episode explores the standard of evidence-based medicine in modern orthodontics and highlights the massive opportunity ahead for practitioners willing to follow the science.

Very Dental: Airway, Orthodontics and Omissions with Dr. Matt Standridge, part 1
Alan is once again joined by podcast veteran Dr. Matt Standridge to dissect the American Association of Orthodontists' (AAO) controversial 2026 white paper on sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) and orthodontics. Together, they pull back the curtain on the document's surprising omissions—including a shrinking author panel that entirely removed sleep physicians—and critique its heavy, restrictive reliance on full polysomnography (PSG) as a gatekeeper for early pediatric intervention. Dr. Standridge highlights how the paper's narrow scope and questionable citations conflict with both well-established historical data and contemporary European medical guidelines, framing the white paper more as a defensive "CYA" document than a progressive guide for patient care.

Very Clinical: Is Academic Dentistry Better Than Private Practice?
This throwback episode from 2023 features Dr. Meylinda Meredith. Zach and Kevin sit down with Meylinda, a fellow UMKC dental school alumnus and current clinical faculty member teaching operative dentistry. They dive into a fascinating discussion comparing private practice associateships with a career in dental education, exploring everything from the perks of academic vacation time to the unique traits of Gen Z dental students and how "just-in-time" learning changes the way they absorb material. The trio also discusses the modern integration of digital scanning versus traditional PVS impressions in a dental school setting, before wrapping up with a fun round of UMKC dental trivia.

Reflecting on a , Alan breaks down the history of joint prophylaxis confusion—from the shotgun antibiotic approach of the 1990s to the frustratingly vague "case-by-case" guidelines of 2012 and 2017. He highlights the game-changing late-2024 AAOS/ADA update, which officially confirms that routine systemic antibiotics do not reduce the risk of periprosthetic joint infections. Alan shares his exact, blunt office protocol letter designed to push back against old-school surgeons who refuse to follow modern data, explains why patient safety and antibiotic stewardship must override legal fears Some links from the show: Join the using one of these passwords: Timmerman, Paul, Bioclear, Hornbrook, Gary, McWethy, Papa Randy, or Lipscomb!

Very Dental: "Super Flowables," Color Stability and the Bioclear Method with Dr. David Clark
Alan once again sits down with Dr. David Clark for a deep dive into a massive paradigm shift shaking up the Bioclear Method! Dave discusses the clinical realities driving the development of the new Tooth and Surface Specific (TSS) matrix system and drops a bombshell announcement: the wholesale transition away from legacy composites toward color-stable materials. They explore why whole-tooth restorations face severe color shifts over time, how new Japanese filler particle technologies from Kuraray and GC prevent these failures, and how the introduction of "super flowables" allows clinicians to completely skip paste composites for faster, stronger restorations. From specialized "Hershey's Kiss" Calla Lily burs to the physical mechanics of achieving a tight interproximal contact without packable materials, this episode is packed with game-changing clinical insights you cannot afford to miss.

Very Clinical: Very Rock and Roll, part 4
Zach, Kevin and Al have been tiptoeing around it for three episodes, but today we do a deep dive on the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame! The guys break down the highly secretive, two-step nomination process—debunking the illusion of the "fan vote"—and call out the historical genre biases that left iconic stadium rock, heavy metal, and progressive bands frozen out for decades. From debating the definition of "innovation" versus "commercial success" to throwing down over legendary snubs like The J. Geils Band, Weird Al, and INXS, this episode is a passionate, witty look at the politics, snobbery, and enduring legacy of the music that shapes our culture.

AME: The Disney Experience
In this episode, Alan returns from a high-stakes, five-day marathon chaperoning a high-school band trip to Orlando. Behind the magic of Disney venues, full-on recording sessions, and a 48-hour round-trip bus ride, he finds a fascinating study of human behavior under pressure. From Disney's multi-million-dollar mastery of the queue to a universal lack of spatial awareness on the park paths, Alan breaks down the massive operational scale of a resort employing 80,000 people. True to form, he bridges these observations directly back to the clinical environment—comparing the luxury of "zero-wait" scheduling to Disney’s paid Lightning Lanes, and exploring what happens to a clinician's empathy and patience when running on a low "body battery" and physical pain. It is an honest, humorous look at what a frantic trip to the Happiest Place on Earth can teach us about running a smooth practice and protecting our own resilience.

Very Dental: 12 Years in Podcasting, part 2
Celebrating his 12th anniversary in podcasting, host Dr. Alan Mead presents a special episode of The Very Dental Podcast featuring a re-release of the second installment of The Dental Hacks Podcast from June 2014. Dr. Mead kicks off the show by recalling how the original "cliffhanger" format originally drove a young Dr. Zach Meiners crazy, leading to a nostalgic and concurrent release of this payoff episode. The vintage episode continues the original show's signature style, combining a feature interview with a group "Brain Trust" discussion. The feature interview concludes with Dr. Lance Timmerman sharing his candid insights on incorporating sleep apnea treatment and medical insurance billing into a dental practice. The episode concludes with the second installment of the Brain Trust—featuring Dr. Jason Luchtefeld, Dr. Dawn Grimes, Dr. Tammy Bailey, and Dr. Andy Hayes—as they engage in a lively debate on the future of sleep medicine, dental school debt, and the rising tide of corporate dentistry.

Very Clinical: Very Rock and Roll, part 3
Welcome back to Very Clinical for "Rock and Roll, Part 3"—the latest installment of our ongoing, completely dentistry-free detour into the music that shaped our lives. In this episode, Zach, Kevin (aka: K-Rock), and Alan shift the spotlight away from the frontmen and look at the "corporate" machinery and unsung geniuses behind the greatest eras of pop and rock. We dive deep into the legendary collective of freelance studio masters in LA known as and Detroit’s incredibly prolific hit-makers, , revealing how some of the most definitive tracks of the 60s and 70s were actually built by daily session workers. From the carefully manufactured magic of "Corporate Rock" and the television-born crossover of The Monkees to the fine line between artistic theft and genuine innovation, we examine how the music industry built its most profitable formulas—and how those formulas repeatedly triggered counter-cultural rebellions like punk and grunge.

AME: Zen and the Art of Dental Hygiene

AME: Zen and the Art of Dental Hygiene
Alan discusses the unexpected clinical and relational insights discovered after a part-time hygienist's departure forced him to step back into the hygiene column. Challenging traditional dental consultant dogma that screams "dentists shouldn't do hygiene," Alan shares his four-month journey of slowing down to find the hidden, high-value ROI of performing his own preventive recalls. From capturing an unfiltered look at a patient’s raw baseline before a single tooth is polished, to uncovering the ultimate comprehensive exam under the lens of a dental microscope, he reveals how a low-anxiety, "no-shot" environment drastically deepens patient connection and naturally drives case acceptance. Alan also breaks down how he pairs high magnification with modern technology—specifically using the Heidi Health AI scribing app to seamlessly handle hands-free charting—to deliver an unmatched preventive experience rooted in genuine TLC. Whether you're navigating the turbulent modern hygiene labor market or just looking to reconnect with the foundational health of your practice, this episode offers a mindful, paradigm-shifting look at finding peace, presence, and production in the second column.

Very Dental: The Rise of the Dental Marketplace with Susan Cahill
Alan welcomes Susan Cahill, the Chief Operating Officer of Net32, to break down how the online marketplace model is fundamentally reshaping how dental practices buy supplies. Moving away from the traditional, often opaque sales rep model, Susan explains how Net32 acts as a transparent intermediary where over a hundred vendors actively compete for your practice's business. They dive into the crucial differences between a niche professional marketplace and giant consumer platforms like Amazon, how macro shifts like inflation and post-COVID operational changes have accelerated digital adoption in dentistry, and how reclaiming just 30 minutes of inventory management a week can instantly impact your bottom line. Whether you are looking to slash overhead or simply eliminate the friction of supply lists and browser tabs, this conversation offers a refreshing look at the data-driven future of dental procurement.

Very Clinical: Bevels, Bonds, and Sleep Apnea Red Flags
In this episode, the guys dive deep into the multifactorial nature of noncarious cervical lesions (NCCLs). Moving past outdated single-cause theories like pure toothbrush abrasion or simple nighttime grinding, the discussion shifts toward a comprehensive look at systemic triggers, specifically the massive role of airway issues and sleep apnea. The hosts debate the intersecting impact of clenching, acid erosion, and periodontal biotypes, sharing their practical clinical approaches to desensitizing protocols, the realities of enamel-bevel bonding, and knowing exactly when it's time to skip the composite and upgrade to a crown.

AME: The Shame Drawer
In this episode of the Alan Mead Experience, Alan faces down a long-hidden clinical shortcoming: his "shame drawer" of inadequate patient charting. Transitioning from a clunky paper-digital hybrid system, Alan discusses how AI-driven dictation and medical scribes are revolutionizing clinical documentation by delivering flawless, detailed notes in a fraction of the time. From discussing the legal and ethical obligations of patient privacy and Business Associate Agreements (BAAs) to confronting the psychological hurdles of the "avoidance loop" in dentistry, this episode is a candid look at overcoming the friction of change. Along the way, Alan shares updates on his upcoming high school band trip to Disney World, thoughts on creepy new AI video avatars, and a reminder of why we should probably all just use the rubber dam more often.

In this episode of Group Function, Alan connects with fellow Michiganders Austin and Lindsay Ritter, the husband-and-wife team behind Ascentcare Dental Products. Austin shares his unique journey from an HR background to dental product innovation, inspired by casual, after-hours brainstorming sessions with a dentist neighbor.

Alan explores his recent deep dive into hardware-based AI recorders like the Plaud AI and HiDock P1. He details how he successfully utilized the HiDock to transcribe and organize a school chaperone meeting, before tackling the elephant in the room for medical professionals: the high cost of compliant AI scribing software. Alan breaks down why medical AI solutions carry a premium price tag, pointing directly to the legal and liability protections of Business Associate Agreements (BAAs) and the necessity of immediate data deletion for HIPAA compliance.

Group Function: Reclaiming the "C" Word: Fixing the Reputation of Dental Consulting
In this episode of the Group Function podcast, Alan sits down with Joe Chickerillo and Lana Rivera to recap an incredible Chicago Midwinter meeting and dive deep into why the word "consultant" feels broken in modern dentistry. Joe shares his "first and only" philosophy for evaluating tech startups and disruptive ideas, while Lana leverages her 20+ years of industry experience to unpack the critical anatomy of team buy-in and breaking through professional glass ceilings. Together, they pull back the curtain on the Academy of Dental Management Consultants (ADMC). Far from a rigid, one-size-fits-all network, the ADMC operates as a vetted mastermind of niche experts—spanning financial strategy, team culture, marketing, and technology. Whether you are a practitioner looking for a safe space to solve precise practice bottlenecks or an entrepreneur seeking a cure for the loneliness of the road, this conversation proves why the right collaborative network is the ultimate cheat code for moving the profession forward.

Very Clinical: Very Rock and Roll, part 1
In this special, off-topic feature of the Very Clinical Podcast, hosts Zach and Kevin trade dental bonding agent chat for guitars and grit. They welcome Alan to kick off a multi-part series on the cultural endurance of rock and roll music. Inspired by Alan’s recent trip to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, the trio dives deep into Kevin's theory of the "grocery store enigma"—the bizarre phenomenon of why 50-year-old classic rock from the 60s, 70s, and 80s still completely dominates grocery stores, dental offices, and sports stadiums today. The guys debate the historical shifts in music distribution, the massive consumer bubble of the Baby Boomer generation, and why these track-driven "comfort foods" with unforgettable hooks have outlasted vintage television and physical albums. From the universal sing-along power of "Sweet Caroline" to the dark, paradigm-shifting arrival of 90s grunge, this episode uncovers why classic rock remains an immortal force in modern culture.

Alan sits down with George Khoury, VP of Enterprise Sales at Net32, to discuss the evolution of the dental supply industry. Drawing on his 30-year career—spanning the early days of digital X-rays at Schick to nearly two decades at Henry Schein—George provides a candid look at why the traditional "high-touch" sales rep model is facing significant pressure. They explore how Net32 functions as a transparent marketplace, empowering independent "mom and pop" practices to access the same pricing advantages and catalog variety as large DSOs. The conversation highlights the shift toward tech-driven efficiency, the importance of price transparency, and how clinicians can reclaim control over their practice’s overhead without being tied to a single distributor.

In this throwback episode from 2023 Alan revisits a long-standing "chip on his shoulder": the persistent and often unscientific demand for antibiotic premedication in joint replacement patients. Sparked by his own wife’s hip surgery, Alan dives into the disconnect between evidence-based ADA/AAOS guidelines and the "premedicate for life" culture maintained by many orthopedic surgeons. With his signature wit and candid frustration, he explores the risks of antibiotic resistance, the myth of dental-induced bacteremia, and the awkward "middle man" position patients are forced into when dental and surgical philosophies collide.

AME: Caries Anonymous
Alan recovers from a Mother’s Day brunch—feeling a bit like a boa constrictor that swallowed a goat—to discuss a profound connection between the worlds of 12-step recovery and clinical dentistry. Drawing on his 24 years of recovery, Alan explores the "spiritual principles" of honesty, open-mindedness, and willingness, and how they apply to patients struggling with rampant tooth decay. He shares a refreshing story of a patient who, instead of blaming "soft teeth" or genetics for runaway caries, took total ownership of his Mountain Dew habit. From the isolation caused by social media to the unexpected revelations from Alan picking up hygiene shifts in his own office, this episode challenges the dental community to look at "lifestyle diseases" through the lens of personal accountability and radical honesty.

VC: The Changing of Very Clinical Minds

VC: The Changing of Very Clinical Minds
This throwback episode from May 2024 brings together Zach, Kevin and Al for a candid look at how their clinical philosophies have evolved over decades of practice. From the baseball diamonds of the Midwest to the operatory, the guys dive into the "then vs. now" of daily dentistry. They tackle the shift from buried subgingival margins to biology-first placement, the transition from "last resort" handpiece extractions to proactive sectioning, and how digital workflows have turned "hail Mary" saves into predictable, high-level care. It’s a deep dive into the materials, tech, and hard-earned lessons that change how a dentist sees the mouth (and the refrigerator).

AME: The Evolution of Online Reviews
Alan explores the shifting landscape of digital reputation, from the "gold rush" era of 2018 to the current state of consumer skepticism and review fatigue. He dives into how online feedback has largely replaced traditional SEO and Yellow Pages for dental marketing, specifically through its influence on the Google "three-pack." He balances his perspective as a practice owner—noting how automated systems like Podium drive high call volumes—against his skepticism as a consumer, highlighting how the system can be gamed through professional reviewers and paid removal services. The episode serves as a candid look at whether the influence of online reviews has peaked and how modern practices navigate the deluge of automated patient communication.

AME Redux: Mental Hygiene and the Outrage Machine with Dr. Dawn Grimes
In this throwback episode Alan and Dr. Dawn Grimes explore the unexpected parallels between physical and mental decluttering. Starting with the simple, visceral satisfaction of a "dump run," the conversation pivots to the "self-administered poison" of modern media. Alan shares his recent transition to a three-day clinical work week and the surprising discovery that has changed his morning routine: the silent commute. By trading outrage-driven podcasts for quiet reflection, he discusses how to combat the "morning scaries" and set a more intentional tone for the day. From the psychology of remembering patient names to the discipline of taking responsibility for one’s own mood, this episode is a candid look at protecting your headspace in a high-stress profession.
