AME: Unprompted
Broadcasting from a shady Michigan porch alongside an overly affectionate cat, Alan details his first clinical experiences integrating biofilm guided hygiene protocols into practice. From navigating setup quirks to pairing Ivoclar's OptraGate with Zirc's disposable Mr. Thirsty bite block, he shares how combining disclosing agents with air polishing completely shifts the prophylaxis experience. The real turning point? Receiving completely unprompted, glowing reactions from patients—including his son Sean—raving that their teeth had never felt so smooth. Alan also explores his microscope recording workflow and breaks down a remarkably simple, inexpensive video editing utility called LosslessCut that makes trimming clinical footage painless.

Dr. Peter Boulden and Dr. Craig Spodak (hosts of the Bulletproof Dental Practice Podcast) sit down with DSO attorney Brian Colao of Dykema for a candid debate on the shifting landscape of dentistry. Brian lays out a blunt reality check on consolidation, private equity, and the mechanics of DSOs, explaining why traditional practice transitions are facing unprecedented disruption. Together, they break down EBITDA multiples, rollover equity, and what the rapid rise of multi-specialty group practices means for solo practitioners navigating the future of the profession.

Very Dental: AI with Arms and Legs with Dr. Richard Low

Very Dental: AI with Arms and Legs with Dr. Richard Low
Alan is joined by longtime friend and dental podcasting veteran Dr. Richard Low. Moving past the initial hype and overwhelm of modern artificial intelligence, Richard breaks down how dentists and small business owners can actually put AI to work as a tangible personal assistant—giving it "arms and legs." The conversation covers the highs and lows of dental practice ownership, recovery, avoiding the trap of social media doomscrolling, and why downloading local AI desktop apps (ChatGPT and Claude) beats using browser tabs every time. Key Topics Discussed Podcast Origins & Practice Scaling: Richard shares his journey from founding Shared Practices to scaling a 35-location DSO group, the burnout and personal toll of rapid multi-practice ownership, and his new focus with Next Level Dentist. Accountability & Wellness: How physical fitness and men's accountability groups serve as a gateway to tackling burnout, addiction, and emotional avoidance in dentistry. Taming Digital Distractions: Voice dictation workflows using WhisperFlow and the appeal of tactile, low-distraction hardware like the Clicks Communicator. AI with "Arms and Legs": Why desktop versions of Claude (Claude Code) and ChatGPT (Codex) outperform browser interfaces by interacting directly with local .md markdown files and project folders. Practical AI Workflows: Real-world use cases, including bank recipient entries, flight research, customized project management apps, and spreadsheet bookkeeping reconciliation for organizations. Curing "AI Mania": Cutting through the noise of complex multi-agent fleets and subscription fatigue by focusing on simple, repeatable "skills" that solve genuine everyday bottlenecks.

AME: Talking Myself Off the Ledge
In this throwback episode of The Alan Mead Experience, Alan dives into the universal struggle every clinician faces: the days (or weeks) when it feels like everything you touch falls apart and imposter syndrome sets in. Drawing from an insightful thread in the Very Dental Facebook community, Alan discusses navigating clinical failure, managing patient expectations, and the vital role of peer support. He also shares a candid story about an emergency root canal case that spiraled into clinical self-doubt—until an unexpected twist revealed the real issue at hand. Episode Highlights & Takeaways The Reality of Clinical Funk: Every dentist experiences runs of tough cases—missed canals, separated root tips, or persistent post-op pain. Acknowledging that bad outcomes happen even with perfect technique is key to maintaining mental health. Insights from the Very Dental Community: Perspectives on clinical perfectionism, managing complications in-person rather than over the phone, and leaning on colleagues rather than suffering in isolation. Quick Clinical Tip: How Dr. Mead uses Ivoclar’s Adhese Universal (VivaPen) as a reliable chairside solution for exposed dentin and post-operative hypersensitivity. The Root Canal Gone Wrong (Or Did It?): Alan details an emergency endo case on a lower second molar that caused days of anxiety over potential perforation and failure, only to find out the situation was driven by drug-seeking behavior rather than a botched procedure. The Importance of Case Selection & Boundaries: Learning when to refer, recognizing red flags early, and giving yourself grace when cases don't go as planned.

Very Dental: Losing My Practice and Saving My Life with Dr. Tiffany Paiva
Dr. Tiffany Paiva joins Alan for a deeply candid conversation about addiction, professional burnout, and the emotional toll of practice ownership. From overcoming a prescription opioid dependency sparked during dental school to navigating staff crises, embezzlement, and a practice closure, Dr. Paiva shares the raw reality behind the facade of clinical success. Now championing connection over comparison, she discusses how letting go of dentistry as an exclusive identity allowed her to heal—and how her new platform, DentorMatch, is helping dental professionals fight loneliness and burnout through peer mentorship.

Alan Mead welcomes Southern California cosmetic and biomimetic dentist Dr. Matt Nejad. Matt shares his career journey—from buying a modest two-chair practice straight out of dental school to run his own self-directed "residency" in meticulous care, to becoming part of an aspirational practice in Beverly Hills. The two dive into the core philosophy of biomimetic restorative dentistry, the power of intentionality and rubber dam isolation, and why saving natural teeth with selective caries removal and vital pulp therapy should be prioritized over rushing to implants or root canals. Plus, they discuss the ergonomic and clinical edge of LM-Dental's non-reflective Dark Diamond instruments (distributed in the US by Garrison Dental) and meet Dr. Nejad's mini Goldendoodle service-dog-in-training!

Very Dental: Making the Case for Going Rural with Dr. Dave Whitlock
This throwback episode features a great conversation with Dr. Dave Whitlock! They discuss the unique opportunities, lifestyle perks, and financial benefits of practicing dentistry in rural communities. Having transitioned from high-competition, high-cost metro markets like Phoenix and Dallas to rural Eastern Kentucky, Dr. Whitlock shares how moving away from urban saturation allowed him to lower his living costs, reduce practice overhead, and secure an overwhelming demand for dental care. Together, they break down common misconceptions surrounding rural dentistry, discuss the overwhelming student debt burden facing new graduates, and highlight how stepping off the beaten path can offer clinicians better schedule flexibility, greater practice profitability, and an improved quality of life.

Very Clinical: Dr. Sully Sullivan on Replacing Yourself
In this throwback episode of the Very Clinical Podcast, Zach and Kevin welcome back Dr. Sully Sullivan from Nashville, Tennessee. Sully shares the unique origin story of the 3D Dentists Mastermind, which began when he and Hootan stepped in to help run a course in Texas after Dr. T-Bone had a family emergency. He breaks down the Mastermind's core philosophy: dentists must learn to "replace themselves" to overcome bandwidth limitations and allow their practices to grow. A major focus of the group is shifting away from single-tooth fixes to comprehensive dentistry in order to execute fewer, well-planned visits. To achieve this, the program mandates DSLR photography for every new patient and relies heavily on group accountability through peer text threads.

Group Function: Decoding DSOs with Dr. Mark Costes & Dr. Paul Etchison

Group Function: Decoding DSOs with Dr. Mark Costes & Dr. Paul Etchison
In this throwback episode of the Group Function Podcast, Alan Mead sits down with two titans of dental podcasting: Dr. Mark Costes and Dr. Paul Etchison! Together they decode the rapidly evolving world of Dental Service Organizations (DSOs). They break down complex industry jargon like EBITDA, recapitalization, and same-store growth, making it easily digestible for independent practice owners. The trio explores the transition from the initial wave of practice consolidation to the modern, highly discerning private equity landscape. Between dropping heavy business knowledge, they also take a nostalgic detour to reminisce about feral 1970s and 80s childhoods, riding bikes until sundown, and the ultimate debate: Star Wars versus He-Man. Mark and Paul use quite a few terms that you might not be 100% familiar with. I had heard them kicked around, but before the conversation starts, I list a couple definitions that you might find helpful: DSO: Simply put, DSO stands for Dental Service Organization. A DSO is a company that helps administer the business aspects (management, marketing and business administration) of the dental practice. EBITA: EBITA stands for "Earnings Before Interest, Taxes and Amoritization." It is a measure of profitability that a potential investor can use to evaluate a potential company or practice. It's used help make "apples to apples" comparisons between potential investments. EBITA is calculated from financial data reported by a company. Many DSOs valuate dental practices as a multiple of their EBITA. same store growth (or same store sales): a measure of growth used by a DSO to know how well an individual practice within the DSO is doing. A DSO will want to know how well the individual practice is doing vs. the entire DSOs growth. The idea is to invest in a practice that has potential to grow in it's own location separate from its relationship to the whole DSO. Private equity (or PE): a type of investment where investors buy shares of privately-held businesses. Private equity is the money supply that has driven the DSO revolution in dentistry (and many other industries). Private equity money expects a return on their investment much like any investor would. Recapitalization (aka: recapitalization event): "the second bite at the apple" according to Mark and Paul. Recapitalization is the restructuring of a company's debt and equity mixture, and/or financing. This is usually done to stabilize a company's capital structure. In the context of a DSO, recapitalization might be the sale of a smaller DSO/group to a larger one and/or the buying out of dental owners.

AME: The "After This..." Trap
Recorded straight from the front porch of the farm, Alan reflects on the relief—and the sudden realization—that comes after hosting a massive high school graduation party for his son, Sean. Surrounded by the ambient sounds of wind chimes and ducks, Alan explores the "Arrival Fallacy" (or Destination Fallacy): the psychological trap of using a major calendar milestone as an excuse to put the rest of your life on hold. From neglected summer bike rides to delayed office tasks, Alan unpacks why we tend to pause our daily routines for big events and challenges listeners to stop waiting for the calendar to clear before living their lives.

Very Dental Classics: Finesse, Panache, Elan with Dr. Bart Schultz
In this throwback episode of the Very Dental Podcast, Alan sits down with his long-time friend and dental school classmate, Dr. Bart Schultz, for a wide-ranging, candid conversation that blends nostalgia with clinical reality. Celebrating their entry into the 50-year-old club, the duo reflects on the evolution of their careers from green, baby-faced associates to seasoned clinicians. They swap unforgettable stories from the trenches, ranging from a "barbaric" old-school practice that recycled extracted teeth as autograft pontics to the historical misuses of Miracle Mix as a permanent restorative material. The heart of the episode explores the profound breakdown in patient communication—analyzing why patients frequently lose track of complex treatment plans and how shifting terminology from "root canal" to "tooth disinfection" can dramatically improve patient comfort and comprehension. Finally, the two dive into clinical insights surrounding predictable sinus lifts, the true cost of full-arch clear-cut procedures, and finding professional sanity outside the high-volume insurance grind.

AME: The Averages

AME: The Averages
Alan discusses the distinct economic realities of general dentistry, focusing on why the industry relies almost exclusively on a traditional flat-fee structure rather than complexity-based or hourly pricing. While individual clinical procedures exist on a vast continuum—ranging from effortless five-minute wins to grueling, unpredictable clinical nightmares—general practitioners routinely charge the exact same fee for both extremes. Alan breaks down how profitability structurally relies on "the averages," where highly efficient, straightforward procedures inevitably subsidize the time-consuming and difficult cases. The episode explores the unique consumer pressures of dentistry that mandate this setup: unlike the bureaucratic insulation of medicine, dentists are required to provide transparent, upfront financial estimates to patients navigating static insurance maximums. Ultimately, Alan challenges the status quo of the standard fee schedule, opening a debate on whether independent practice owners should implement tiered pricing models for high-complexity cases or simply accept the math of the middle.

AME: The Rise of the Instant Expert

AME: The Rise of the Instant Expert
Alan gets real about a major pet peeve that’s been festering on his Instagram feed: the rise of the "sobriety influencer." Celebrating over 24 years of clean time himself, Alan breaks down why the highly curated, aesthetic world of online recovery culture—full of sunny morning routines, mocktails, and six-month "experts"—feels completely detached from the gritty, anonymous reality of church basements and smoky bingo halls. He then flips the camera onto the dental world, revealing the exact same "pink cloud" script being run by young, inexperienced dental influencers. From flawless 12-unit veneer highlights to performative vulnerability, Alan tackles the toxic comparison culture of social media, the danger of the "instant expert," and why real clinical excellence requires the one thing you can't shortcut: actual, long-term experience.

Very Clinical: Walking Away to Win with Dr. Randy Houska
In this throwback episode from the 2023 Voices of Dentistry summit in Scottsdale, Arizona, Kevin and Zach sit down with "Papa Randy" himself, Dr. Randy Houska. The South Dakota solo practitioner shares his rogue dental journey before diving deep into classic patient myths—including the persistent tale of babies "sucking the calcium" out of a mother's teeth and wisdom teeth causing orthodontic relapse. Plus, Dr. Houska delivers a pro tip on dealing with stubborn upper first molars, prompting a great debate on when to walk away for a hygiene check and when to start sectioning.

AME: Endpoints

AME: Endpoints
Alan kicks off the July 4th holiday week by diving into the psychological relief of "hard endpoints" in dentistry. From the binary satisfaction of an extraction to the gamified progress bar of using disclosing solution during hygiene, he contrasts these clean wins with the existential anxiety of restorative work—like chasing deep caries or dropping crown margins on a difficult second molar. But in a twist of ultimate podcasting irony, the dental gods decide to test his philosophy mid-recording. After literally just cementing a crown on a patient with limited opening, Alan returns to the microphone to reveal that the crown shifted, leaving an open margin. What follows is a raw, honest, and comforting look at perfectionism, imposter syndrome, and why real-world dentists have to give themselves a break when the finish line turns into a truce.

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.
