OM DETTA AVSNITT
On this episode of the Disruptive Dental Science Podcast, host Dr. Ashton Prince (Chief Editor of DENTAL ADVISOR) interviews restorative dentist and continuing education leader Dr. Lee Ann Brady, who shares how dentists can improve their practice and build a supportive dental community via continuing education. Brady reviews her roles at the Pankey Institute and Spear Education and discusses the COVID shift toward online dental education, noting that programs have largely returned to in-person, hands-on learning because dentistry requires manual skill development, benchtop practice, and safer implementation before treating patients. She emphasizes the difference between topic-based courses (e.g., veneer prep, molar endodontics) and curriculum-based education that supports diagnosis, treatment planning, communication, practice systems, implementation, and integration, summarizing that “education without implementation is just entertainment.” Listen in to learn how continuing education improves dentist fulfillment, team culture, and patient trust.
