On today's episode, Dr. Mark Costes welcomes back Dr. Brandon Chapek for a deeper dive into the mindset, discipline, and values that have shaped his journey from Division I football player to high-level dental surgeon. In this conversation, Brandon shares how his athletic background influenced his time management, work ethic, and leadership style—and how those lessons now serve his growing dental practice and young family. They also discuss clinical pearls for general dentists getting into wisdom tooth surgery, post-op complications, case selection strategies, and the benefits of IV sedation. Brandon opens up about his reasons for not pursuing a surgical specialty and how his surgical fellowship prepared him to scale his practice profitably and sustainably. This one's all about growth, grit, and intentional living.
