The Very Dental Podcast Network Very Clinical: How to Integrate Technology with Scott Shrader
Kevin and Zach, along with Alan welcome Scott Shrader from 3D Dentists to the podcast! Scott shares his journey from general sales into dental implant and equipment sales. Now part of the 3D Dentist team, Scott focuses on partnerships and the technology division, guiding dentists through the complexities of selecting and implementing digital tools like scanners, printers, and software.
The conversation dives into the practicalities of bringing new digital technology into a dental practice. Key themes include overcoming the fear of rapid obsolescence (highlighting how software updates extend hardware life), the importance of having a clear implementation plan to avoid team frustration, and tailoring the approach—whether it's adopting 3D printing, in-house design software like Exocad, or outsourcing—to fit the specific practice's goals, volume, and team capabilities.
