The Dr. Phil Klein Dental Podcast Show

One of the common procedures we do as dentists is remove teeth. And for most us, it's a fairly routine procedure. But with more research on the topic of tooth extraction and the extraction site itself, and how it all relates to implants, we're learning that minimizing the trauma to the surgical site is of utmost importance. To tell us more about this is Dr. Isaac Tawil. Dr Tawil received his Diplomate from the International Academy of Dental Implantology. He is a graduate of NYU Dental School and practices in Brooklyn NY. Thanks to our episode sponsors: GC America - https://www.gc.dental/ NSK America - https://www.nskdental.com/

Only a year ago, Dr. Miles Cone, a respected prosthodontist and educator, made the big leap from analog to digital dentistry. It could be argued that he's entered the game a little late, but for years he resisted, based on a number of preconceived ideas about the kind of practice that actually needs and should have a digital dental practice. But once he entered into digital dentistry, everything changed. To tell us about his journey, why it happened and how it completely transformed his life is our guest, Dr Miles Cone. In addition to achieving board certification within his specialty of prosthodontics, Dr. Cone is also a Certified Dental Technician.
