The Dental Head Start Podcast

Welcome to What I Wish I Knew by Dental Head Start. This is a podcast where we learn from people that have been there, made the mistakes, learnt the lessons and have developed into the accomplished dental professionals they are today. It’s your weekly mentoring session. Hosted by Dr Graeme Pearson They say the learning never stops, which is where CPD (aka Continued Professional Development) allows us to expand our skillset and learn new perspectives and techniques in treatment.

Welcome to What I Wish I Knew by Dental Head Start. This is a podcast where we learn from people that have been there, made the mistakes, learnt the lessons and have developed into the accomplished dental professionals they are today. It’s your weekly mentoring session. Hosted by Dr Cigdem Kipel Being an operative dentist is the obvious career path after dental school, but it’s far from being the only option.  In this podcast, Dr Rohan Krishnan explains why dentists are uniquely qualified to work in non-operative roles such as governance, education, non-profit organisations and other professional and regulatory bodies.  He challenges us to explore how we can apply ourselves in an alternative capacity; perhaps as an advisor, board member, educator, committee organiser or executive, to unlock opportunities to do greater good and create true impact beyond our individual patients.  Not only is Dr Krishnan a successful dentist and practice owner, he is the vice president of ADA NSW, Chairman of the “Filling the Gap” organization and a board member of the Australian Dental Council.  Tune in to hear about his journey beyond the drill. Dr Rohan Krishnan Dr Rohan Krishnan is a General Dentist and practice owner in West Pymble, NSW. He is the current Vice President of ADA NSW where he is also a board member and councillor, Chair of the Board of Directors for “Filling the Gap” and a board member of the Australian Dental Council.  Rohan is an Honorary Clinical Associate Lecturer at The University of Sydney and has recently completed a MScMedicine in the field of Orofacial Pain Management. He is also a Graduate of the Australia Institute of Company Directors and a Fellow of the Pierre Fauchard Academy.

Hosted by Erica Hwin When was the last time you sat back and asked yourself, “What are my dreams, and what kind of person do I want to become?” I think as students and new grads, it’s so easy to be lost when all our lives, we’ve always had some sort of curriculum to follow. However, the day we graduate, it’s the first time we have to really decide for ourselves what happens next. In this episode, we dive into the importance of dreaming big, how this influences our happiness and career fulfilment, and how to go about finding that spark.

Welcome to What I Wish I Knew by Dental Head Start. This is a podcast where we learn from people that have been there, made the mistakes, learnt the lessons and have developed into the accomplished dental professionals they are today. It’s your weekly mentoring session. Hosted by Erica Hwin In an industry where we are almost geared to constantly pursue excellence and success, where we are often isolated in our practice and where the is an expectation to maintain our cool in front of patients, perhaps it’s no surprise that it forms the perfect breeding ground for burnout. But what exactly is burnout, and what can we do to prevent it? In this episode, we’re joined the Dr Kaejenn Tchia who is The Limitless Dentist. Dr Kaejenn runs his own Facebook and Instagram page where he openly shares his experience with burnout as a recent grad and he uses his platform to regularly share tips on practicing mental well-being. At DHS, we have always been advocates for mental health and we’re so glad to be able to dive into it in this episode to break down what burnout is, what causes it and Dr Kaejenn’s Top 4 tips on how to avoid it. For an industry that is so tight-knit, I really hope this helps us open up the discussion to talk about our shared experiences on a topic we all inevitably go through.  Dr Kaejenn Tchia A born and bred Territorian, Dr Kaejenn Tchia knew he wanted to be a dentist since high school.

Welcome to What I Wish I Knew by Dental Head Start. This is a podcast where we learn from people that have been there, made the mistakes, learnt the lessons and have developed into the accomplished dental professionals they are today. It’s your weekly mentoring session. Hosted by Dr Cigdem Kipel Ever heard of verti-preps? There was no mention of it in my dental school. But Dr Bez Shokouhi wishes he’d learned about it earlier in his career because it’s a game changer for the way he approaches some heavily damaged teeth.  Basically, it’s a type of crown preparation that has NO horizontal margin, meaning you can preserve a lot more tooth structure. This is possible thanks to properties of materials like zirconia that can perform well with a knife edge margin. Verti-preps allow for the creation of more subgingival ferrule and salvaging of teeth deemed otherwise unrestorable by traditional restorability standards. Dr Bez Shokouhi Dr Bez Shokouhi attained his Bachelor of Dental Surgery with first-class Honours in 2006 from King’s College London. He is a Member of the Faculty of Dental Surgeons and the Joint Dental Faculties of the Royal College of Surgeons of England. He has also completed 2 further university degrees, the King’s College London Postgraduate Diploma in Aesthetic Dentistry, and the University of Sydney Graduate Diploma in Dental Implants, plus a ridiculous number of other courses and seminars. Bez is passionate about dentistry and is an ever-learner, a tinkerer and an experimenter by nature, and as such he finds himself constantly innovating ways to tweak and improve his dentistry. He practices the full gamut of dentistry including complex restorative and aesthetic dentistry, orthodontics, oral surgery, and dental implants. He has been involved in teaching at King’s College London and University of Sydney and is an examiner for the University of Sydney Graduate Diploma in Dental Implants. Bez is a mentor to many young dentists who regularly reach out to him online and visit him at his practice on the Northern Beaches for observation. Bez runs a popular Facebook page (Dentistry by Dr Bez Shokouhi) and Instagram page (@dr.bez.shokouhi) where he regularly posts detailed step-by-step dentistry cases.
