I am a (recovering) perfectionist.

Although this is one of my favourite cases (and patients 🤫) from the last year, when I look back and reflect I see things I could have done differently. Because of that I often look past the great result, and forget to feel proud of the change we made for this patient.

It’s so lovely to receive a review like this to put things in perspective.

This is one of the lessons I am continuously trying to reinforce from Dr Lincoln Harris and Colin Campbell The Campbell Academy

Perfectionism is lonely, demoralising and joy stealing. Aim for the shared joy of excellence instead

How to remove old crowns efficiently?

Busy couple of days
Monday morning; 7 crown preps and impressions for 17 implant units (one patient)
This morning; 11 crown preps (one patient)

Removing old crowns efficiently is super important for these big cases, and there are ways to make sure you’re not spending forever doing it.
1. New burs. Don’t mess about with old dull burs, I got through 5-10 burs in each session (from packet to bin)
2. Diamond burs for porcelain
3. Tungsten carbide burs for metal

These 3 things will make a huge difference! Bonus point; electric speed increasing handpiece

was so formative for me because of the emphasis on failure.

Not just before and afters. Gritty full cases showcasing honest dentistry.

It was so important to me as a young dentist, and I am honoured to be a speaker at this event, carrying on the tradition of talking about the uncomfortable stuff. Please sign up to the waitlist, I’d love to see you there.

I’m always shocked how much of a difference the cement makes when bonding ceramics.

Swipe to see the difference of dry fit vs fit with flowable composite.

Brilliant work from

Such an honour to have come and spend the day at

He is less than one year out of dental school, and is a student within the fellowship of restorative dentistry.

He asked if he could come and shadow me, and, of course, I was more than happy to help out. I didn’t realise he would be driving over 4 hours each way to get to us!

It was a great day, lots of great questions, and fantastic to see such an eager dentist doing great things so early in their career. Big things to come from you Hamaad, I’m sure
