Description

Welcome to Disrupting Dentistry, the podcast where two passionate dental hygienists—one from Australia and the other from America—unite to challenge the status quo of dental hygiene. With a shared commitment to high-level patient care, a deep belief in the power of science, and a drive to innovate, we are here to revolutionize the practice of dental hygiene. Each episode explores cutting-edge techniques, evidence-based practices, and thought-provoking discussions about the future of the dental profession. Together, we're challenging outdated methods, empowering professionals worldwide, and making a lasting impact on patient outcomes. If you're ready to rethink dental hygiene, embrace science, and disrupt the traditional ways of dentistry, this is the podcast for you! Join us as we boldly advocate progressive patient care and bring fresh, transformative ideas to the world of dental hygiene.
