    10 -- Inflammatory Diseases in General
    Aug 10 2020

    Happy birthday to a new grandson! Do you know the difference between infection and inflammation? Allow me to make it simple. Also, we discuss inflammatory diseases in general as well as what autoimmune diseases are. The mouth is an easy and direct way to begin to address inflammatory diseases of the body and a laser at the right setting can accomplish this quickly and effectively. Finally, when the mouth is healthier, it affects the rest of the body's health as well.

    11 -- Local Anesthetics
    Aug 11 2020

    Let's talk about local anesthetics and dentists. In this episode I describe how to help children with their fears about going to the dentist. Also, should dental hygienists be allowed to give local anesthesia? What might be some good ways to train and certify them? I also give a few of my own tips on how dentists might think about providing comfortable anesthesia. So, patients – how important would you say the delivery of comfortable local anesthesia is to you? Is it as big a deal as I think it is? Let me know your thoughts.
