I\u2019m excited for the 'price of dabbling' to come down... I\u2019m okay with high-quality products that are less expensive that are disrupting the status quo. I\u2019m actually here for it.&quot; Alan recounts a whirlwind trip to the Chicago Dental Society Midwinter Meeting, but not before detailing a &quot;hellish&quot; day in the clinic that nearly derailed his travel plans. From grueling extractions to elusive mesial canals, Alan shares the raw reality of a high-stress day in the operatory. Once in Chicago, the conversation shifts to the &quot;price of dabbling&quot; in dental technology. Alan discusses his hands-on experience with the new Shining 3D Elf scanner, the seamless logistics of the Midwinter meeting, and how high-quality, lower-cost innovations are disrupting the status quo for scanners, microscopes and frankly all of dental technology. It\u2019s a candid look at clinical struggles, the joy of in-person podcasting, and the evolving landscape of dental technology.
