Dentist in a Box

Here’s a smile for you all. This is an old sketch from MADtv: To be honest, I’m surprised no manufacturer has taken this route for an infomercial yet. As an insomniac marketer, I am continually transfixed by the pitchpeople used in infomercials. I think these actors “extracted” the essence perfectly, tongue in cheek, of course….

ADA and Back

Wow! Just got back from another trek to the ADA. I would love to say that there was something unique and different about the experience, but there wasn’t. There was emphasis on new things, but very few. I guess that I shouldn’t really be complaining; the weather was beautiful. NO HUMIDITY and sunny skies every…

Zebra Cleans Hippo Teeth

You all know how much a sucker I am for anything pet- or animal-related, so I had to share this truly amazing news story I ran across: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/earth/wildlife/7426866/Zebra-cleans-hippopotamuss-teeth.html Those of us in the industry are so involved in the treatment of human dental problems that we forget we’re not the only ones who have teeth….

Dunkin’ Teeth

Just about every night that I am home, I make a late-night journey to Dunkin’ Donuts®. I usually get a decaffeinated iced coffee for the rest of the night, but I also buy my iced coffee (high-test) for the next morning so that I don’t have to make a stop on the way into work….

Introducing a NEW Element to TheDentalGeek.com

The new addition is comical,  actually, it is a comic. The comic strip, which will be an ongoing feature of the blog, was created and designed by Andy McKay and artist Tim Williams. Look for the strip to provide some “inside humor” that specifically revolves around the dental industry. If you find the comic funny,…

Dental Insurance

Here’s a subject that comes up from time to time: Is it necessary to have dental insurance? I spoke to a good number of people and this is what I found, the majority of individuals I talked to said they were not covered by dental insurance; they’d rather deal with problems as they arise instead…

Oldies but Goodies and Everything Old is New Again

OK, Dental Geeks, the video below will separate the die-hard Dental Geeks from the wannabes. My buddy Logan, who is an artist in Paris, sent this to me because he knows I am in the dental industry. He tells me this video/song is all the rage in Paris clubs right now. Why wouldn’t it be?!?…

So, Sue Me!

Greetings, Geeks. I was out in Chicago on business and the topic came up about a California dentist who is suing an implant manufacturer: http://www.newsinferno.com/archives/21804 I read what I could on the case – I think all Dental Geeks should read it, too. Would love to hear your feedback. Situation: Dentist places lots of implants…

Call me Old-Fashioned!

TIME- I don’t have enough of it. I need more of it, to take care of the little things in life, like my oral health. I just finished several rounds of market research (focus groups) with GP dentists and dental specialists. Like many of you, I am a “one-stop-shop” type of guy. I love Costco®…
