Jaz Gulati - Protrusive Dental Podcast

A normal sleep study does not mean normal breathing.

In this new episode, ENT surgeon Dr David McIntosh joins Jaz to unpack why sleep-disordered breathing needs more than just a score.

We discuss children vs adults, why STOP-Bang may miss women, mouth breathing as “survival” around obstruction, and why dentistry and ENT need to work together more closely.

This Wednesday, Dr Sam Johnson is back with Jaz for a proper endo deep dive.

Not just which file system to use, but what really matters behind the decision: glide path, irrigation, taper, metallurgy, feel, experience, and knowing when a “simple” system might give you a false sense of security.

One for the endo geeks.

New episode live Wednesday.

Rotary vs reciprocation is one of Endodontics’ biggest debates — but Dr. Samuel Johnson argues the file system may not be as important as we think.

In this episode, we discuss glide paths, file fracture, irrigation, operator experience, and why “it depends” is often the most honest answer in dentistry.

Such a powerful reminder from Dr Charles Brandon in PDP259.

Clinical confidence doesn’t come from getting everything right the first time. It comes from reflecting on the cases that didn’t go to plan, learning from them, and coming back better.

In this episode, we unpack 3 secrets behind stunning resin veneers — but this quote might be the most important lesson of all.

We’ve had titanium implants for decades… but the zirconia conversation is getting louder.

Had a great chat with Dr. Pav Khaira unpacking what’s actually going on here—beyond the hype. From corrosion and peri-implant biology to why zirconia might behave slightly differently (and why execution matters more than material).

It’s one of those topics where the nuance often gets lost.

🚨 NEW PODCAST EPISODE 🚨

Burnout in dentistry… is it really just about workload?

In this powerful conversation with Dr Aditi Bhalla, we explore:
• Why so many dentists operate from fear, perfectionism, and anxiety
• The hidden cost of never feeling “good enough”
• What compassion-focused dentistry actually means (and why it’s not “fluffy”)
• Practical ways to build a more sustainable, fulfilling career

This one goes deeper than clinical dentistry—it’s about YOU as the operator behind the dentistry.

If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed, constantly chasing perfection, or stuck in comparison… this episode will hit home.

We spend so much time trying to perfect our technique… materials, prep design, occlusion, ceramics.

But this episode with Dr Brandon Mack was a powerful reminder that the real challenge in cosmetic dentistry isn’t technical. It’s expectation management.

As Brandon shared, even if you deliver 99% of the result, that missing 1% can define the entire experience for the patient. That’s why his entire workflow revolves around listening deeply, aligning on a shared vision, and using provisionals as a communication tool—not just a step in the process.

Because patients aren’t just buying the dentistry.
They’re buying how closely you can translate what they see in their mind into reality. This one really made me reflect on my own cases.

How do you ensure alignment before you pick up the handpiece?
