Last week, Lanmark360’s Communication Manager wrote about her first year in the dental industry. There’s a general observation that once you’re in dental, you’re hooked. It turns out many can relate, and the response to this post was overwhelming. This whole theory of being a lifer in dental is further exemplified by Michael Dunn in his…
This July, I celebrated my one-year anniversary of working in the dental industry. I studied communications in college, and being the jock that I am, found myself working at a sports communications company right after graduation. After two years, and multiple lunches where my all-male coworkers rattled off sports trivia and statistics for an hour…
I recently came across a pictorial history of dental technology through the ages. This page starts with the very beginnings of dentistry in the Indus Valley and ancient Mesopotamia. It is so exciting to see how far we have come! I can’t wait to see what the future holds, be it stem cell-generated tooth buds…

People are using them constantly, exemplified by my June 8th…

OK, Geeksters: This post is going to involve a little interactivity on your part. My good friend Tony is a Physical Therapist in the UK. He sent me a link to a video on YouTube. The show is called the Jeremy Kyle Show, and it is very similar to the Maury Povich or Jerry Springer…
An extremely fast-growing segment of my business in dental is “social media” — blogging, texting, tweeting, Facebooking… the whole gamut. There are hundreds of thousands of sites where people from around the world talk about every topic imaginable. Dentaltown is an excellent and well-established social media site for dental professionals. These dental-related social media sites…
I fondly remember my mom leaning over the bathroom sink with me and giving me my first “grown-up toothbrush.” Actually, it is one of my earliest memories. I remember brushing my teeth with my sister’s “Pearl Drops Tooth Gel” (am I showing my age?). I just returned from a week-long trip with all of my…
