139: Coronavirus Conversation With Dr. Justin Moody

Practicing for 23 years now, Dr. Justin Moody is one of the most credentialed Implantologists in the U.S. He is the Founder and Director of Implant Pathway, a continuing education program that focuses on the surgical placement of dental implants. Dr. Moody is also an international speaker and he builds strong mentorships with doctors who take his courses through live surgical training at the end of their Implant Pathway continuum.  In today’s episode, we discuss different topics including what he’s been doing during this pandemic and his plans moving forward. We also talk about the Implant Pathway and how we can use this downtime to learn more about implants.  Justin specifically brings up the issue we’re facing right now where dentists are viewed as nonessential, and even “dangerous,” at this time of the pandemic – when we could have become force multipliers in the healthcare system. He makes a valid point about how dentists should really be regarded as specialists in our field in the same way that MDs are in their respective specialties.  In this episode, you’ll hear: ADA’s lack of support for dental care providers How to manage our practice from a business standpoint The hurdles and impediments to the dental implant industry  Realizations gleaned from this COVID-19 situation    Connect with Dr. Justin Moody: Dr. Justin Moody Dr. Justin Moody IG Dr. Justin Moody FB Dr. Justin Moody Twitter Dentists, Implants, and Worms Podcast Implant Pathway Implant Pathway FB Implant Pathway Youtube Channel Implant Pathway IG Voices of Dentistry   Connect with Russell: Dr. Russell Kirk Business of Dentistry Podcast Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/businessofdentistrypodcast/ IG - https://www.instagram.com/businessofdentistry/ Twitter - https://twitter.com/businessdentist LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/business-of-dentistry/   *** EPISODE CREDITS: If you like this podcast and are thinking of creating your own, consider talking to my producer, Danny Ozment.
