What would you do differently if you had to start over with your dental practice? Emmett Scott sits down with Dr. Steve Broughton, CEO of Light Dental Studios, who started with a small dental practice in a converted mobile home and spent 30 years growing to 32 locations. In the early days, he lived on a fraction of what he earned, stayed in the chair, and built a 30-year relationship with his bank. As his team grew, he learned that blaming others gets you nowhere and that loyal people will take you further than talented ones. He also shares why he fires slowly, turns down doctors with big egos, and holds his leadership training on Friday nights. If you're in the chair five days a week trying to hold it all together, this conversation will show you where lasting growth really starts.

How much are you paying your team in overtime just to finish clinical notes at the end of the day? Kendall Hussein sits down with Daniel Bessonov, CEO and founder of Avora, an AI documentation and case acceptance platform used by more than a thousand clinicians. Daniel explains what ambient documentation actually means and how practices are saving 40 to 45 hours a month by getting notes, charting, and treatment plans into their PMS automatically. He also gets honest about the features his own team refused to build, and why your hygienist matters more than any feature list when you are picking a vendor.

What if your Google Business Profile already brings in more new patients than your website and ads combined? Jordin McEntire sits down with Bill Donato, co-founder of dentalmarketing.com, to unpack why just three specific signals control 70% of a dental practice's Google ranking.

He also shares how the right AI-written content can help a practice climb to the top of local search results.

What if your body is willing to sacrifice your teeth just to protect everything else? Brooke Young sits down with Dr. Rachaele Carver, a biologic dentist in the Berkshires of Massachusetts, to unpack how she diagnoses oral disease by looking well beyond the tooth. Dr. Carver breaks down why fluoride isn't the fix conventional dentistry claims it is, how gut health and toxicity quietly drive decay and gum disease, and why she tests for both before she ever picks up a drill. That same conviction is what built a practice patients now travel hours to visit. If you've ever wondered whether decay is about more than sugar and brushing, this episode will change how you look at every chart.

What if the practice you've spent years growing isn't actually worth what you think it is to a buyer? Jordin McEntire sits down with Brannon Moncrief, CEO of McLerran & Associates, to unpack what's really happening in today's private equity and DSO market. Brannon breaks down why crossing $3 million in revenue changes your options, what buyers actually screen for before they'll bid, and how EBITDA multiples are trading today.
