Join us for this monthly dental talk show style webinar hosted by Dr. Chris Marchack and Dr. Frank Vidjak discussing patient scenarios presented in their practices. Each month a different guest clinician will join the doctors to discuss patient treatment options, the advantage or drawback of those options, and how to be present to those patients. Join in for our unique “what would you do and why” interactive session; each month we will post a case to review and investigate the options for treatment based on patient background to expand how you approach the best treatment for your patient.
