Protruserati, welcome back to your favorite dental podcast. I really appreciate you coming back. And if you're a new listener, welcome to this podcast. Hope you get lots of value from it. And today's episode is part of a three series. So this first part is about full mouth rehabilitation, adhesive dentistry, so an adhesive rehab, ie using some sort of composite resin, either direct or indirect, and how to transfer that from the wax up to the mouth. So we're gonna break it up into three different episodes with Dr. Dev Patel, who came on before, and he talked about private dentistry versus public dentistry and how we can be comprehensive in public dentistry. So in today's episode, we're looking at the mindset of the clinician who's doing full mouth rehab, because we can't just dive in talking about how to do these beautiful wax ups, and how to do all the big composites and indirect work as well, which we mentioned, that comes in episode three, actually. But we need to first start off on the right foot. And we need to know why you want to get involved with full mouth dentistry. What the mindset of the clinician is, how to diagnose, how to communicate, what to say, and how to say it at your treatment plan presentation appointment, to be able to then lead you with the correct patient, with the correct diagnosis to treat that patient in a full mouth manner. This series is titled 11 steps have a decent format rehabs and so really, this episode looks at appointment zero, ie your mindset, you as a dentist, and appointment one. And also when you bring the patient back and you speak to them. So those are the first couple appointments. The second part of the series coming probably in about four weeks time when we record is going to be appointments two to five, this is when you actually do, your mounting, your wax up, your transferring of the wax up to the mouth and you're assessing the phonetics and the aesthetics and you send them home to test drive. And then the final part getting to there are really meaty bits. Okay, but I think it's good for you to listen to these foundational parts one and two, before you come to that one,
