Welcome to Episode 22 with Dr. Barry Glassman. He likes me to call him Barry, as you'll see. So this is a my first ever full intro and outro video podcast. And I'm glad to see Barry, he also featured in episode eight, which if you haven't listened to it, it's a great episode, I urge you to check it out. Episode eight was all about anterior midpoint stop appliances, and do they cause a OBS. So if you haven't heard that already, it's really great. You can hear Barry's passion in that in what he believes. And I guess I want to give you some context, in terms of what you're about to watch or listen to if you listen on the podcast between the conversation between myself and Barry. Basically, what Barry teaches and what he's all about, and I heavily recommend going on one of his courses because it's a different way to see occlusion and basically the crux of it is, is that it's not the occlusion, or the malocclusion that causes a lot of problems. Let's call this let you know whether it's chipping or things breaking TMD, which is a very loose term. It's not because of the occlusion per se, it's because of occluding. And what Barry always says on his courses, nouns don't hurt people, verbs do. So the occlusion is not as important as the occluding. So if you've got someone who's like a 17 and a half minute a day chewer, then they're not likely to cause that much problems when in terms of destroying their teeth, or TMD. Because essentially, what we're talking about is the relationship between parafunction and causing repetitive micro trauma in the temporomandibular joint is quite, we will discuss a fair bit of anatomy at the end. So it's actually a good revision for that. And I'd actually encourage people to if you're listening on the audio podcast version,
