So taste your cement. See what it tastes like? Okay?... Jaz's Introduction: Hello, everyone. And welcome back to part two with Dr Libi Almuzian after the first episode all about prevention, we're going to follow on a little bit more about the clinical stuff. So for example, we're going to discuss this type of cavity, this type of presentation, a deciduous molar with a cavity like that, how would a pediatric specialist manage that, we're going to talk about the use of local anesthetic in children, is it always necessary? We're going to have a big part of the podcast episode discussing about stainless steel crowns. And we're gonna discuss why GDPs are not taking routine bitewings on children. As before, there's gonna be quite a few downloadables and I'll put them on the Protrusive Dental community. So it's going to be the whole crown booklet by Dundee University, some more by SDCEP and a pediatric dental blog that I'll put on there as well. So for those who are interested in this, they can follow up on that by joining the Protrusive Dental community on Facebook. I'm hoping that you've noticed that the audio is a bit cleaner for this part of the episode. When I switched to recording with a different software, it actually downgraded the quality of the audio. So I used to get a lot of messages in the initial episode saying 'Jaz, how's your audio so good, what kind of setup do you have?', but I feel as though the audio quality has dipped in a little bit. So I apologize for that. But we've got a way around it. So I'm hoping this already sounds better in your headphones while you're on your job while you're cooking or in your car. So I'm hoping that in future episodes unfortunately got bit of a backlog of three or four episodes before this technology with improve sound. Hat tip to Dr. Zak Kara who helped me improve my sound. So in a future episodes, around three, four episodes time from now, the entire episode hopefully will have as crisp as audio as you can hear it now. Anyway, we'll join Dr. Libi in just a moment. But I want to give you a Protrusive Dental pearl for this episode, which is basically this, during this lockdown period, it can be quite difficult to be your usual productive self because everything is now alien. It's weird being at home, you know, the temptations of daytime television, daytime drinking, all these sorts of things are in the way and you may be feeling that you're not as productive. So I certainly felt that way. So one thing I started to employ is a trick by someone called Brian Tracy, who has numerous books, which I read. And one of them I believe is called Eat That Frog. And the way he says is Eat That Frog. So what Eat That Frog philosophy means is when you wake up in the morning, do the most difficult thing and get it out of the way. So that thing that you really can't be bothered with, can't be asked with, you really don't want to do, do that thing first. So that's what I've started to do over the last week or so in t...
