Drawing on 25 years of innovation leadership, Ellen separates the technologies that truly expand access from the ones that just make good headlines.

🎧 A candid, big-picture look at equity, innovation, and the future of dental care.

**Company Profile: Solventum**

If you've seen the Solventum name and wondered what happened to 3M Health Care, here's the answer: in 2024, 3M spun off its health care division as an independent company called Solventum. The products, the teams, and the clinical relationships are the same. What changed is the structure, with health care now the sole focus rather than one division among many.

The name comes from the words solving and momentum, and the stated goal is greater agility and closer collaboration with the clinicians who rely on their products.

Episode #1704 : Dentistry Uncensored with Howard Farran, Howard sits down with Drs. Jessica and Richard Marn — a pediatric dentist and dual board-certified anesthesiologist who together are redefining how dental practices approach sedation safety.

Their concept? Boring Sedation. The goal isn't dramatic rescue — it's building systems so reliable that problems get caught early and cases stay predictable.

🎧 A fascinating, potentially life-saving conversation for any dentist who offers sedation in their practice.

**The Hygienist with Six Cavities**

A hygienist with exemplary oral hygiene showed up to her recall appointment with multiple interproximal lesions. No diet problems, no hygiene lapses. What she did have was acid reflux and a night guard.

Here's what most patients, and many clinicians, don't think about: the space between a removable appliance and the teeth has its own chemistry. Saliva flow drops inside it. Acids sit against the enamel for hours. The mouth's ability to buffer and recover is blocked. The appliance, the article notes, effectively becomes a petri dish.

It's a pattern that shows up in night guard wearers, retainer patients, and increasingly in aligner therapy, where white spot lesions are a recognized complication that better brushing habits won't prevent.

Episode #1703 : Dentistry Uncensored with Howard Farran, Howard sits down with Shreyas Parab — co-founder and CEO of DayDream — who grew up in his mother's dental practice, saw the broken systems up close, and built the solution he wished they'd had.

From spotting hidden revenue leaks to cutting through the AI hype, Shreyas brings a refreshingly honest outside perspective on what's really holding dental practices back.

🎧 Smart, direct, and full of practical insight for practice owners ready to think differently.
