"The Look" & Disinfection Is "The Look" Controversial & Ingle Symposium Inspired Q&A

The show begins with Ruddle & Lisette discussing an unusual service that you might want to consider adding to your practice: Vampire fangs! Then, decades ago, Herb Schilder described cases that fulfilled the 5 mechanical objectives as having “the Look”; is this controversial? After, Ruddle and Lisette do a Q&A with disinfection-related questions from lecture attendees at the USC Ingle Symposium earlier this year. The episode concludes with a couple case reports; can a case be successful and NOT have “the Look”, or vice versa?

    "Endodontic Disinfection 2022: Balancing Predictability, Possibility & Practicality"

The role of bacteria in the pathogenesis of endodontic disease is well established, and therefore, it is critical to eradicate these pathogens by employing the highest level of presently developed standards.
