Show Notes

I remember being a dental student and a simple ‘check up’ could take HOURS! Then the tutor would come along and complete the observation in 30 seconds…

‘How does a routine general dental examination work in the real world?’, asks Emma, our Protrusive student.

The humble ‘check-up’ – as far as you can get from sexy before and after cases. The stuff no one is posting about on socials…until now!
