Clear Aligners: More Than Just Cosmetics with Dr. David Galler
During the latest episode of the AGD Podcast Series, host George Schmidt, DMD, FAGD, talks with David Galler, DMD, one of the top providers of aligner treatments in the U.S. During the episode, Galler describes his early work with aligner therapies to some of the new tools that make them more accessible. He also discusses how incorporating aligners into a patient's care addresses cosmetics, periodontal, and occlusion care. Still, dentists must know how to manage these treatments and keep up with current aligner learning. He also touches on the problem of burnout, asking other dentists questions to help them identify factors impacting their happiness and how to find outlets for things that are causing them stress.
As a featured speaker at numerous study clubs, webinars, and national and regional events, Galler has created a strong following of practitioners wanting to learn more about treating patients with his aligner therapy. He is credited with bringing several key innovations to the forefront of the clear aligner field, including the GOST (Galler Ostreicher Spacing Technique), Ortho Munchies, and the GLR 4.0 — Galler's proprietary algorithm. He also runs various HAPPINESS seminars to improve dentists' quality of life. When not treating patients, lecturing, or innovating, Galler enjoys performing stand-up comedy and currently has a residency in Las Vegas, where he performs several times a month.
