Welcome back to Conversations with Dental Friends 💬
This week I’m joined by the brilliant Shennae Bartlett from Chairsyde a dentist who’s diving deep into how AI can actually support us in dentistry, rather than replace us.
We’re unpacking:
✨ The myths (and truths) about how AI will really impact our careers
🦷 What AI actually means for the dental world
🛠️ How tools like Chairsyde can make your day-to-day easier and more efficient
💡 And how leaning into innovation can help us rediscover our passion, tackle burnout, and build a more sustainable future in dentistry
A huge thank you to Shennae for such an insightful, inspiring conversation and for reminding us that embracing change doesn’t have to mean losing the human side of what we do.
Big thanks to our sponsors Dürr Dental and DMI for supporting this episode.
