Discover the answer in this inspiring episode of Keep Leading!® podcast, as host Eddie Turner interviews Dr. Michael Landry, owner of Consultants in Dental Aesthetics and a nationally recognized leader in his field. Dr. Landry offers a unique perspective on leadership, having built a successful practice while earning fellowships in seven prestigious dental academies. From managing complex cases to lecturing across the country on innovative dental technology, he knows what it takes to lead with both precision and compassion. In this conversation, you'll see how Dr. Landry's approach to patient care—especially his passion for diagnosing and treating the often-overlooked epidemic of sleep apnea—reflects the qualities of outstanding leadership: noticing what others miss, advocating for those in need, and having the courage to tackle problems that could literally save lives. Whether you're leading a team, building a practice, or serving your community, Dr. Landry's insights on excellence, continuous learning, and maintaining work-life balance will inspire you to lead with both skill and compassion. Bio Dr. Michael Landry is the proud owner of Consultants in Dental Aesthetics and is an invaluable part of our robust team of skilled doctors. He is a board-certified diplomate in aesthetics and sleep dentistry. Dr. Landry has been awarded fellowships in the Academy of General Dentistry, the International Congress of Implantology, the Misch International Implant Institute, the Institute for Advanced Laser Dentistry, the International Academy of Dental-Facial Aesthetics, the International College of Dentists, and the American Society of Dental Aesthetics. Dr. Landry has lectured nationally on CEREC restorations, the use of CAT Scans in dentistry, treating patients with hemophilia, 3D printing, digital scanning, 3D designing, and practice management. Dr. Landry also has a passion for treating patients with sleep apnea. “Just as many people have sleep apnea as diabetes and asthma, but sleep apnea often goes undiagnosed. Currently, only 10% of those with sleep apnea have been diagnosed. If left untreated, sleep apnea can shorten your life by 7 years. We can use oral devices instead of CPAP to treat this disease.” Website https://www.houstonsmilespa.com Other Website https://www.hsapnea.com Facebook https://www.facebook.com/ConsultantsinDentalAesthetics Instagram https://www.instagram.com/consultantsindentalaesthetics/ Subscribe, share, and review on Apple Podcasts! https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/keep-leading/id1461490512 Subscribe, share, and review on Spotify https://open.spotify.com/show/0I7uAW3x4AWsLe6cnAzHp7?si=14549a44dec3495f Full Episode Transcripts and Detailed Guest Information www.KeepLeadingPodcast.com Keep Leading LIVE (Live Recordings of the Keep Leading!® Podcast) www.KeepLeadingLive.com Connect with Eddie Turner Website: https://www.eddieturnerllc.com LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/eddieturner About the Keep Leading!® Podcast The Keep Leading!® podcast is designed for individuals passionate about leadership.
