Questions About This Episode

What is Very Dental Classics: The Art of the Believable Tooth with Dr. Jason Smithson about?

In honor of this weekend's Spear Summit, this episode of Very Dental Classics features a conversation with the legendary Dr. Jason Smithson on a Friday morning at the 2022 Spear Summit in Arizona. Amidst coffee and Waffle House nostalgia, they dive deep into the philosophy of "anti-smile design"—the art of making teeth look believable and individual rather than generic. Jason discusses his approach to high-end composite resin, the importance of shade mapping, and why he believes the "decathlon dentist" model is evolving toward more collaborative, interest-based group practices. From the challenges of post-pandemic dental education to the "Instagramification" of dentistry, this conversation is a candid look at finding excellence and balance in a modern dental career.
