Materials and Tech that Expedite Excellence\n \nWith a constant stream of new products that claim to be bigger\, better\, faster flooding the industry\, it is challenging to know which are effective and efficient… and where there is hype. In this fast-moving market\, advertising makes every product appear to be the panacea. However\, some of the best products and services don’t enter the market with much fanfare. Dental professionals can become bogged down or confused when trying to decipher which new materials and technologies are right for their practices. As editorial director with Dental Economics magazine\, Dr. Joshua Austin authors the column Pearls for Your Practice and has personally worked with most new products and technologies that have entered the market. In this interactive\, fast-moving course\, Joshua shares the current trends in dental materials and technologies.

His keynote performances\, from Dentsply Sirona World to Seattle Study Club Symposiums\, are met with rave reviews from audiences and conference organizers alike. Joshua incorporates his trademark comedic style in his lectures across the country on topics such as mental wellness\, new products/materials review\, and online reputation management. As editorial director and columnist for Dental Economics focusing on dental products and technology (Pearls for Your Practice)\, he offers a fresh approach in today’s commercial driven dental journalism. When you read a ‘Pearl’\, you are getting an honest evaluation of a product which was used by Joshua in clinical practice on a patient.\nA graduate of the University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio Dental School\, Joshua served five years post-graduation as faculty in the Department of Restorative Dentistry.
