Today we feature a conversation with Dr. Kristine Aadland! Kristine is a dentist and practice owner from Vancouver, WA! Kristine teaches chairside cosmetic and restorative dentistry with CEREC and she focuses on giving back! In this interesting conversation we discuss:

• You cannot pump your own gas in Oregon. Also, Al was a boards patient in Portland, OR in 1997.

• For people who have done both startup and existing practice purchase...which would they prefer?
• Kristine's CEREC journey (she started with Red Cam!)
• Kris's workflow (it's impressive!)
• What is the most baller move a CEREC dentist can do with their patient?
• What would Kris tell someone who is on the fence with in office milling?
• Same day smile design/anteriors!
• How did Kris start speaking?
• Kris has been giving back to patients in need doing HANDS ON COURSES!
• Dr. Justin Moody joined us during the interview to talk about the changes at Implant Pathway in Arizona!
