Bulletproof Dental Practice

Dr. Peter Boulden & Dr. Craig Spodak

A dental podcast about the business of dentistry, with practical advice on what it actually takes to grow a successful practice: marketing, patient enrollment, systems, team leadership, retention and referrals, and how to build wealth that doesn't depend on your clinical days.But a great practice is only half of it. This show is also about finding fulfillment in dentistry again, and having the honest conversations most dentists only have behind closed doors: burnout, money, partnerships gone wrong, team drama, and the pressure nobody talks about.Real strategies, real talk, and plenty of laughs along the way.Hosted by Dr. Peter Boulden and Dr. Craig Spodak.
