Quotes:
“To me, to go to an annual meeting, to go to SmileCon, you go there to reconnect and to connect. And if you don't go to these, be it the ADA or any of them, you're missing out.” (10:03—10:13)
“We have 120 presentations at SmileCon this year over three days. So, there's not going to be anything that you can't hear and learn about.” (10:17—10:24)
“I go to meetings a lot of times to learn from my colleagues. Now, most of these speakers are our colleagues because they're doing it too. But that's what I think a lot of people that don't routinely go to meetings [miss out on], whether it’s state, local, or national. That's what I get out of going to a lot of meetings.” (10:45—11:04)
“If there's something you want to learn about, you need to be at SmileCon this year. It’s going to be a great show for everyone, regardless of why you're going.” (11:50—12:00)
“All dental meetings will have this. We’ve called ours Dental Central with SmileCon — and it is. It’s a central place that we can all go, and we can learn, and we can meet. And there will be some fun stuff there to play with too. And then, after it’s all over, we can smile on what a great experience [it was].” (15:48—16:04)
“It’s going to be great. We’re looking forward to seeing everybody and reconnecting. And I think that's the thing that you need to think about. It’s the relationships that make the world turn around. And so, that's what's good about it.” (23:03—23:14)
