Show Notes
Dr. Chris Majors, a dentist who graduated in 1998, spoke to Dr. Allison and Shawn at the Voices of Dentistry conference. During their conversation, Dr. Majors emphasized the importance of having margin in one's life, including emotionally, physically, and financially. Margin is the leeway space between our load and our limits, and it applies to all aspects of life. Dr. Majors stated that dentistry is not a game of volume but of margin, and spending more time with patients often leads to better dentistry. He also discussed how young dentists need permission to know that they can be successful without overworking themselves, as overworking can lead to physical and emotional breakdowns. Dr. Majors is now focused on creating a digital platform for an alternative to dental insurance and coaching both young and senior dentists on investing in people beyond their dental career.
