Today’s episode is all about expanding your expertise and setting yourself apart in the ever-evolving world of dentistry. As a general dentist, you have the opportunity to transform your practice by sub-specializing in airway and TMJ conditions—two critical areas that are often overlooked but deeply impact patient health. Our guest today is Dr Stephanie Vondrak. She owns and operates a private practice in Elkhorn, Nebraska. Dr. Vondrak is a prime example of how expanding a practice with specialized services in airway and TMJ disorders can elevate the standard of care across all phases of restorative dentistry. In doing so, she has not only enhanced patient outcomes but also found immense fulfillment in her career.

According to our guest, Dr Stephanie Vondrak, if you want to make sure your restorative work is going to last, you need to know about the entire occlusal system, and that includes the TMJ. So Dr. Vondrak sought out CE courses taught by TMJ experts which have given her not only the ability to understand and diagnose TMJ disorders, but to actually treat them. She starts with protective therapy and then if necessary, proceeds with corrective therapy. Treating TMJ disorders in house is not for every GP, but, understanding the options for your patients is certainly the responsibility of the general dentist. Dr Vondrak owns and operates a private practice in Elkhorn, Nebraska. She has pursued over 600 hours of post-doctorate education in TMD, occlusion, orthodontics, and sleep apnea including the Pankey Institute, the Schuster Center, and the American Academy of Craniofacial Pain.

And when it comes to preparing a single crown, we're often challenged with little occlusal clearance. So what is the simplest and best way to open up the VDO prior to doing your restorative dentistry? To tell us all about it is our guest Dr. Stephanie Vondrak.
