They're just arguing a little bit about slightly different ways to fix the problem. Would you say there's any more nuances or differences that perhaps we didn't go into that is well worth mentioning between those religions? (Bobby) So, as it kind of turned out, then they were all the same, except for neuromuscular. Neuromuscular was the odd one out... Jaz' Introduction: Hello, Protruserati. I'm Jaz Gulati and welcome to Occlusion Wars episode 99 with Dr. Bobby Supple. This episode was inspired by a blog post I saw Dr. Bobby Supple right in his website. And it was about the differences between the different occlusal camps or these occlusal religions. Hencewhy the name occlusion wars because the most common questions I get is Jaz, What should I do? Should I study with Dawson? Or should I study with Pankey or Should I study with Kois or Spear and neuromuscular? So there's a lot of these occlusal religions and that's what we call them throughout this episode, you know, tongue in cheek kind of thing. And which one is the best one, which is the correct religion. That's what we're hoping to answer in this episode. And the main question I asked Dr. Bobby Supple was exactly that. And really, I don't want to give too much away from this episode. But one thing to consider is that the end goal of no matter who you train with, whether it is Spear or Pankey, Kois whoever. You will do wonderful dentistry, you will do it for the benefit of the patient, you will have more fun as a comprehensive dentist. So whoever you train with, just do everything they say and do it properly and follow that system. But don't be afraid to expose yourself to other ways of thinking because essentially, what these religions, these occlusal religions argue about is the processes. How do you get from A to B, the B is the same, A is the same. A is your patient. B is a stable position, whereas a better smile, a nice comfortable bite, all those things, right? So A and B are the same. What we're fighting about is everything in the middle. And that really doesn't matter. We should be outcome based ie a longevity in our restorations, happy patients. And I think all those whose religions deliver exactly that. That's one of the sentiments that Dr. Bobby Supple passed on. I just want to echo that. Now if you want to really skip to that bit. It's probably somewhere in the middle to the end of the episode where we really get to nitty gritty. We start off in this episode, discussing the origin story. I mean, origin stories always really powerful of these clinicians that we speak to Dr. Bobby Supple has so much experience to share. So we learn about his origin story,
