There's red flags, and there's deal breakers. Red Flags means like, watch out. Deal breaker means I'm not going to treat you. Okay? So if there's two red flags, so this is just how I trained myself, if there's two red flags. We can't see them... Jaz's Introduction: Hello fellow dental geeks and thank you so much for joining me for Episode 12 today. I am so sorry that I haven't been posting so much at the moment. Basically, life got in the way. My wife had a baby. His name is Ishaan. I sort of referenced it in this episode. So this was recorded when Ishaan was two weeks, now he's near a 10 weeks. So it's taken two months for me to produce this episode. But going back on track now for lots more episodes coming up your way. I also had two other big events happen in my life. So one was my ortho exam. I'm doing a postgraduate diploma in orthodontics. And that's now finished, please say a pass with distinction. So super happy about that. It was great to have been through the diploma but you know, when you're like studying for an exam, it's like finals. You like studying, studying, studying and then you just can't wait for it to be over. So I'm glad it was over but honestly had a great time in Manchester with Mohammed Almuzian and the ACE group of orthodontics. So that was amazing, so good news to share with you in that aspect. And of course, if you're on social media in dentistry, you would have heard about the Dentinal Tubules Congress 2019 it was a huge success. And I got to welcome to the stage Professor Marcus black because I was chairing the morning session on Friday, and also one of my heroes in occlusion. Dr. Michael Melkers. And he put on a great show. So the Congress was just phenomenal. So there is an early booking sort of system happening at the moment again, early bird discount for for the Congress2020, that's a Dentinal Tubules Congress 2020 I don't get paid to say this. I'm telling you because I want you to come I want to meet you there literally is the best dental conference/congress. I really is none of these things. It's an experience. Along with his post I'll post a link for you to become I think you can only book until the 17th or the 18th of October, so not long left for you to get your early bird discount to secure your place for next year. It's held in Heythrop park in Oxford, which is a great place we sort of dominate the entire sort of resort if you like, and it is just phenomenal to come next year some amazing speakers like Mario Semenza, Didier Dietschi, Ed McLaren, Ian Dunn and Boota Ubhi, Tif Qureshi, James Baker, Andrew Chandrapal and Gurvinder Bhirth again. So do check that one out. So today's episode is with implant Ninja, his name is Ivan, and it is full of gems,
