It's Voices of Dentistry week! If you are at the conference and could only be a guest on one podcast...you should definitely do A Very Clinical Podcast.

If you aren't at the conference, we'd still love to hear from you and hope to interview you at a future date. Just let us know!

Harry Wheeler joins Clint to answer the burning question from last week's episode: who won Christmas? Or, put better, who didn't ruin Christmas?
Harry shares what it's like to be a dental student in Glasgow, Scotland. Less Hogwarts than expected.
Harry is also a forensic scientist and shares what it's like to be in forensics, which is unfortunately less CSI and more depressing at times than exciting. It is, however, a good conversation starter at a pub. Chicks dig a forensic pathologist.
Dr Krytina Stafford, a veterinarian in the UK, goes Totally Oral this week in an attempt to win Christmas over her dental student brother, Harry Wheeler. Check out the podcast to find out what that even means.
We talk about oral health for different types of animals and why humans may be more prone to pay for dental procedures of their family pet as opposed to their own mouths.
We also discuss the brilliant business idea she has to combine forces with her dentist husband, Chris Stafford, and why I think Chris should do animal implants on boat offshore.
