On today's episode, Dr. Mark Costes sits down with registered dental hygienist Kristen King, founder of Dental Reveal, to discuss how phase contrast microscopy is transforming the way dental teams diagnose periodontal disease and educate patients. With nearly 30 years of clinical experience, Kristen explains how visualizing live oral biofilm helps patients understand their risk, dramatically improves case acceptance, and elevates the hygiene appointment from a routine cleaning to a powerful health consultation. They explore the oral-systemic connection, the Bale Doneen method, and how practices can implement microscopes to grow their hygiene departments, strengthen collaboration with physicians, and deliver higher-level preventive care. Kristen also shares practical insights on training teams, choosing the right equipment, and integrating this technology into everyday workflows.
