I'm Jaz Gulati and welcome back to the Protrusive Dental Podcast. If you follow me on the socials, you'll have seen that I've been quite busy these last few weeks. Jaz's Introduction:In fact, the whole of last week I was nonclinical because I took some time off for my brother-in-law's wedding. Now this is the same brother-in-law who you saw in that famous, has become pretty famous now, the IPR video I made. So, I did this whole experiment with using different types of IPR, burs and oscillating handpiece, disks, et cetera. And that got greatly received on YouTube and all the platforms as a helpful aid. Now, if you haven't seen that yet, just Google search for IPR Ultimate Review video. You'll find it. It's like number one on Google at the moment. And in that video, my guinea pig patient was my brother-in-law. And there we are. He got married. I was his dentist. I was proud. And also his wife, I whitened her teeth and they both had wonderful smiles. And it made me really happy. But I was experiencing a different type of stress. Now, usually it's clinical stress. This was non-clinical stress. What I mean by that is this was life.
