#37 - From Dental Boutique to Global Bootcamp: Dr. Lincoln Harris on Reinventing Dental Education

What do aviation simulators, burnout-proof muscle memory, and 35 countries have in common? Dr. Lincoln Harris. In this episode of Dental Tech Talks, we sit down with the founder of Ripe Global — the groundbreaking cloud simulation platform revolutionizing how dentists learn. Lincoln shares how his frustrations with traditional CE, his love of high-performance training, and his willingness to break every industry rule led to a scalable hands-on education model that teaches complex procedures 50% faster. From tactile mannequin tech to human factors psychology, and building his own LMS when none existed, this is a raw look at what it takes to reimagine dental education from the ground up. Whether you’re a DSO leader, burned-out associate, or tech-forward clinician, you’ll want to hear this.
