"Veterinary Dentistry is a Team Sport" with Kris Bannon FAVD, DAVDC

Send us Fan MailIn this episode, host Benita Altier explores how successful veterinary dental care requires coordinated teamwork across the entire practice with Dr. Kris Bannon, a board-certified dental specialist and former president of the American Veterinary Dental Society. From front desk receptionists screening for oral-nasal fistulas to technicians managing critical anesthesia monitoring, every team member plays a vital role—and the two-technician-per-patient model is non-negotiable for patient safety. Dr. Bannon emphasizes the importance of strong diagnostic training for general practitioners, appropriate referral relationships with specialists, and management support for sustainable dental programs.Guest: Dr. Kris Bannon, DVM, DAVDC, Fellow of the Academy of Veterinary Dentistry  #veterinarydentistry #podcast #dvm #veterinarian #veterinaryadvice #veterinarytechnician #veterinaryteam #veterinaryassistant #veterinarymedicine Organizations & Resources:Dr. Kris Bannon DVM, FAVD, DAVDChttps://vetdentistrynm.com/Find Pawsitive Dentistry: Benita Altier LVT, VTS (Dentistry)https://pawsitivedental.com/https://facebook.com/pawsitivedentalhttps://www.instagram.com/pawsitivedental/https://www.youtube.com/@PawsitiveDentalEducationhttps://www.facebook.com/Pawsitivedental/@pawsitivedentalwww.pawsitivedental.com
