This month marks the two-year anniversary of The ResiDental Movement Podcast! I initially created this podcast to shine a light on the critical necessity for in-home dental care, which remains as crucial today as it was when the first episode aired. Despite some progress, there's still a glaring gap in access to dental care for homebound patients. This being said it’s my hope that this podcast has inspired many to explore house-call dentistry, highlighting a unique opportunity for dental care practitioners willing to think outside the traditional clinic setting.

A recent debate in a dental Facebook group sparked a critical discussion about the role of dentists in improving access to comprehensive dental care. The dialogue touched upon whether independent dental hygienists could help mitigate this gap, a suggestion I remain skeptical about. However, the argument reinforced the urgency for more house-call dentists. With millions of homebound individuals needing dental care, setting up practices that specifically cater to these patients can make a tremendous impact. By embracing this model, dentists can address a massive unmet need, empowering both their professional practice and the lives of countless patients.

Simple math shows that if each of the 4 million homebound adults has access to a house-call dentist, the dental care crisis could be resolved with just 10,000 dedicated professionals. As nearly 7,000 dentists graduate each year, it’s a realistic goal within reach. The world desperately needs more House-Call dentists, and if you're ready to step up, resources are available at the ResiDental Movement website to help you get started. Let's come together and become the change that’s so urgently needed.
