On today's episode, Dr. Mark Costes is joined by his longtime friend and fellow UCSD alum, Dr. Taher Dhoon, for another insightful surgical conversation. They kick things off with a nostalgic and lively discussion about UCSD's emerging basketball program, the culture of streetball, and how a hometown hero nearly changed the NCAA bracket. Then, they seamlessly pivot to a deep dive into frenectomies—highlighting their clinical relevance not just for pediatric patients, but for adults with airway, sleep, and muscular issues. Dr. Dhoon outlines how general dentists can integrate frenectomies into their practices, the benefits of CO2 laser vs. scalpel techniques, and how this one low-overhead procedure can unlock a powerful referral pipeline from pediatricians, lactation consultants, and myofunctional therapists. They also preview the new frenectomy curriculum launching at the Colorado Surgical Institute (CSI) and how it fits into a growing suite of CSI programs—from full-arch and zygomatic implants to IV and oral sedation, aesthetics, and more.
