Blogs for Dentists
As a dental professional, staying informed and up-to-date is a crucial part of the job. Unfortunately, the amount of content available today is staggering. By narrowing your reading list to a few core thought leaders, you’ll be able maximize your time and influence without missing out.
Achieving Expert Status
These days, no matter who you are, the amount of content available in your area of expertise is practically limitless. Dentistry is no exception. There are podcasts, white papers, case studies, and more. To keep it simple, we’ll start with blogs, one of the simplest and most accessible forms of content.
A good dental blog not only educates, but helps to stimulate your thinking. Think of it in terms of a spark that ignites a slow burn of ideas, insights, and eventually, your mindset. You’re looking for blogs written by catalytic thinkers, whose content leads not just to a single idea, but an ongoing flow of them.
You’ll find that subscribing to, or simply reading, blog content a few times a week will unlock other content sources (such as those mentioned above). Rather than clutter your inbox by subscribing to several things at once, let a few top-shelf content sources open the door to others.
You’ll find a number of paths to explore by keeping the short list below. Thought leaders like the five bloggers below have a way of synergizing their collective output via their content.
