The Orthopreneurs Podcast with Dr. Glenn Krieger
What does it mean to become an Orthopreneur? Hi there! My name is Dr. Glenn Krieger and I believe that in today’s competitive world, the orthodontic and dental communities should be collaborative. And I've created Orthopreneurs so that we can move towards that goal together. Orthodontists are smart people. You’ve accomplished a lot to get where you are, but chances are you never got a formal education in how to run the most effective and lowest stress practice possible. Don’t sweat it! Because we’ve got your back... Being an Orthopreneur means that you’re a part of a community. A community that brings peers together to become the best clinicians and the best business owners they can be. Becoming an Orthopreneurs means you never ever need to practice alone.

The Orthopreneurs Podcast with Dr. Glenn Krieger
Save Time and Money with Direct Print Aligners
Running a practice comes with its challenges, especially when it comes to efficiency and costs.
One of the areas where we can be more efficient and save costs is by directly printing aligners in our offices.
In this episode, I sit down with Mark Bacino from Voxel Dental and Nate Hudson from Renew Digital. Mark dives into how Voxel’s partnership with Lux Creo is changing the game with direct-print aligners. No more models, no more thermoforming. You can print a full set of aligners in about two hours; how cool is that?
Nate gives us the lowdown on CBCT tech and why certified pre-owned CBCTs are becoming a smarter investment than new 2D systems. We also chat about how these digital advancements help orthodontists offer faster, more efficient treatments, including same-day sleep appliances.
If you are looking for ways to streamline your workflow and cut costs without sacrificing quality, this is the episode you don’t want to miss.
Go ahead - hit that play button. You’ll thank me later!
