No dentist wants to think about getting reported to the board—but it happens more often than you might realize.

In this episode, former dental board investigator Duane Tinker joins Linda Kane to break down the real reasons complaints get filed, how board reviews actually work, and what every practice should have in place to stay protected.

From documentation gaps to credentialing missteps, this is a must-listen for any dental owner or team member who wants peace of mind and long-term protection.
