Innovators of Health

Dr. Michael Goldberg & Dr. Luke Bauserman talk about dental sleep, TMJ care, and bringing photobiomodulation into practice

RedVive Season 1 Episode 14

In this Innovators of Health episode, Dr. Luke Bauserman talks with Dr. Michael Goldberg about how he evaluates new tech—then shows where photobiomodulation (red/NIR light) earns its place in dentistry. From TMJ and oral-appliance workflows to pre/post-procedure recovery and clinic→home protocols, he shares practical ways PBM improves pain, function, and adherence—without turning clinicians into salespeople. You’ll hear how to pilot safely, measure outcomes, train staff, and add PBM as a patient-first, evidence-guided adjunct.

Key Takeaways

  • 🧪 Evidence first: Pilot PBM with clear dosing and simple metrics before broad rollout.
  • 🔴 Real chairside wins: Short red/NIR sessions reduce TMJ pain and improve function pre/post care.
  • 🦷 Dental fit: PBM layers easily with oral appliances, myo work, and routine procedures.
  • 🧰 Doctor > salesperson: Lead with outcomes and education, not hype or pressure.
  • 📈 Keep what works: Continue (and scale) only when patients report meaningful improvements.
  • 🏠 Clinic → home: Simple take-home routines boost adherence and extend results.
