Welcome to the 141st episode of the Tooth or Dare Podcast with Irene Iancu!
(@toothlife.irene) and this week's guest Dr. Ben Johnson aka @pnwoms.
Ben Johnson was inspired to go into oral surgery by his father, Dr. Carl Johnson, and their lifelong friend and colleague, Dr. Rick Edwards. He saw the differences they were able to make in patients’ lives and wanted to be able to do the same. Now, Dr. Ben works with his father on a daily basis and feels extremely lucky for the opportunity. He shares a similar philosophy with the other oral surgeons at Pacific Northwest Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeons regarding patient care and satisfaction, which centers on providing highly focused, patient-centered treatment.
Dr. Ben strives to treat every patient like they are a part of the family. He understands that coming into the office for oral surgery can be a potentially anxious process, and he works hard to make each patient’s experience as comfortable as possible. Dr. Ben enjoys practicing oral surgery because it provides him with the opportunity to improve patients’ lives.
In this conversation with Dr. Ben Johnson, we chat about the profession of oral surgery, where he went to school, where he grew up and how Ben got to where he is today.
In the world of dentistry, is it perceived as a heavy-handed, “rough-and-tumble” specialty, or is it actually a delicate skill that requires creativity?
Dr. Ben is the kind of person who “likes to be bored at work” - if you call a routine wisdom teeth extraction boring. He shares his wealth of experience as an oral surgeon through stories of bone grafts and implant failures. Hang on to your suction - if you haven’t seen his Instagram feed, be warned because he is NOT afraid to share all the juicy details of a procedure.
Above all, Dr. Ben cares about his patients - getting them a good outcome, making sure they’re comfortable, and being transparent about his practices. His contribution to dentistry doesn’t stop at his patients though. Dr. Ben is also behind the Dental Influencers Alliance (DIA), a network of professionals who promote education and positive dental practices through an annual conference. Learn more about DIA and where it’s happening next in this episode!
