Treatment Coordinators Tell All: Jillian Waters & Stephanie Sanchez
Some episodes you can just feel the energy through the mic. This is one of them. Dr. Antonino Secchi sits down with Jillian Waters and Stephanie Sanchez, two treatment coordinators at Fravel Brewer Orthodontics, who bring serious passion to a role that doesn't get talked about enough. A few things they get into:• The paths that brought them to the treatment coordinator role• The art of translating clinical talk into real-people language, and why being a mom helps• What to do when a patient says "let me think about it" • The misconceptions patients show up with the most• Creative ways their practice shows up for their community, from volunteering at a food bank and sponsoring kids' fun runs to hosting school field trips right in the practiceThis episode is a conversation about the human side of orthodontics, and the people who make patients feel like they're in the right place.

How an Engineer Approaches Ortho with Dr. Michael Pickard
In this episode of the GC Orthodontics Exchange, host Dr. Antonino Secchi sits down with Dr. Michael Pickard, a Canadian-born orthodontist practicing across three locations on the Washington-Idaho border, for a candid conversation about an unconventional path to orthodontics and the clinical philosophy he's built along the way. Dr. Pickard's journey took him from building roads and competing as a U.S. ballroom dance champion, to a career in petroleum engineering at Exxon, before ultimately finding his way to dental school at UCLA and orthodontic training at Baylor. That engineering mindset never left, and it shows in how he approaches clinical work. Key highlights from this episode:• Why Dr. Pickard chose self-ligating brackets from the start and has never looked back, including his wire sequencing philosophy and how he thinks about torque control• His approach to blending braces and aligners in the same treatment plan, and why that flexibility has opened doors for patients who once said "no" to braces• How efficiency in orthodontics isn't about speed. It's about quality, smart scheduling, and empowering your team• The case for (and against) indirect bonding, and how working with models made him a sharper bracket positioner• Building a three-location practice while protecting work-life balance in a tight-knit university communityDr. Pickard's story is a reminder that the road to orthodontics looks different for everyone, and that a commitment to quality, whether you're building roads or straightening teeth, makes all the difference.

The Case for Going Digital with Dr. Bryn Cooper
Dr. Bryn Cooper is back for her second appearance on the GC Orthodontics Exchange. The Houston-based orthodontist, who opened her practice over a decade ago plasterless, paperless, and fully digital, joins host Michael Wilgus for a deeper dive into the world of digital orthodontics. In this episode, Dr. Cooper shares her journey from beta-testing 3D printers before the competition existed to running two fully digital practice locations today. She breaks down the clinical realities of indirect bonding and aligners, where each modality shines, and what she's learned from using seven different jig systems throughout her career. Dr. Cooper also tackles the "efficiency" conversation head-on — pushing back on the idea that reducing appointments is the whole story, and making the case that patient experience has to be part of the equation. In this episode, you'll learn: Why Dr. Cooper went 100% digital from day one and what that looked like before the technology caught up The real difference between planning in a digital environment vs. placing brackets chairside Where aligners fall short and when braces deliver more predictable results How to think about efficiency beyond just chair time and appointment reduction Whether you're just beginning to explore digital workflows or looking to refine your existing approach, this conversation is packed with honest, practical insights from a clinician who's been doing it longer than most. And if you haven't caught Dr. Cooper's first episode yet, make sure to go back and give it a listen!
