Send us Fan Mail Scared of implementing AI in your dental practice? Dr. Tom Rutner is here to walk us through the pros & cons of using AI, and help us learn how to implement in a way that doesn’t replace us, but empowers us✨ Dr. Rutnery has successfully integrated AI across nearly every part of his dental operations, from diagnostics to documentation, with a focus on implementation strategy and team mindset. What started as curiosity during dental school turned into a passion after seeing the remarkable ROI increase from his first AI tools. He describes himself as a pragmatic implementer who keeps turning into an all-in innovator. Dr. Rutner owns three dental practices in Northern California, bridging both private practice and Medi-Cal care. A graduate of Columbia University College of Dental Medicine and former class president, he’s known for blending pragmatic strategy with forward-thinking innovation. Outside of dentistry, Dr. Rutner enjoys golfing, cheering on the 49ers, and spending time with his wife, their toddler, and golden retriever, as they prepare to welcome a new baby later this year. ✨Connect with Dr. Rutner: Website: https://miguelstanley.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/drmiguelstanley/ Huge thank you to our educational partner, Toothy AI for making this episode possible!
