Episode TitleDC Periodontist - Dr. Armin Abron
Episode SummaryEvery so often a guest walks in with a résumé that makes you sit up straight. Dr. Armin Abron is one of them — a periodontist and implant surgeon at DC Perio & Implants in Washington, DC, born in Germany, trained at UNC and Columbia, a former faculty member and published researcher with his own Wikipedia page. In this episode of the All In Practice Growth Podcast, host Shane McElroy digs into the surgical craft most patients never understand: how you regrow bone that gum disease destroyed, why healthy gums are the frame that makes an implant beautiful, and what everyone chasing full-arch tends to get wrong.
It's equal parts clinical masterclass and good conversation — with a World Cup “This or That” round, a Fourth of July check-in from the capital, and a Back to the Future trivia game to close it out. If you've ever wondered when a tooth can still be saved versus when it's time for an implant, this one's for you.
What You'll Learn* The winding path into periodontics — from placing mini implants in college research to a three-year surgical residency * Bone vs. tissue: why periodontists grow bone where the implant should go, and how gums frame the final result * The real causes of gum recession — clenching and grinding, aggressive brushing, genetics, and orthodontics * Three modern gum-grafting options: your own palate tissue, donor tissue, and the minimally invasive Pinhole technique * How LANAP laser therapy treats gum disease at the source and lets the body regenerate its own attachment * Why Dr. Abron often places six or more implants in full-arch cases instead of the classic four * Why patients with failing teeth so often feel dramatically better the same day * Where metal-free ceramic implants fit — and why demand is patient-driven * The mouth-body connection: oral health’s links to diabetes, pregnancy outcomes, nutrition, and social wellbeing as we age
About the GuestDr. Armin Abron, DDS, MS is a periodontist and implant surgeon and a partner at DC Perio & Implants, one of the capital's leading periodontal practices, with locations at Farragut Square and Eastern Market. Born in Frankfurt and raised in Heidelberg, he earned his B.S. and D.D.S. at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and completed his M.S. in Periodontology with implant training at Columbia University. A former UNC periodontics faculty member, published researcher, and recipient of the Mel Morris Award for Clinical and Academic Excellence, his clinical passions include advanced bone reconstruction, full-arch implants, metal-free ceramic implants, and minimally invasive, tissue-preserving techniques. A recurring theme in his patient reviews: he personally calls patients at home the evening after surgery to check on them.
Episode Highlights* “World Cup This or That” — a rapid-fire opener on the biggest upsets and who takes the Golden Boot * The bone-vs-tissue debate, and why beautiful gums are what make an implant look natural for decades * A candid patient moment: recession, night guards, and why bonding masks the problem instead of fixing it * Pinhole and LANAP demystified — minimally invasive care that's transformed the patient experience * Full-arch philosophy: planning for the long haul, because a stool on three legs isn't a chair on four * The confidence transformation of full-arch — nutrition, function, and getting a smile back * Why oral health becomes more important with age, and its quiet role in staying social and connected * A Back to the Future trivia round to close — Einstein the dog, 88 miles per hour, and all

The Questions Men Are Too Afraid To Ask, with Denver Plastic Surgeon Dr. Eric BarkerAll In Practice Growth Podcast | A different perspective on the dental and medical industries — no script, no filters.
Episode SummaryHost Shane McElroy goes off the dental beat for a candid, no-filter sit-down with Denver plastic surgeon Dr. Eric Barker of Peak Plastic Surgery Center — tackling the cosmetic and body-contouring questions men are usually too shy to ask. From VASER liposuction versus traditional lipo and stubborn male love handles to gynecomastia, GLP-1 and Ozempic weight loss, loose skin, the real story behind the Brazilian Butt Lift, breast implant exchange, and arm lifts, Dr. Barker delivers straight answers and a masterclass in natural-looking results and patient-first care.
One-Line SummaryA Denver plastic surgeon answers the body-contouring questions men are too afraid to ask — VASER lipo, GLP-1 loose skin, gynecomastia, BBLs, and breast revisions, with zero filter.
What You'll Learn* Why stubborn male flanks and love handles resist diet and exercise after age 38–40 — and what actually fixes them * VASER liposuction vs. traditional liposuction explained with the memorable "grapes on the vine" analogy * How awake, high-definition VASER contouring can drop revision rates from as high as 1 in 3 down to around 2% * Gynecomastia and male chest contouring: why "man boobs" can persist even after major weight loss * What GLP-1s and Ozempic do to skin elasticity — and why rapid, massive weight loss leaves loose, hanging skin * The truth about the Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL): fat transfer vs. implants, safety, and natural contouring over size * Breast implant lifespan, exchange, and revision surgery — what to plan for every 10–15 years * Arm lift (brachioplasty) for sagging "bat wing" upper-arm skin * Why a Ritz-Carlton-style patient experience matters as much as the surgical result
About Dr. Eric BarkerDr. Eric Barker is the founder of Peak Plastic Surgery Center in Denver, Colorado. Raised in Rapid City, South Dakota, in a healthcare-centered family, he played four years of college football before earning his medical degree at the Medical College of Wisconsin. He completed combined General Surgery and Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery training at Rush University Medical Center and John H. Stroger, Jr. (Cook County) Hospital in Chicago, training under noted breast reconstructive surgeon Dr. Anuja Antony and prominent cosmetic surgeon Dr. John Q. Cook. He pursued additional cosmetic training with award-winning surgeons Dr. Rocco Piazza and Dr. Marcello Antunes at the Piazza Center in Austin, Texas, then opened Peak Plastic Surgery in Denver in 2019. He is known for natural-looking, high-definition body-contouring results and a concierge, patient-first approach.
Memorable Moments* "Grapes on the vine" — Dr. Barker's analogy for why VASER preserves the skin's framework instead of tearing through it like traditional lipo. * Standing patients up at the end of an awake procedure to mark and refine results with gravity in play — a key reason for his low revision rate. * Why he turns away patients who want an oversized BBL: he contours for shape, not size, and won't sacrifice the whole silhouette for one area. * The reminder that breast implants aren't permanent — plan for an exchange or revision every 10 to 15 years.

SEO Is Dead, Long Live AI Search: Getting Found on ChatGPT with Michael Notbohm of Askable
Episode SummaryYour patients have stopped Googling and started asking. In this episode of the All In Practice Growth Podcast, host Shane McElroy reconnects with longtime friend and former BioHorizons implant-sales colleague Michael Notbohm — now CEO and founder of Askable (askable.dev), an AI visibility platform helping practices get found on ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews.
Shane and Michael unpack the seismic shift from keyword-based search to conversational AI recommendations, why being absent from AI results is the modern equivalent of missing from the Yellow Pages, and the concrete steps practices can take today to win their local market. It's an honest, funny, no-script conversation between two guys who've sold a lot of implants together and seen the digital landscape shift firsthand.
What You'll Learn* Whether SEO is truly "dead" — and how AI search and SEO can still work in unison * Michael's "credit score" analogy for AI visibility: AEO (website framework) + AEIO (authority and sentiment) * How AI assembles a recommendation in seconds by scanning reviews, directories, and online sentiment * Quick wins most websites miss: FAQs, schema markup, structured data, and llms.txt files * Why an AI mentions tracker can surface problems (like a tough front-desk experience) that never show up as a formal review * The "modern day gold rush": why early adopters become nearly impossible to displace * Why dental searches are exceptionally high-intent and convert fast * Where dentistry's AI future is heading — agentic AI, AI scribes, X-ray reading tools, and a centralized practice "brain" * The real hurdle to adoption: practice-management software integration and security guardrails
About the GuestMichael Notbohm is the CEO and founder of Askable (askable.dev), an AI visibility and optimization platform. A self-described "forever entrepreneur," Michael's path runs from selling Yellow Pages and YellowPages.com early in his career, through nearly a decade selling dental implants at BioHorizons (where he and Shane worked the same region), into real estate and ultimately AI. After an 18-month deep dive learning from a former 15-year Salesforce engineer, he built Askable to help dental and medical practices get discovered in the new era of AI-driven search.
Episode Highlights* The Yellow Pages parallel: being invisible on AI today is like not being in the phone book a generation ago * "Product-market fit is everything" — how the right idea at the wrong time still fails, and why timing matters * AEO vs. AEIO explained, with a roughly 60/40 weighting toward authority over website framework * Why AI "doesn't see" your beautiful website — it indexes content and weighs your reputation * The free Askable audit: a no-credit-card visibility score with an itemized action plan, including competitor gap analysis * Claude vs. ChatGPT vs. Perplexity for everyday use — and the rapid-fire pace of new model releases * Enhancement over replacement: how AI reshapes roles rather than simply eliminating jobs * A friendly closing debate: who was really better at selling implants back in the BioHorizons days?
Sponsor & Event: All In AI Dental SummitThis episode's guest, Askable, is a proud sponsor of the All In AI Dental Summit — the standalone Day 3 of the Bulletproof Dental Practice Summit, and the first AI workshop of its kind built specifically for dentistry. Hosted by Drs. Peter Boulden and Craig Spodak, the main summit runs August 7–8, with the AI-focused Day 3 on August 9 at The Phoenician in Scottsdale, Arizona.
The focus is operational and lifestyle rather than clinical: how to actually use AI to reclaim time, grow revenue, and future-proof your practice — taught by real dentists who've implemented it. Michael Notbohm will be appearing live. Seats are limited.

How a Dentist Built a $1.3M Practice — Then Sold It to Build an AI Receptionist
All In Practice Growth Podcast with Shane McElroy · Guest: Dr. Bethel Ozumba (Dr. B-Bay), Founder & CEO of Enamly
A Different Perspective on the Dental and Medical Industries — No Script, No Filters
Episode OverviewIn this episode of the All In Practice Growth Podcast, host Shane McElroy sits down with Dr. Bethel Ozumba — better known as Dr. B-Bay — a Houston-based dentist turned healthcare-AI founder. Born in Nigeria and raised in Houston after immigrating at age eight, Dr. B-Bay scaled a private dental practice from scratch to $1.3 million in collections in a single year, then sold it in April 2025 to go all in on technology.
Dr. B-Bay is now the founder and CEO of Enamly (enamly.ai), a HIPAA-mindful AI voice receptionist that answers dental practice calls 24/7, books appointments in real time, and integrates with virtually any practice management system. He's also a hip-hop artist, and the conversation moves easily from music and immigrant grit to entrepreneurship, AI adoption in dentistry, and where the technology is headed next.
Dr. B-Bay will also join Shane as a panelist at the All In AI Dental Summit on August 9, 2025 — Day 3 of the Bulletproof Dental Practice Summit in Scottsdale, Arizona.
What You'll Learn in This Episode* How Dr. B-Bay scaled a startup dental practice to $1.3M in collections in year one — and the unconventional pricing and marketing moves behind it * Why he sold a profitable, growing practice to chase a bigger calling in AI * How an immigrant background built a higher tolerance for risk, stress, and hard work * The real difference between “automation” and “AI” — and why most practices already use one without realizing it * Why missed phone calls quietly cost dental practices tens of thousands of dollars * How an AI receptionist handles after-hours calls, overflow during office hours, and multilingual patients * Why integration with any practice management software (Dentrix, Open Dental, Eaglesoft, Oryx, and more) is the real moat * How AI tools like Claude and ChatGPT are becoming a “central brain” for marketing, content, and practice operations * B-Bay's predictions on when 90% of dental practices will run their own AI agents
About the Guest: Dr. Bethel Ozumba (Dr. B-Bay)* Founder & CEO, Enamly (enamly.ai) — an AI voice receptionist for dental and medical practices * Background: Born in Nigeria, immigrated to Houston at age 8; dental school graduate (Class of 2020) * Career: Trained in corporate/group practice settings (PDS, Aspen), opened and ran a startup practice to $1.3M in year one, sold April 2025 * Also: Hip-hop artist and entrepreneur with a long-standing passion for music and content creation * Based in: Houston, Texas
Key TakeawaysEntrepreneurship Comes FirstDr. B-Bay chose dentistry because it offered a faster path to entrepreneurship than other medical fields. His advice mirrors what trips up most new dentists: you're not just a clinician, you're running a business — and the sooner you embrace that, the faster you grow.
Reverse-Engineer the TimelineInspired by the idea that anyone who accomplishes something extraordinary doesn't take the conventional route, he planned aggressively. When banks said two years to break even, he asked how to do it faster — then reverse-engineered a plan to get there. He also used discounted cosmetic and implant cases early to build his portfolio, treating reduced pricing as an investment in himself rather than lost revenue.
Don't Miss the WaveWhen ChatGPT arrived, Dr. B-Bay dove in immediately — generating content, business plans, and more — because he believes you either ride a wave of innovation or get killed by it. His advice for the AI-intimidated: just start, tell it what you want, and ask it how to get there. The more you use it, the more uses you discover.
The Hidden Cost of a Missed CallA single new patient can be worth $4,000–$5,000 in the first year — and full-arch or cosmetic cases can run $30K–$60K. Patients often call after seeing evening ads, exactly when offices are closed or staff are tied up on insurance calls. If no one answers, they move on. Enamly answers 24/7, handles overflow when the phone rings three times during office hours, and supports multiple languages out of the gate.
Enhance, Don't ReplaceDr. B-Bay is clear that AI should enhance staff, not replace them — freeing the team to build better patient relationships while ensuring every call is answered. Enamly leans heavily into analytics, tracking the production an integrated practice gains. Real examples cited: one after-hours-only office added $25K+ in two to three months; a higher-volume North Carolina practice did $30K+ in the first month.
Integration Is the MoatMost AI receptionists only connect to the big PMS names. Enamly's differentiator is integrating with virtually any system — booking directly in the PMS or sending a scheduling request the office can accept or deny — plus continuous configuration (like blocking lunch breaks) based on doctor feedback.
AI as the Central BrainBoth Shane and Dr. B-Bay see tools like Claude becoming a centralized “brain” connected to every other model and API. Dr. B-Bay's power-user tip: using Claude inside an IDE (like VS Code or Cursor) unlocks far more capability than the chat interface alone. His prediction: roughly 90% of dental practices will run their own internal AI agents within about 10 years — though he suspects it'll happen faster.

Case acceptance is a growth multiplier
Understanding how to communicate treatment effectively can transform a practice just as much as clinical skill. -
The future of dentistry is collaborative
Patients—especially pediatric cases—benefit most when specialists work together instead of in silos. -
AI won’t replace your team—but it will elevate them
By removing repetitive tasks, AI allows your staff to focus on patient relationships, communication, and experience. -
