About this episode

Welcome to the 151st episode of the Tooth or Dare Podcast with Irene Iancu (@toothlife.irene) and this week's guests Dr. Sam Low and Craig Stevens from Perio Protect (@perioprotect). 


Treating and preventing periodontal disease in patients can be hard. What if you told them it could be as simple as wearing a tray for just a few minutes per day? If that sounds too good to be true, it’s time to educate yourself on the Perio Protect Method. Hear the science behind the innovative Perio Tray™ from experts Dr. Low and Craig, and how it could benefit your practice and patients.


Samuel B. Low, DDS, MS, M.Ed


As an associate faculty member of the L.D. Pankey Institute for 25 years and Professor Emeritus, University of Florida, College of Dentistry, Dr. Low’s many years’ experience training dental professionals is evident in his straightforward, informative, and entertaining teaching style. His presentations focus on creating positive interactions between dentists, periodontists, and dental hygienists through communication skills and continuous quality improvement to enhance esthetics, tooth retention, and implant placement.


Dr. Low provides periodontists, dentists and dental hygienists with the tools for successfully managing the periodontal patient. He is past President of the American Academy of Periodontology, and current President of the Academy of Laser Dentistry. He was selected “Dentist of the Year” by the Florida Dental Association, Distinguished Alumnus by the University of Texas Dental School, and the Gordon Christensen Lecturer Recognition Award. He is a Past President of the Florida Dental Association and past ADA Trustee. 


Craig Stevens: 


During his eight years at Perio Protect, Craig has assisted thousands of offices in implementing Perio Tray™ therapy. In addition, he provides support, extra training, and any other assistance that an office requires to succeed. He is committed to helping patients attain optimal oral and overall health at home by utilizing cutting-edge technologies that extend beyond the dental chair. He enjoys his family of 5, playing the guitar, and telling way too many dad jokes than is appropriate.
