The Dr. Phil Klein Dental Podcast · 2026-03-23 · 33 min
How do you know when a clear aligner case is beyond your comfort zone, and what happens when treatment doesn't track as expected? Dr. Stout is a board-certified orthodontist from the University of Pennsylvania School of Dental Medicine who completed his orthodontic residency and Master of Science in Dentistry at the University of Washington. He achieved board certification with the American Board of Orthodontics in 2016 and is a published author in the American Journal of Orthodontics and Dentofacial Orthopedics. After practicing in Seattle and New York City for 9 years, Dr. Stout founded besmyle, a cloud-based software platform that provides a full orthodontic vertical and interdisciplinary ecosystem for modern dentistry. This episode explores the critical gap between opportunity and overreach in clear aligner therapy for general dentists. The conversation reveals why case selection expertise and volume experience create fundamental differences between specialist and general practice outcomes, and how virtual orthodontic collaboration can bridge this knowledge gap while keeping GPs in their clinical comfort zone.
