Dr. Thomas Dudney is an aesthetic dentist who has run a private practice in Birmingham, Alabama for over 40 years. Despite his extensive experience in the practice, he is constantly learning new things and leaning into what he doesn’t already know so he can be better equipped to educate both patients and fellow dentists. 

We had the best time chatting with him about his Midwinter lecture topics, including:

• Indirect Restored Materials, Adhesives & Cements 
• Sleep dentistry 
• Airway obstruction
