  <description>Come join us at the Jensen Dental (https://jensendental.com/) booth during the FDLA Southern States Symposium &amp;amp; Expo (https://www.fdla.net/attendee-information) - 
June 13-14 at Signia by Hilton Orlando Bonnet Creek in Orlando, FL
Register today at: FDLA.NET
We save a conversation from the Ivoclar (https://www.ivoclar.com/en_us) Ballroom at Lab Day Chicago to release this week so if you are at Lab Day West (https://lmtmag.com/lmtlabdaywest) you can go meet Mark Hidde from WINWINGO.com (https://www.winwingo.com/). Mark comes on to talk about owning a lab and seeing the struggles to find good talent. So he created a website where labs can create a profile to look for technicians and technicians can post that they are looking for a good lab. It's a different approach to a much-needed service in our industry. 
Then we have a conversation with Chris Nevarez. Chris started his dental career with Patterson. From warehouse to customer service, Chris started to really understand the ins and outs of clinical dentistry. After his mother needed some dental work, Chris found a way for her medical insurace to help cover a lot of the cost. Now he is doing this for patients and clinics. The best part about all of this is that if more people have access to care, then that is more cases coming to the labs. 
Take it from Laura Prosser, the digital marketing manager for Ivoclar North America (https://www.ivoclar.com/en_us). She would like to invite you to start following them on Instagram. It's your chance to obtain exclusive updates on product announcements, industry news, upcoming educational events, and heartwarming stories about our local team and industry professionals. Let's get social together. Simply start following us on Instagram @Ivoclar.na (https://www.instagram.com/ivoclar.na/). We'll see you there.
 Special Guests: Chris Nevarez and Mark Hidde.
