In this episode of MB2 Underground, Sarah and JT sit down with Frank Quinn, Executive Vice President and Managing Director of the Americas at Align Technology, the company behind Invisalign, iTero scanners, and some of the most influential innovations in modern dentistry. Frank takes us from his entrepreneurial beginnings (yes… involving ice cream franchises and gaining "250 pounds of pure passion") to his unexpected path into dental technology. He shares how early IT work during a 2000s dental boom eventually led him to Align, and how the company maintains a startup-like culture despite being a global, publicly traded leader. We get into: The evolution of Align and how the company has become a powerhouse Why the company's breakthrough materials and digital tools took years of development What keeps Align ahead in a rapidly changing dental landscape The story behind malocclusion, oral health, and why clear aligners aren't just cosmetic How modern scanning, simulation, and AI-driven workflows transform case acceptance The synergy between general dentists and orthodontists in today's digital ecosystem Frank's leadership philosophy and why listening to customers drives Align's biggest breakthroughs This episode offers a mix of insight, humor, entrepreneurial grit, and a deeper look into the future of digital dentistry.  ------------------------------------------------------------------------  Subscribe & Listen: Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/69Dz26hgC9D6YqwN8JMDBV Apple Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/mb2-underground/id1747349567 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Follow MB2 Dental on Social: MB2 Dental: mb2dental.com Instagram: instagram.com/mb2dental Facebook: facebook.com/mb2dental YouTube: youtube.com/@mb2dental LinkedIn: linkedin.com/mb2-dental
