19. Dr. Simon McDonald on Being Grateful Pt.2

Contrary to Ordinary, Exploring Extraordinary Personal Journeys

In the last episode, we began speaking with Dr. Simon McDonald, CEO and co-founder of Rhondium. Simon is a "serial inventor and entrepreneur", who has brought a number of groundbreaking inventions into the field of dentistry. You might be familiar with the V-Ring and the Tri-Clip, but his other notable inventions include the One Visit Crown and the Grip Tab. 


In part 1, Simon talked us through his inventive process and stressed that each of his creations have taken countless hours to be fully realized. He also described how he studied dentistry in the UK at King's College in London but moved to New Zealand when his first child was still young. He fell in love with the country and set up his own dental practice there. Through the years, he used the spare rooms in his practice to house the dental inventions he’s created across his career.


In part 2, we’re going to delve into some more of Simon’s inventions and explore why he is grateful for everything he gets in life.
