Relapse
Want To See
BY DR. ANDREW SARPOTDAR
elapse, once a concept to be
avoided, has been forever
transformed by a group of six
prominent orthodontists turned
rock stars. If you haven't heard of this
all-orthodontist cover band, step away
from that rock you've been sitting
under and allow me to elucidate.
When Relapse made its debut at the
inaugural Mother of Pearls Conference
(MOPC) in 2018, it was apparent the
group had captured lightning in a bottle.
Set lists expanded, as did the venues.
Relapse has gone on to headline at
the American Association of Orthodontists
Annual Session, the Invisalign
Summit and the Orthopreneurs
Summit, and continues to be a staple
of the MOPC (which was co-founded
by band members Drs. Brian Anderson
and Chris Teeters). From its original
audience of 300 orthodontists, the
band is now playing to sold-out crowds
of up to 6,500.
Relapse has incorporated multiple
genres of music and time periods, going
as far back as the '80s, but remains a
rock cover band at its core. Th e band's
foray into pop has led to guest dance
performances from the band's family
members and other orthodontists
(including yours truly).
While Relapse has gone through
changes over the years, the core
comprises six orthodontists who
are no strangers to the lecture circuit.
Dr. Doug Shaw and Dr. Akash
" Doc Ak " Pandya are lead vocalists
and dancers, Dr. Jacquee " Jaxl Rose "
Schieck is the bassist and lead vocalist,
Dr. Kyle Fagala plays the drums,
Teeters is lead guitarist and background
vocalist, and Anderson is on
keyboards.

Th e future is bright for Relapse as
it continues to redefi ne orthodontic
meeting entertainment. You can
catch the band this year at the AAO
Annual Session in New Orleans and
the upcoming MOPC in Scottsdale,
Arizona. I'll see you there! OT
Dr. Andrew Sarpotdar is a boardcertified
orthodontist in private practice
with his wife, Dr. Jenny Sun, in the greater
Phoenix area. He attended dental school
at UCLA before earning a master's degree
in orthodontics from Columbia University
in 2013. Sarpotdar is a co-founder of the
Orthodontic Pearls Facebook group,
along with its corresponding annual
meeting, the Mother of Pearls Conference,
and is a strong advocate for collegiality
and shared learning within the profession.
