My school requires me to gather 60 teeth before school starts. There are only a few dentists in the part of Hawaii where I live and I have not had much luck filling the tooth jar yet. I was hoping that someone with access to a bunch of teeth would hook me up. If anyone can, please p.m. me....and hopefully we can figure something out. Thanks......underdawg

For a small fee, I'd be happy to extract whichever of N2S's teeth you'd like to have for dental school. You probably won't want his Hutchinson's incisors though...Underdawg said:My school requires me to gather 60 teeth before school starts.

I like a challenge...send me his mulberry molars. Good luck at the end of this week or next week whenever you are taking Step 1.OMFSCardsFan said:For a small fee, I'd be happy to extract whichever of N2S's teeth you'd like to have for dental school.

To the OP: don't stress it. Get as many as you can. You can get some from your fellow classmates when school begins. As a predent this seems like a huge issue, but it really isn't.
Thanks...taking it Monday. I took another one of the NBME 200-question mock-tests today and got a 206, which is passing. I'm feeling strong...adamlc18 said:Good luck at the end of this week or next week whenever you are taking Step 1.

WHY?
my dad pulls about 700 teeth a week. If you're going to Temple then I'll have extra...for a price! 😀
I went to an oral surgeon last week and I was told by him that it is against OSHA standards to give out teeth. Anybody else run into this type of situation?Underdawg said:My school requires me to gather 60 teeth before school starts.

That's bull****. He just didn't want to mess with it.Harvey said:I went to an oral surgeon last week and I was told by him that it is against OSHA standards to give out teeth. Anybody else run into this type of situation?![]()
BTW, 60 teeth isn't nearly enough. You need that many GOOD teeth, but you have to sort through 5-6 times that many to get them.
I had a new dental student come into our clinic today and give us a jar. By 5PM, the guy had about 50 choices of perfect, caries-free anterior teeth that are nicer than any of the teeth I had to choose from for CRDTS. The people down here think they've "made it" when they can finally afford a pair of dentures. I took out 16 pristine teeth (amongst carious ones) on a lady today. I spent about ten minutes trying to convince her that a partial would be a better option, especially for the lower arch, but she wanted nothing but an empty mouth. It's crazy...toofache32 said:That's bull****. He just didn't want to mess with it.
