Hey everyone,
So I'll be going to dental school next Fall, very excited about that! For the Spring, I'll be taking a course to fulfill a pre-req, but would also like to take some fun classes. I've decided on a basketball class at the community college and thought I would take up either ceramics or sculpturing to develop my artistic and fine hand skills.
Which one would benefit more in terms of dental procedure and work, ceramics or sculpturing? They are both intro classes. I took ceramics in high school and enjoyed it quite a bit, but my stuff always turned out sloppy and looked ugly. If I take ceramics again, I would definitely spend more time and be more careful and precise with the clay. I'm not exactly sure what sculpting will entail, what I will be making, and if I'll enjoy it. Anyone have any opinions or experience? I guess either will do but wondering if one will help a lot more in dentistry.
I've waxed a complete tooth and have done fillings with composite and amalgam (on a model), and I feel one of these classes will definitely help. I can probably even make clay models of teeth if the teachers let's us do whatever. Thanks.
