New worst movie idea ever - Asian dentist with parents angsty for grandkid meets prs resident on crappy premed forun.
This is so funny for so many reasons, but I think youre a relative new person to the forums so I'll keep my mouth shut 🙂
And yeah, my Indian parents would probably freak the **** out.
Ive been here a long time lady. I know wuts up, but easy rotation means lots of downtime to laugh at premed problems

2 words: Devon . Yummmm.

No need to be rude about it. Thanks.
Lol. Why?
My lawyer and physician told me to not to discuss it any further. I am to take deeeep breaths and thinking calming thoughts. Deep breaths. Calming thoughts.
San Diego/San Francisco > NY > Chicago. END OF DISCUSSION.
LOL. I love Cali. but for now New York will have to suffice.
Snooze. Everyone should leave my concrete jungle and stop complaining. More pizza for fancy! 😀

Deep dish is not pizza, it's a casserole. If pizza isn't NY style, don't even bother.
If you like her/him so much why don't you marry her/him? And serve pizza at yo wedding.
a CA person stuck in AZ. Why are all the best cities in the US have the stupidest politics?
to get back on topic:
MD-oral surgery: 6 years, more experience in other fields of medicine, more geared towards academic hospitals
DDS-oral surgery: 4 years, more geared towards private practice since you're out earlier
both make good money, I dont think I've ever seen a non-MD oral surgeon get paid significantly less. Then again I'm a general dentist and not an oral surgeon. That one CMistry guy is an oral surgeon I believe, you can PM him for more details

pizza sucks in general. The only italian foods I like are gelato and tiramisu. You know sugary foods are good when even dentists like them.
umm.. osso bucco; risotto; and pastas all day long. Bury me in a mound of carbs and cream.
Haha. I'm just a fatty. No one could fave this fatty. He is too much for one person!
I'm a "she," and I have a hunch that fancy doesn't roll that way. (Nor do I.) Thanks for the laugh, though. I haven't heard that one since I was like 8 years old.
Wrong. In dentistry, it is common to pay for fellowships/residency like orthodontics etc.

This is true. AEGD/GPR give you a $40k-$50k stipend. Oral Surgery residencies also give you a $40k-$55k stipend.
However the majority of non-GPR/Oral Surgery residencies require you to pay tuition while attaining doing a residency program
Specialists in dentistry are often asked why they charge so much, the hefty tuition in residency is part of a reason why.
edit: I think sublimizing was referring to the OMFS residencies that dont charge tuition, in which he is correct in the first place

Thanks grover. As stated above, I was referring to OMFS, which I would have thought to be obvious from both the title of the thread and the fact that the person I was talking to referenced an OMFS program specifically... Additionally, the term resident refers to someone who does hospital based advanced training...and really only applies to MD/DOs...the fact that some dental education programs have misappropriated the word doesn't make their usage correct. There are only limited dental advanced education programs that are solely hospital based. All of these programs pay a tuition. Now let's stop being snippy and get back to what matters...crushing student debt.
