I'm beginning the process of looking into GPR/AEGDs. I think I'm looking for VA or some non-school-affiliated program (I don't want to work at a dental school that makes you do stuff like help out in preclinic or be a TA, or get cases stolen by specialty residents... but open to suggestions of school programs where this does not happen)
I'm looking to place a lot of implants, get some full mouth rehab experience, and learn 3rd molar extractions and general surgery ability well. Not really looking for a lot of cosmetic/veneer, ortho, denture, endo training.. but obviously at least some is nice because it can complement a lot of the surgical skills I would like to have if planning to do big cases.
Also, do not know how I feel about hospital programs (or anything where I'd be on call)... but if you liked the experience let me know!
And, would like this to at least a 30,000 stipend, I don't want to have another year of losing money.
I'm top ~20th percentile, 4.0 undergrad, not much extracurricular. Any suggestions/insight would be helpful!
