Just an observation

Members don't see this ad.

Why is that most of the dental students like to identify themselves with dentisty

I mean like

toothlaw,dentisthusband,dentalhusband,toothmail,dent2003,freshsmile, dds-fight,dentist4u,dentalindia, smartdentist,superdent, smiledentist,toothguy,molar2molar,anotherdent,compudentist etc.

Others who are non-dentists dont seem to be so obsessed about their identity..did anyone else notice that ?

 

[SiMpLy IrReSiStAbLe]

some people on the medical forum do have it too, Md2binTn. medicine2006 etc...

A few but not a lot, not that I have a problem with it, its just an observation.

hi post-it

identify ourselves with dentistry?? hmm...methinks the obsession in that aspect will last only as long as the tests are looming near! after that we will all hopefully have a life outside of our books and SDN!!!!😛

 

[toothmail]

Greene Vardiman Black

The most commanding personality in dentistry in the 19th century was Greene Vardiman Black. He provided the first comprehensive systematization, classification and nomenclature in operative dentistry. Through years of meticulous research, he produced the first balanced silver amalgam restorative material. He did exhaustive research and wrote standard textbooks on Dental Anatomy, Operative Dentistry and Pathology. He developed teaching aids and methods. He instigated curricular changes in dental education -- and the list goes on.

I copy pasted that paragraph from the link posted above it, so I wasn't the one doing the research. But it wouldn't surprised me that he went into all fields of dentistry back in the days.....
