BU? okay~ i was wondering did u do a program there? i heard
it's a little expensive there.. was it a positive experience?
and i agree with cad/cam. it's a big step foward for dentistry.
I haven't used it in dental school yet but looking forward to master it.

chao~~

I'm two weeks into my first year of Prosth at Tufts and I'm going to tell you it's a LOT of work. I'm in the lab now working. Very busy. I LOVE it though. there's so much to know. So much to learn and so much reading to do.

You have to be 100% sure though. I can see why so many people think this is a drag but for me I look forward to coming to school every day.

My advise is to contact the residents at the programs you're applying to and see what the strengths and weaknesses are. Pick and choose where you're going to go carefully. Make sure you're exposed to everything. Removable, fixed, implants, etc. I'd recommend finding a program where you'll be doing your own lab work - it really helps you think about a case not just from a clinical aspect but also a lab and functional aspect!

Hope this helps.
