c'mon we are here cuz we love dentistry.. but why?

I love dentistry cuz it's like engineering and medicine combined, it's amazing on how you use all those complicated tools and make a change in somebody's health.. (yes good oral health does improve overall health)... and plus you can have a flexible schedule.

i'm such a dork :laugh:

That fact that you get to do operations that give the patient a huge amount of pain relief with a short amount of recover time.

And the 6 figure salary, 8-5, 4 days a week with every holiday off. 😀

Hey not every dentist takes holidays off. THe oral surgeons I work for work alot of the holidays because thats when patients can have the recovery time.

Aren't they so nice! Or are they just trying to pack in another $20k in production in one day?
 
I want to be an orthodontist....
I like all the reasons in the sig, but mostly

I like art, and i feel like puttin on braces, shapping th teeth, and some facial feature, such as the lips aand chin, are making a btter face. Just like you make a better drawing or sumtin, its like molding almost, that why i like it.
 
i like the hours and the ability to work wherever i want in the country. everytime i shadowed i would go home thinkin "god, this job kicks @ss, i cant wait 😍 "...and you thought you were a dork
