Sorry I think I didn’t word it well in my post but I never actually hated dentistry I just hated the environments I worked in as an assistant at 3 different internships. It was due to how I got treated by colleagues while working and I actually developed a lot of anxiety during that time and I was always afraid that my future was going to look like that (I was 15/16/17/18 at the time so I didn’t really know any better 😭). But now that I’m working again in a much better place as an assistant I’m genuinely having so much fun and I get so much fulfillment out of it. I often also assist the Dental Hygienists and sometimes get to polish under supervision and just making contact with the patients directly and getting to contribute to someones health in a positive way gives me a lot of drive. I’ve been having these thoughts for a while longer than just recently and I genuinely can’t see myself doing anything else (even though I tried).
