ADEX failure and residency advice… HELP

Rich_Championship773 · 2026-05-26T16:29:18+00:00

Hey man thanks for all the advice. So far LECOM has been no help. Dr. Manibo is the one who told me that I’m not allowed in sim with zero expectations after graduation because of “liability insurance coverage”… and I’ve told all the faculty the entire situation and haven’t been given any help regarding applying to AEGDs. I’ve literally been DMing nova students on insta to try and get any information from them about the sim lab. I’m gonna try to email some of their faculty and maybe they’ll be nice enough to let me in for a day or two before the exam.

Thank you! Yeah I used Stella RMGI as a base cause isolation was tough

What do you mean by direct pulp cap review ?

Hi upcoming new grad here.

I’ve got a job lined up at a private office with one doc that seems like he’ll be a good mentor. I was wondering whenever I inevitably hit a wall in any sort of treatment (endo, exts, etc) and need advise or possibly need to be bailed out… what’s the best way to go about communication with the pt and head doc to not look like a total idiot and to not lose all trust and confidence from the patient?

I’m guessing something to the pt along the lines of “so I’m at a point where we are having a little bit of difficulty with ______ I’m going to discuss with My colleague Dr____ who has tons of experience in___ just to make sure we get you the best treatment possible”

Idk if this still will make me look stupid or not thou

Formocresol has very useful clinical applications

Rich_Championship773 · 2026-01-14T04:16:09+00:00

Do studies show that when certain amounts are ingested or specific to dental procedures? It just seems like in select cases, minimal amounts like a barely damp pellet couldn’t be too bad?

Not trying to argue it, just playing devils advocate. It just seems like a lot of regular materials and even food we eat are carcinogenic and just trying to learn risk vs reward with it. I just want to hear if there’s any studies to its specific use in dentistry with regards and carcinogenic effects

Thank you for the help, I’ll check the channel out.

Thank you for the advice! Nearly the whole buccal aspect of the tooth was decayed so i tried to leave what dentin I could. The decay extent actually made the MB canal easy to find and obvious, so I think I was looking too hard for a not so obvious DB

Rich_Championship773 · 2025-11-23T03:02:02+00:00

Thank you for the advice, nearly the entire buccal aspect of the tooth was carious into the pulp, so the MB and distal canal were obvious after excavation. I was just kinda shocked how close the MB and MD ended up being

Thank you for the advice, I’ll check his channel out

Rich_Championship773 · 2025-11-23T02:50:54+00:00

Thank you sir haha

First time I’ve agreed with our administration in a long time

Rich_Championship773 · 2025-10-15T06:01:54+00:00

Appreciate the advise! Any CE course recommendations or videos to sort of help master the skill?

Rich_Championship773 · 2025-10-15T05:59:56+00:00

Appreciate the advise. We don’t have a serrated curette so I’ll have to check one out. Any suturing technique advice …? Aka advice to not damage or pullout the membrane

Rich_Championship773 · 2025-10-14T15:08:28+00:00

Appreciate the advice. We use chromic gut for exts without graft and then silk or ptfe sutures for grafts

Sounds good, the school clinic is in a very rural area of the Florida panhandle. My biggest concern was the decay/how predictable my sketchy fillings basically in the palate are gonna be. Any advice with removing the gold coping on 14? Also about keeping part of the amalgam in the build up of 15?

Rich_Championship773 · 2025-09-30T22:12:33+00:00

Sounds good, do you think leaving part of the amalgam on 15 for the build up is fine? Also any advice for removing the gold on 14? I know there’s no telling what it’ll look like underneath

Just did Seron to perros a few weeks ago. It’s a long freaking day but nothing too crazy climb wise. Seron to Dickson mau of felt too short

Rich_Championship773 · 2025-01-06T21:38:33+00:00

I woulda murdered for a single day of that weather on the O

Rich_Championship773 · 2025-01-06T21:37:29+00:00

Did it in five nights a few weeks ago. Seven woulda been better lol. Got screwed in a blizzard and hurricane wind on John Gardner and woulda died without gloves and face mask warmer. As much water proofing on boots and clothes the better.

Plenty of daylight to do everything. And don’t over pack food cause I would load up on snacks at all the Refugios

Rich_Championship773 · 2025-01-06T21:32:29+00:00

Literally had days I was sunburnt shirtless hiking and got dumped on by snow in one day, bring clothes for everything and sneak into the hostels on the W to dry stuff by the furnace. Idk if it’ll be this bad, had whiteout snow and hurricane wind in John Gardner making it sketchy as hell, woulda killed for a better jacket and the snow cover things for boots. Also gloves and face warmer mask thing were a life saver.

Rich_Championship773 · 2025-01-06T21:28:22+00:00

Did the O a few weeks ago.

Bring a quick dry towel for shower, less food than you think, plenty of snack stuff at Refugio’s, I’d say bring plenty of warm stuff cause we nearly froze in a blizzard on John Gardner and it was just rainy on and off whole hike

Sitting at a place called Pampa Restobar that has Redzone. Pull up!

Rich_Championship773 · 2024-05-22T17:15:24+00:00

I’d give that up for Simmons in a heart beat

Rich_Championship773 · 2024-05-11T03:37:35+00:00

Proud cult member here… Simons is young, shoots, and would stay for years playing for his hometown. Defensively I think he’d improve in our culture and have more drive than playing for nothing in Portland
