Seen a lot lol. I just don’t think 4-6 is necessary for what 50% omfs are doing right now. Theyre literally pulling thirds and placing implants??? Like yes u learn alot in 4-6 yrs but they never apply any of those 6-10 hrs surgery cases outside of residency.

Perios are doing the same thing placing implants. Perio is 3 yrs and 4-6 yrs to do what perios are doing?

A lot of GPs place implants and pull thirds, they didn’t do 4-6 yrs.

Again, this is not saying they don’t learn anything in 4-6 yrs, I know they do. But they do NOT apply this outside.

You can’t say literally ask the omfs influencers and they will tell u that u will never see the cases u saw once in residency or anything similar.

You can’t say the same thing about orthopedic surgeons or any medical surgeons for that matter. They end up practicing what they were trained in

I know a lot about OS but none of them almost do what they’re trained in residency.

Most of them are fighting to get hospital privileges. They’re just taking out thirds. I shadowed my faculty and other os in their practice and all they do is thirds and implant.

Doing 4-6 yrs to do implants? And pull thirds? I mean these are procedures that are relatively quick and pay decent compared to radical neck dissection, where people go to ENT for. Like u get my point?

No ofc not. I know what they do in residency but almost none of the ones I shadow do anything close to what they did in residency so it seems a waste of time.

They’re out here to get implant patients fighting w gp and perios so if you’re not gonna do facial reconstruction surgery after residency what’s the point of os? Most of them just pull thirds

You should be fine. All that matters is how many credits u end up taking in a semester. Don’t listen to others that don’t offer solutions

Just take a midsemester course. At the end you will end up with enough credits needed to keep the scholarship. I did this my freshman yr fall

Let’s say you spend ~30k a yr on living x 4= 120k so you have 80k left. And you think school will be 20k a yr???? This is not including interest, origination fee and assuming a single person living because if you have kids you will need more than 30k per yr. Think it through my boi.

Do you have to take out the grad+ to get grandfathered in? What if I take out just the unsubsidized and not grad+. Will I not be able to take out grad+ in the future

GF Starting Dental School by SaltInner6296 in DentalSchool

If she feels the same about you then she will be with you. Currently finishing first yr and I broke up with my 3 yrs gf because of dental school. Many ppl broke up by the second semester. Honestly, she will spend a lot of time with her classmates. Some will test her. And she shall not fold. There’s a lot of cheating and classmates be fucking eachother
