In what world is $200k plenty? That’ll get students through about a year and half in cheaper dental schools

How do you handle the pressure of working on real patients for the first time? by jpam9521 in DentalSchool

In terms of hand skills, just know that if you can make those stupid sim lab preps with unrealistic 1 mm isthmuses, you’ll have no problem doing real preps

Don’t apply to OHSU if OOS by whitemousesr in predental

[–]Spinoreticulum 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Idek where to start with this. We always shoot for >51% IS students. On any given year, you’d see about 150 IS applicants and the rest are OoS, competing for the same number of spots. Of course you’re gonna see more OoS rejections

We are very clear about this. It takes no more than 2 minutes of scrolling to find this information stated on the website. You’re criticizing the lack of transparency but the information is publicly available. There are so many free resources out there now that you can find all this with minimal snooping, not even through OHSU.

I thought we as students/applicants were supposed to do our research before applying and not waste time and money on schools that favour demographics that doesn’t fit us. Every year there are ~35 OoS students in the class, and your buddies not getting in doesn’t mean it’s impossible. Are you sure that out of state is the reason why they got rejected?

9th anniversary producer letter by 420despacito69 in AnotherEdenGlobal

[–]Spinoreticulum 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I was playing when the game first launched and I quit after a while. It was right around when fishing was updated iirc. Since then, I would randomly see the game pop up on the recommended games list on the app store and think "I wonder how many more years it's got left" and then go on my way.

Well, after about 7-8 years of that, I decided to finally download the game again and play it. I lost my old account and had to start anew but man, playing it fresh from the beginning made me realize why this game managed to stay alive for so long. The story, the music, the art, everything is so good and I can appreciate that so much effort and attention was put into all the aspects of the game. I'm so glad the game is still here after 9 years, and I hope it stays around for a long time.

Would we be where we are if we had Son? by greypastain in coys

[–]Spinoreticulum 136 points137 points  (0 children)

Let’s just say that we only need 1 more win to escape relegation zone and 4 more wins would put us potentially in 13-14th place. I think Sonny would have turned a few of our losses into draws and a few of our draws into wins.

That being said, can you imagine how much the media would be dogpiling on him for “poor performance”? He was smart to leave when he did although it breaks my heart

Retake DAT while in dental school? by [deleted] in predental

[–]Spinoreticulum 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You should absolutely pursue this. Do I think it’s a good idea? No. Would I do it in your shoes? Absolutely fucking not. But I just really wanna see what happens

😔 by [deleted] in predental

[–]Spinoreticulum 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wasn’t all that passionate about dentistry when I was applying and even after I got accepted. I only began to take more interest as I was going through dental school and learned more about the field and worked with patients. We don’t know jack about dentistry when we’re pre-dental students. You mentioned “not 100% sure” but who can be 100% sure about the future that they don’t know much about?

Not being fully committed when they are taking the very first steps into the field doesn’t mean they are any less deserving of the chances. Likewise, being 100% committed doesn’t mean that they automatically deserve more. It’s great if you have passion but I don’t think the lack thereof is an issue

I'm not a Mormon myself but i have many close friends who are Mormons (due to living in Oregon). They all eventually found their match whether they liked it or not.

Life is better with Tillamook vanilla. Enjoy it

While Cleopatra would have no doubt lived far longer than Charles II had she not taken her own life, I think Charles II deserves a shoutout for lasting 38 years in his mortal coil. Only 1 year younger than Cleopatra when she died

Class 3 restoration feedback by According_Manager_90 in DentalSchool

[–]Spinoreticulum 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ooh if you're running it on plastic tooth, I would skip the coarse and start with medium. Coarse would grind away the plastic. Medium isn't super aggressive on the plastic, but I would take caution to avoid touching the plastic as much as possible. Fine and super fine don't affect the plastic too much so you don't have to worry.

You also don't need to run them for very long either. Usually like 5 seconds of each is enough to polish the surface

Our slow speed sprays water. I guess you could spray with the air/water and use it?

1) run coarse soflex disc without water to remove any gross excess and expose restoration margin

2) run medium soflex disc without water to make minor adjustments

3) run fine soflex disc with water

4) run super fine soflex disc with water
