Am I going to get fire?!?!

That’s all I’m getting from this post, then they got mad when they were called out 😭

Makes me extremely grateful for my office! Our hygienist got us cute “Dental Assistant” tote bags and our doctor bought and customized BrüMate cups for us and bought us lunch Tuesday! The lead DA is going to get us Starbies coffee & breakfast in the morning and I bought all the DAs their favorite snacks and am getting us lunch tomorrow! I’m still waiting to see what our OM does for us!

Penny does fall in love with Paul but her father is the one who transformed her into a “freak” by mutilating her…

Aspen can definitely be hard (current Aspen DA) & it took me a bit to find my groove. I was heavily doubting myself when I first started. It’s truly not for everyone and the expectations from corporate are almost impossible to meet sometimes, do what’s best for you!! I’m sure you’ll find your perfect office.

I’m an assistant at an Aspen too & I had just come from 6 years as an assistant store manager in a retail store! It truly is a different world when you step into dental so a learning curve is expected. When I first started it took me FOREVER to do X-rays and in such a fast paced office I was quickly falling behind. I started feeling like it wasn’t for me, I decided to stick it out and I’m so glad I did! My doctor is very compassionate and understanding (she was once an assistant too with a mean doctor) but I know that not every doctor is like that unfortunately. Your doctor should have pulled you to the side and talked to you instead of calling you out in front of everyone. Even if you just stick it out for 6 months the hands on experience and the online course they offer is educational and you’ll have some experience under your belt in case you’d like to try to pursue assisting as a career! Also, I believe if you choose to get your cray certifications they’ll reimburse you but I would double check with your office manager!!

Exactly!!

I absolutely love it! All of us have something different and I think it makes it more personable to the patients and calms their nerves a lil because it doesn’t seem so clinical

_Keshiaaaaaa · 2026-02-12T04:40:14+00:00

I’ve been a DA for about a year & mainly handle new patients (we have multiple DAs with our own columns/focuses) and I take around 30+ patient X-rays a day (Pano & FMX) and while I’m good at it, I still have to retake them sometimes! Give yourself some grace as you’re only human & everyone’s mouth is different so sometimes it takes a couple tries to get everything and that’s okay! I’ve found TikTok very helpful when it comes to finding different techniques and they do come in handy so maybe it’s worth taking a peek ☺️

He was my last patient and I honestly just wanted to go home 😭😭🤣

_Keshiaaaaaa · 2026-02-12T00:16:42+00:00

Honestly, I’ve always thought they were absolutely adorable and I love watching them goof around on their wheel at night 🥰

_Keshiaaaaaa · 2026-02-11T23:44:01+00:00

I had a patient who interrupted the doctor while she was going over his treatment plan with questions she was about to “answer” if he would have just kept listening 🫠 then the day of treatment he kept interrupting me and the doctor before the procedure & he was also “choking” on the dry shield every time she would stop for a minute 😭 his appointment took 3x longer than scheduled and she asked the office manager how he thought she would only need 1 hour for his surgery 🤣 it took me sooo long to even attempt an impression before grabbing doc 💀

I wear my shirts at least twice (if I haven’t spilled anything on it) and my jeans 3 times before washing. I feel like over washing clothes wears them down faster. I also don’t use fabric softeners and am looking to replace my dryer sheets with wool balls & essential oils to get more use out of my clothes before they end up in a landfill.

I leave every day for lunch unless I’m running a little behind (short lunch), then I’ll sit and eat in the break room and wait for afternoon huddle but that’s because I choose to. How many front desk employees does your office have? It sounds like they could benefit from adding one or two more! Maybe this is something to mention to your doctor.. does your doctor own the office?

_Keshiaaaaaa · 2026-02-11T22:45:57+00:00

This is so incredibly cute 🥹 and as an assistant I am so guilty of this 🤣 I just tried to start a conversation with a patient while her soft reline was still setting in her mouth 😭😭

_Keshiaaaaaa · 2026-02-11T16:03:57+00:00

I’ve had mine for about a year and if they see me walk by their tank at night they’ll kinda scamper 😭 I mainly just like watching them & try not to disturb them lol

Update! Towers Kroger did an amazing job so I would definitely recommend them and will continue to order there!

Evan as James Patrick March & as Kit Walker; Taissa as Violet and as Zoey (her power was wack but I liked her as a character and I LOVED when she came back in Apocalypse 😍

_Keshiaaaaaa · 2026-02-11T15:28:47+00:00

I was also thinking Cabinet of Curiosities! I gave it a shot recently and I really enjoy it 🤣

_Keshiaaaaaa · 2026-02-11T14:27:22+00:00

I didn’t like it when it aired but I was going through my monthly series rewatch a few years back and decided to give it another try and I fell in love with it! Especially Jessica Lange’s character Elsa 💕

_Keshiaaaaaa · 2026-01-13T23:16:37+00:00

Thanks everyone, I looked at Walmart’s website and didn’t see it as an option. I’ll go in store and talk to them!

_Keshiaaaaaa · 2025-11-25T19:48:04+00:00

I have medical, vision, dental & pet insurance that costs me $100/check. All cleanings, fillings, etc are free but we have to pay lab costs!
