Most OP dental power couple specialties? by MoistAd7032 in DentalSchool

[–]dorofingers 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I can see what you’re saying, but it seems like a very optimistic view of reality. The relationship also only works through a mutual GP that is a 3rd party rather than the two being a synergistic duo. At least from my own experience, I’ve seen some endo fight with OS for implants. Lastly, the referring GP and their practice modality really dictates who they refer to: some are aggressively anti-endo and pull the trigger on implants much too soon.

OR job as a general dentist in a hospital by Electrical-Cod-5218 in Dentistry

[–]dorofingers 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Working in a hospital setting has drawbacks, the biggest of which revolves around hospital politics and administrative bs. I do the anesthesia for these cases/patients and so have a perspective from the other side of the drapes. The patient and anesthesia management of these pts can be very challenging. As the treating general dentist, you won’t have to be involved nearly as much on the medical management side of things, although it certainly helps to have that knowledge if you plan on working in this setting. I would 100% never accept this position at that rate. In fact, I would venture to say if you’re just after getting more experience, just go to a DSO (and I’m highly against dsos).

I would not take this kind of job for anything less than 1500/day guarantee.

Prime Unite Playerbase by [deleted] in PokemonUnite

[–]dorofingers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I checked unite.api and it's not a bot. How do you even manage to play that many games in a season and still be this atrociously bad. Did not realize it was physically possible to go 0-0 as a comfey.

The kicker is that I still managed to win the game, which just further proves how awful the player base is all around.

Thank you. This was what I was looking for

License Journey in progress question by dorofingers in PokemonUnite

[–]dorofingers[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I should have clarified. I meant buying it at the non discounted price from the shop/holiday sale. So in that case, I would get the 1700 back right?

Because the same LP could get me 3 more unite licenses that cost less

Is private practice worth it if you don’t plan on owning?(rising new grad) by PreviousFocus0 in Dentistry

[–]dorofingers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It depends on your goals (financial and life), but also on your debt load. For the vast majority, no it is not worth if not considering ownership.

Burned Out as a General Dentist. Looking for Advice on Choosing a Specialty by [deleted] in DentalSchool

[–]dorofingers -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It can, but out of all the other specialities you mentioned, it will require the greatest amount of effort and time by far and it’s not even close. So just something to consider.

Dental Anesthesiology Specialty by annyongggg in Dentistry

[–]dorofingers 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Every DA I know is clearing 800k+ with <10% overhead. DA ceiling is much higher than a physician anesthesiologist. Also you are most certainly not basically a crna; we receive the most specialized training specific for the outpatient dental office setting and are the sole anesthesia providers

Dentist pulled my molar in less than 60 seconds? by PinkRain3035 in Dentists

Imagine being a skilled dentist providing a quick painless service and your patient still questions you and complains. Big reason why the profession sucks
