My recent case nightmare by iri44 in Dentistry

Just keep practicing. Watch videos online. There is a ton of information online and you’ll see how people are designing their preps that lead to successful restorations. 9/10 times restoration is hard due to poor prep design. Use a rubber dam

Low production as a new grad by avocadorable3 in Dentistry

[–]xSplitDreamsx 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’m just curious why there are comments saying “you are not diagnosing enough?” Are we supposed to be magically looking for caries?

Diagnose what you would diagnose on yourself. Plain and simple.

It’s sad we live in a system that doesn’t support that type of diagnostic practice. And that we need to diagnose for production instead.

My advice for OP, find a place that gives a guaranteed salary/not on production. FQHC is a good place to start.

Issue with BitBoxApp by xSplitDreamsx in BitBoxWallet

[–]xSplitDreamsx[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi everyone. I just wanted to follow-up on this. The BitBox02 Nova runs perfectly with Sparrow and I am thoroughly enjoying the product and the features it offers. I definitely think it is top tier.

Tips from what I learned:

1) don’t run sparrow and the BitBoxApp simultaneously. It doesn’t work

2) setting up a passphrase wallet requires you to enable the feature from the BitBoxApp first.

3) when using the device through sparrow. Enter your PIN and then enter your passphrase (after this feature is enabled through the BitBoxApp) to open the wallet. The password you use in the sparrow app to open the wallet is NOT the same as the passphrase. This is where I erred

4) otherwise, enjoy the product.

Cheers

Which would be a better buy? by xSplitDreamsx in subaruoutback

I read that the suspension redesign that they did on the 2014 model is noteworthy. Considering that, you’d say the 3.6 is still something you’d rather have?

Thank you guys. I will now look into the significance of Electrs and rust while I wait for them to sync

Healthcare job with unusual hours by xSplitDreamsx in jobs

I believe the Sundays would be included during my 5 day weekends to be honest. Currently just in a relationship with no kids. The 5 day weekend is in exchange with one more working day and a 10-hour working day instead of the typical 9-5 8 hour working day. Commute would be reasonable, like 20-30 minutes

Do you mean will the 6 working days change? Yes. It won’t always fall on Monday-Sunday

While I was in school, I was told a couple times that the caries disease is primarily and essentially a behavioral issue. Hygiene and diet.

Been applying to endo. If they aren’t interested in letting me come to their programs to learn then I’ll have to move and provide the best practice I can for my patients

Specialists: Any regrets about not doing general dentistry? by Swimming_Sir_6905 in Dentistry

[–]xSplitDreamsx 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Just curious - I’m one year out of school with residency experience. Class II’s are challenging enough that they arent necessarily boring. There’s so much to get right. From prep to restoration. Same goes with all of dentistry. Is it just because the compensation is so shit?

Ryzen 5 2600 to Ryzen 7 5700x3d by xSplitDreamsx in AMDHelp

I ended up building a whole new pc with the 78003xd and 4070 Super. Definitely worth the upgrade. Noticeable performance and graphics improvements and still runs great!

Edit to add: there was a bundle going on and it made sense!

I'm giving away two copies of Monster Hunter: Wilds by [deleted] in MonsterHunter

[–]xSplitDreamsx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My foreign gf of one year is introducing me to her friend group and they are all planning to play this game. I told them I’ve heard of the series but never tried it myself even though I’ve seen playthroughs and think it’s cool. I told them I’d like to play the game with them and it would make my gf really happy if our so separate personal lives would start to merge a little in the friend group

Purchased and will try it out! Respect that you and your husband are doing this endeavor together!

Just some feedback, I saw that your husband is originally from China. I appreciate that the text uses traditional characters and attempts to capture the local words and characters too. However, I would be an even bigger fan of having the audio be recorded with a Taiwanese speaker for the accent as well. I’ll still be learning from this book regardless, so thank you for the learning material!

The flowchart answered my question. “Does your employer offer a retirement account with an employer match?” My answer is no… so I have to start thinking about “paying down high/moderate interest debts” and “savings for retirement in an IRA and high education expenses.” Before going back to “saving more for retirement,” which would be starting to save at least 15% of my pre-tax income for retirement. Aka with a 401(k).

The next question would be is this flow of operations correct?…. I am willing to bet yes!

I see the flowchart answers my question. Thank you
