If you ever were considering both what made you pick the one you went with. If you were only ever considering one why didnt you consider the other.
Its not all about picking your speciality at the start, the nature of the job is also quite different which is why i ended up rejecting my dent offer.Surely though that makes it pretty hard. Having to pick a medical speciality before the start of the degree would be one very challenging task. But of course if theres too much to fit into a medical degree its bit of damned either way. Dentistry itself is also a pretty broad field with endodontics, periodontics, oral radiography, orthodontics, prosthodontics, etc
Doesnt maxfax surgery require doing the 4 year dental degree and a 4 year medical degree?
But on the thread topic, I gather you did a medical degree. What made you do it over a dental degree?
Haha. I think thats a stereotypical why to pick medicine and the stereotypes for picking dentistry is you are money hungry and lazy (as in dont want on call etc). Was hoping for actual reasons about the type of work, maybe personality factors, specific interests etc all of that type of actual reasoningso you don't have to hear 'oh so you're not a REAL doctor'
because they are different careersIf you ever were considering both what made you pick the one you went with. If you were only ever considering one why didnt you consider the other.
lol.. are you joking dude..Medicine- You save lives.
Dentistry- You save teeth or the looks of teeth.
You choose.
it was an exaggeration. but not everyone suffers always from oral health issueslol.. are you joking dude..
Do you know how much our oral health affects our overall health and how vital it is in preventing certain diseases?
Fail.it was an exaggeration. but not everyone suffers always from oral health issues
Endocarditis, Abscess, Sjogrens etc all may have or be the result of dental problems. I think people don't take oral health as seriously. I thought in the past dental hygiene was excessive but now I try to take care of my teeth.it was an exaggeration. but not everyone suffers always from oral health issues
Well yes. But you didnt get the point. I was saying that mutations like tumours cannot be treated that way. and a wider field allows a much better health. But I dont see a point to argumentEndocarditis, Abscess, Sjogrens etc all may have or be the result of dental problems. I think people don't take oral health as seriously.

Tumours can't be treated with rainbows and butterflies either. Your sentence doesn't make grammatical sense and your point is silly.Well yes. But you didnt get the point.

As you say.Tumours can't be treated with rainbows and butterflies either. Your sentence doesn't make grammatical sense and your point is silly.
