Hi everyone, I’m looking for a good dental conference for start ups or business management (scheduling, marketing etc). A super plus if it’s pediatric dentistry focused. Thanks!

Hello everyone, I'm seeking support from fellow moms. I will be PGY1 this July and I have a 5.5yo and 20 months old children at home. I do some family and an au pair at home to help. I know I signed up for this and I am preparing myself for it. I feel ready but still anxious about the whole...

THANK YOU for taking the time to reply. Very informative. =)

May I clarify- If I already have a PASS application on file with LOR's, everything... I am able to submit it to the programs for POST MATCH through the NMS website? Or do I need to ask the faculty to send me a copy of their LOR to email it from my personal email? Thanks in advance.

Thanks for your reply and insight. Now I feel like it's like a strategy game because if I get interviewed early, matching doesn't take place until jan. The program is pedo.

Hi everyone, Does anyone know if there's a difference if we submit out application early vs by deadline for the program? My application is considered complete at the moment but I could always tweek and try to improve it more etc. The deadlines are not until Sept-Nov and I am pretty sure they...

this is a bit off topic... would it be "bad" to email the programs to inquire about application status. I'm waiting for a couple and part of me has this feeling that if the interviews were to happen, invites would have been sent out by now. Then again, I'm trying hard to put myself out there and...

not sure if it's true, but i heard that if you order through the reps and if you do get Rx, then they'll adjust your loupes for free during your 4 yrs in school. Might wanna check with the rep though. If you "need" to wear glasses and can't wear contacts, what should you do though?

I managed with glasses in gross lab fine. double glove; i used vinyl and latex, labcoat and mask. Some of my classmates had eye irritations from wearing contacts beacause of the formaldehyde fumes. But that can be taken care of with goggles (eye safety glasses that are "required" for clinic if...

I think it's real cool how you have your mind set on a specialty already cause it shows your passion. Personal statement aside, I think you should however, give yourself more options when you get into dental school and explore other things as well. Pedo can be great, or oral surgery or...

I am a commuter. I live toward Towson and commute takes about 20 min, door to door is about 30 min. I like living off campus because I like to have my car and to be honest, there is not that much in bmore..for me at least. UMB is a great school, very diverse and it is like any city but not in...

Hi, I hope this is not a question that has already been asked before. I was hoping that someone can tell me more about how a dentist can practice in HK. I am currently a dental school ready to take my national boards part1 this summer. I am very interested at practicing dentistry in Hong...
