Ally, it is amazing how so many of us feel this same way, and for so long no one was talking about it. A lot of dentists do love it! That is a great question about how they think. They probably aren’t coming on this post to be able to see your question, but I have a private Facebook group called Dentist Side Gigs. I bet you’d get a lot of good answers there.

How can your words fully describe everything I and other dentists feel? It’s identical! Sometimes (all the times) I too think to myself everything would be perfect If I would just enjoy it. Instead I am usually expect the worst to happen, patients to complain about anything- schedule delays, local shots, time spent in the chair, pain after rct and ofcourse costs! I feel like I know so much more than back when I started but still I feel there is so much I do not know and worrying a lot. Also I don’t have the patience to learn new things. I guess once you spend over 6 straight years trying to study subjects you dislike your cognitive abilities are suffering.😬 It would be usefull to hear how a “happy” dentist feels about work. What are the thoughts in his head? I am really curious. Maybe somebody wants to share.

Yes, it turned out to be a hoax, but it made for a good title! But… there is some big local news here that an oral surgeon reused syringes for IV sedation since 1999! Again, another case where a normal person wouldn’t do that, but you have to be bat-shit crazy to do that to save 17 cents!

A lot of people seem to be struggling at that 10 year point. I can totally relate to the “it’s not that I can’t, I don’t want to.” I felt that way about a lot of things… like starting my own practice, for example. I can see how not giving anesthesia would be a problem. I think some states don’t allow hygienists to do that. And then there are some states where hygienists can own their own practices- you could move, LOL.

Yep, it seems any business has it’s headaches, I guess we just have to find what is worth putting up with the BS that comes along with it. For me, dentistry just seemed to have more headaches than anything else. when I talk to others in the field, I’m still convinced of that.

Glad you found the site– it’s more fun for me too! Thanks!

#1: who would sit in a dental and consciously not notice tooth aftertooth being extracted?! Come on. Was this guy on N2o lol. I don’t know, I really haven’t researched it; it sounded so far-fetched..

Love these writings girlfriend! 😀

I’m a hygienist .. Very disappointed in this field.. 10 years for me too, the last 5 have been in hygiene. I know some go on and do things other than clinical. But I’m like… BORED. I won’t even take my local anesthesia board (could have 5 years ago, but I
Didnt. Wasn’t into injecting then and I’m not now. Its not that i cant, I dont want to. I dont see myself staying in this field, so who wants a part time hygienist that never injects only for giving them an IAN. I had my own business in therapeutic massage with an office location in a nice city.. But it was difficult because I was dealing with sexual requests from clients towards employees and that was it. But I
LoOoVVvvEeDdd being a business owner. Nobody tell me what to
Do but my business advisor. Lol. Maybe that’s my calling but in a different industry. Lola you have taken the words cometely out of my mouth. I’m so glad I found this site.
