Dentists

You can contact your dentist's office and request a copy of your records, or you can go in person to request them. Your new dentist can also request a copy of them, but you will need to sign a release form giving your former dentist permission to release the records to your new dentist. If that's the way you go, your new dentist will have you sign the release forms, then they will send it to the former dentist for you.

People do not all recover from surgery at the same speed; it depends upon your general level of health, and the way you feel. Personally, I could return to work the day after major dental surgery. But your mileage may vary.

Good dental health is closely related to general health. It allows for proper nutrition, helps avoid infection in the body and makes one happier and more confident.

Flossing on a daily basis increases your life expectancy.

teethgap.com sells a product called teeth effect bands which will close your gap. Teeth Gap uses special Compressor bands called Teeth Effects to draw your teeth together. They provide "the pull" necessary to move the teeth quickly, and in the right direction. You stretch the teeth effect band when you put it around your teeth. Since the band is stretched out it pulls the teeth towards one another because it wants to contract.

It won't heal or cure a tooth problem, but biting on a whole clove can reduce the pain temporarily.

"Making a good salary" implies that one is employed by another. Dentists are blessed in that they can open their own practice, run it the way they want, and reap the financial rewards and personal satisfaction that comes with ownership. So, let's rephrase the question: "How do you make a good income as a dentist?" Let me just say first, that successful dentistry is not about production, procedures, productivity, or profit. Dentistry is about people! It's how you as a dentist relate to people, it's how you communicate and motivate people. Can people trust you? Can they believe what you say? Can they respect you? And can you respect others? If you can establish and maintain trust and respect with others, you can be a successful dentist. These skills apply not only to the patients but also to your clinical staff and other employees, fellow practitioners, vendors, specialists - in short, with everyone you come in contact. When you boil it right down, a dentist has nothing but his reputation going for him. Tarnish it, have people in the community saying less than flattering things about you and your practice, and you will pay for that in lost revenue, lost productivity, and lost respect in your community. Of course, you also must love performing dental procedures for the benefit of your patients, and you must become competent and efficient in providing these services. It doesn't hurt to have some familiarity with business. After all, you are a business owner. It helps if you can read and understand a balance sheet, but this must never become the focus of the practice. The focus of the practice must always be on establishing and maintaining relationships that are beneficial to the patient and productive for the practice. The most long-term highly profitable dental practices are located in or near communities that have financially afluent citizens. This doesn't necessarily mean Beverly Hills, but areas that are senior citizen retirement communities and have relatively high growth rates. Seniors as a group have more discretionary income than anyone else. They also tend to have more dental needs than most. Focus on being of service to others, realize that your skills and training are worthy of righteous compensation, and remember that most people can afford dentistry if they choose to.

Think about it... who likes going to the Dentist-

You sit down in a chair petrified of the barbaric tools and white gloves-

You are dreading the results of your x ray and wince at the thought of him drilling into your mouth-

cavities? chipped tooth?....ROOT CANAL??? no response can be good.

your gums bleed, you get injected with Novocaine that wears out too fast yet still leaves your mouth half paralyzed-

when you are finished, you stare at the evil dentist who you must actually pay for doing all this (and most often pay more than you thought bc insurance is not so generous for dental procedures)

The poor dentist had to take out $200,00 in loans and spend 5 years of his life to fix the dental problems of unappreciative patients (often with bad breath)...

It's a tough life!

One should make an effort to visit the dentist every six months for a regular check up. One can phone up their local surgery to make a dentist appointment. If one chooses to only visiting a Dentist when one gets toothache then instead of needing a small filling, one might need a tooth removed.

I am eleven, nearly twelve, and I have lost exactly 12 teeth ( I haven't lost any molars, at least I don't think I have, but one is wobbly ) and I have 12 teeth that haven't come out. All in all I have 24 teeth. It all depends on your jaw, some children have nearly lost all their teeth when some others have not last many at all.

The work a dentist can do who does not specialize. Basically, they are trained to do everything, and can choose to do whatever they feel comfortable doing.

Ex: Tooth restorations, periotontal work, cosmetic work, work on children, braces (typically only easy cases), Tooth extractions... I'm sure you get the point. If there is something a general dentist is not comfortable doing, they can refer them to the proper specialist.

To become a Dentist you will need BIOLOGY and CHEMISTRY as a minimum

then some universities will want another science or a maths and others will not mind which one you have

Although you should choose something related to dentistry

Good luck.
