If I didn’t know the meanings of these dental terms, they’d be great baby names. Don’t you agree? - Zinc Oxide Eugenol, but ZOE for short - Amalgam, Art for short - Supernumerary or Super - Maxillary or Max - Dentine (no need to shorten) - Overjet is a really cool name -

This has to be the most infuriating thing I’ve read in a very long time. Why would you employ people and then start to cook up stories when it’s time to pay? If you sent this anonymous message, send me a DM with more details.

Fun fact: There are over 201,000 dentists working in the United States today, making dentistry one of the top jobs in the country. Oral & maxillofacial surgeons are among the best-paid dentists, with an average salary of $237,570. Will this make you consider OMS as a specialty?
