Hiya,
I'm a dental student...and it makesstudying, especially in clinics,way more difficult than it should be.
Ever had an impression taken of your mouth? Yeah, the ones that make you gag and are very uncomfortable? Try doing those and being an emet. Not fun. I also have had to have other inexperienced students practise on me!Fiddling aroundthe back of a patients throat? Not too good either. Also,I've been desensitised to the sight of v* slightly, sincethere's always some outside the frontdoor of thedental hospital to greet you in the morning!I have also witnessed patients come into practices various times complaining of the bug they had, or that they feel ill, or that they've v* the night before. And I can't imagine being face to face with that...
But for me at the end of the day, I've wanted to do this for a long time and I've worked hard to get where I am. I went to get treatment purely because I knew it was going to make practising dentistry hard. I love what I'm doing and for that reason I just go for it.
If you really wanta career in medicine or healthcare, I think you find you just deal with it. I haven't had witness anyone v* yet, but I suppose when the time comes, you just deal, cause there is no other option.Edited by: junglemonkey
I traded my dreams for this mess of memories,
And they just stopped working for me.
