This is really insightful, I haven't really thought about how generalists really do have to bounce around for all kinds of things and that can be a big let down over time for certain people

I first became interested in dentistry because of my orthodontics journey, but the broad range of things you could see and do as a general dentist interests me a lot now. I also don’t know whether I’ll be up to do another few years of not working and making money once I finally finish dental school. I think specializing is a decision I truly won’t be able to make until I get to the courses in school, but videos like this are awesome because I get to see how others went about navigating this hard decision. Dani, I really appreciated how you mentioned how important it was for you to try your best to save someone’s natural teeth. That is a good value to have as a dentist or specialist and I feel the same way.

Now, I am finishing up D2 year and gained a huge interested into endodontist as well. I’ve been battling if I will be a good applicant to apply to the endo residency since it’s so competitive . I would love if Dani could make a video about stats, gpa, and her journey when she was applying for her endo residency. Thank you so much for creating this video!

I don't know if I should be doing a dental specialist training in my country and after that coming to the UK or not doing one at all and come as a general dentist. How much does it matter in the UK to be a dental specialist from another country? Thank you!

I’m very curious, once Someone becomes a specialist, can they still go back to being a general dentist if they no longer like their specialty? Or can they also work as a general dentist part time while also doing part time specialist? ( I know idk why people would do that, but just curious)

I think going into a speciality is great if you're the type of person who wants to be amazing at 1 thing instead of being ok at 20 things. Also the multi-tasking part of general dentistry isn't for everyone.

The only thing bad about endo is that you have to do a whole lot of endo. lol. Mostly re-treats too, if you practice in most places. I realize the practice of endo is changing....presumably for the better. I do a sh*t ton of endo as a GP, but it’s also one of the few things I refer. I don’t want to do retreats. I will consider retreating my own failures to try to learn from them. That’s my rule. Endodontists usually have a great practice, and they usually make bank.I think it’s probably the best bang for your buck. I’m board certified in Pediatric Dentistry...and we need more double board certified people. Everything has changed in how we treat nonvital teeth in younger patients.

@@is-cy3zo Some residencies pay a stiped and some don't. In the late 80's when I was a resident, I got paid a little under 30K per year, and I got decent benefits. Plus I was able to have a part time private practice. I don't think most allow that today.
