1:09 My History with Dentistry 2:34 My Undergraduate Experiences 5:00 The Appeals of Dentistry 9:42 Reasons to Avoid Dentistry

I’m 22 about to get out of the military and start college. I’m really considering this. Thank you! And I see you posted this 3 years ago, I hope you’re working with your dad now bro!

Just found your channel recently and love not only the content but your honest passion for what you do. I appreciated how you included the reasons to not pursue dentistry in this video, which was super helpful. Keep it up!

Stephan your videos keep on motivating us !!! You are so inspiring!!! You work so hard !!!

I'm really glad I came across your channel. I am envious of the great quality. I have been deciding between medicine and dentistry for the past year. I got the MCAT out of the way and plan to take the DAT this year as well. Thanks for sharing your perspective on things. Hope to see more stuff about your experience in dental school.

This video was amazing! I’m excited for what is to come 😁

Love your channel !!

You're so inspiring 🥺🌻

I’m also a dental student This video helps a lot ! Thx!

this video just inspired me to go to the right side and succeed be sucessulfelf and be some one on this life

Was just accepted into my top choice dental school yesterday and cannot wait to get started!

Your video has been very helpful! I’ve been in a very similar situation as you as my dad is also a dentist and growing up I’ve had memories of being in the office while he works. Throughout high school and the beginning of undergrad I didn’t really know what to do, but I really liked science and want to know how the body works. Right now I’m finishing junior year in undergrad and now starting to lean toward dentistry. I’ve started shadowing and volunteering at dental offices and have enjoyed watching the dentists work and help people. I’m now thinking about going to dental school. Do you think it’s worth it to go through all those years to become a dentist? Is it rewarding? I’m scared of being drained and not having a social life during those important years in your 20s. Also, I heard owning your own practice in the future might be more difficult as dentistry is becoming more saturated and insurance companies continue to open their own practices. Because of this some dentist had to go the corporate route which is fine in my opinion, but I do want to be able to own a practice at some point. Do you know some other ways to help guide me to the decision of if dentistry really is a good path for me. Sorry for the really long comment lol!

This video was so helpful! What kind of things do you recommend to practice manual dexterity as a pre-dental??

In the rest of the world right after you graduate high school you get into dental school for about 5 years and graduate with a degree and can actually work is that not the same in US?
