I am a Pediatric Dental Assistant & it can be a lil hectic at times because of the kiddos but I love it🦷💕 lol. Endo seems so chill, I love it! It’s so interesting to see other offices

It is chill unless the doctor can’t find a canal, an instrument gets stuck, or the patient is dentalphobic 😅 and also if we get like 3 emergency patients at the end of the day 😬 I applaud you for being in pediatrics 👏🏼

I work at a general dentist office, always curious how specialist run their offices. Love learning about other DAs and how they assist vs mine. My office gets crazy busy running multiple columns. Someday I may want to transition into a more relaxed role. When we do our rcts it’s close to the same set up just not a cbct and that expensive microscope lol Awesome video! 👍🏻

Your video popped up on my feed and I had to watch! I worked in Endo for nine years, straight out of my dental program in CA. My Dr is retiring in April but we officially closed the practice on 3/21. I miss it! I recently started in general, still private office setting, and it’s a different ballgame for me to go from routine rcts all day to rcts/crown prep, fillings, extractions, charting in a new system but I’m starting to enjoy it. But seeing this video made me miss my Endo office. Stay blessed! 🦷 ❤

maybe it is not the same type of 3D x ray? Our CBCT only captures one side of the mouth at a time (like the UR, UL, LL, and LR) But it allows us to see the bone loss more clearly and where the canals are and how many canals a tooth has :)

Lol Thank you! I worked hard on that xD and yes, we get alot of “high profile” patients, don’t work with insurance, and charge a pretty penny per exam/procedure. So we gotta make sure our office is high quality and clean from every nook and crany 🧹 and even though we have the CBCT 3D x ray machine, we still take a PA at the end of the procedure, and sometimes taking it from diff angles can be extremely frustrating for us as wdll😕 I feel you girl!

I did my internship at an office where I had the same problem the Dr was so rude to me to the point where I didn’t want to go anymore. She always complained about my x rays, the way I would assist and set up for her. She was never happy so every time I had to assist her or deal with her I would just ask her lots of questions and would even tell her to let me know right then and there what I’m doing wrong. And I would always remind her that I was new to this! Eventually it became a bit easier to work with her because I learned to work around her but I was never really comfortable working with her because she was still a lil mean so after I finished my intern I applied to other places and I was only at that office for 2 months (this month would’ve been 3) and thankfully I found a place who hired me. It’s funny because at the end she didn’t want me to leave because she wanted a lot of assistants there, but I didn’t feel happy working there especially because I knew I couldn’t avoid her. Well I just started my new job 2 days ago and I feel so much better! So I wish you luck! Don’t worry just because you started your intern there doesn’t mean you have to stay. You can always apply to other places once you’re done with your intern :)

Unbelievably they do! I just had to ask permission :D Of course it came with a few conditions, like filming while I'm off the clock and sending the recordings to manager for approval. and WOW! I didn't know you were a DA TOO!! :o

I’m looking into going into being a dental assistant, but for dental schooling did you go to a private dental school setting or public? I’m thinking of going into a private one but do jobs still willing to hire or take your application serious if you attend a private setting instead of a public one for schooling?

I don’t believe there’s much of a difference. I was hired based on my experience with school and externship. Though most jobs want you to have at least 1+ years experience and Edda so it can be tricky finding a job in that aspect

Ahh Endo…my least favorite dental specialty lol. It’s nice to see all the new gadgets and technology being used. I worked for an endodontist 8 years ago and he had a scope but only he can see what’s going on haha. I must have my coffee after lunch because I know I will doze off doing treatment if I dont lol.

Buen video.. Hablas español? Soy endodoncista, tiene toda la tecnología el doctor allí, tienes idea de costo aproximado de un tratamiento en un molar, y cuánto tarda de promedio en hacer un tratamiento, y cuantos realiza x día.. Si no te es molestia, agradecería tu respuesta.. Saludos

Gracias! Si habló español :) si el doctor tiene toda la tecnología. Cada tratamiento cuesta 2,500 dólares. Y vemos 5-7 personas por día, al menoz que hay un paciente de emergencia.
