[@DentalPro2021]

Your #5 wax looks like it has been done by the gods... I'm super impressed! My wax ups suck compared to yours!!! haha! great video! I'm looking forward to seeing more!

[@LauraSmiles]

DentalPro AHHHH thanks so much! You're the best and likewise!

[@zohashahid30984]

DentalPro same😩😩

[@PCLISTS]

BRO DENTAL PRO is dental school hard? im thinking of getting into it

[@mimilulu3943]

i learn from the video that all dentists have perfect teeth!!

[@LauraSmiles]

Haha if we're working on other people's teeth, we gotta have a nice smile! :)

[@AA-ec6fx]

LauraSmiles Your comment hit hard for me .. my teeth look okay but they are really inside my mouth ya know and because they got really inside my thin lips disappeared so I started filling my lips and I really hate everything about how my mouth looks & i really want to study dentistry but I'm kinda worried about that like why would people want me to fix their teeth while mine don't look good like u said you gotta have a nice smile

[@AA-ec6fx]

LUCY I wish braces can fix it but it can't. I've went to as many dentist as I can and they all said the same shit that there's no way they can push my teeth outside. Sadly like I said my dentist have already fucked my teeth enough they all suggested fillers for the outer appearance which I did but still fillers doesn't change how fucked my smile and teeth are

[@azimamal1614]

Hahah im not but all people say that i have a beautiful smile

[@aminamoha23]

I dont have a perfect teeth but i want to be a dentist is that wrong

[@daisyb9543]

I love how the dental students have such great teeth and are always smiling 😂💞

[@LauraSmiles]

hahaha we do smile a lot!

[@Ahn-mu3db]

They smile bc they know they have such pretty teeth lmao 😭 wish I could relate. Getting braces again this month :')

[@flaviairis1757]

you look very smiley and happy and excited about life. you made me feel better :)

[@LauraSmiles]

Haha thanks! I like to be a positive person :)

[@yanzhang9273]

I'm so glad I found your channel! I'm currently trying to figure what I'm trying to do in school.

[@LauraSmiles]

Yay, glad you found it too! It's hard to figure out what career to pursue so it's good that you're looking into different fields :)

[@yvetteweir1625]

What a great environment you have at your school, I love getting a bird's eye peep into your school and seeing the acceptance of your recording and journaling your life there!

[@QDCrafts]

Wow the doctors and instructors are so cool to let you vlog during class! They seem so positive and encouraging

[@jorainsintjago6861]

I love this ,im 15 and want to become a dentist and this seems awesoeme ,i will work hard to get here .love the vlogs !!!!!!

[@lebronjames7780]

_ k y’all have fun while you guys are in high school, because after that, grades are the most important thing besides family.

[@Sarahh_]

I love your vlogssss you're the cutest thing ever!!! I recently started dental assisting as I study for my DAT and felt I was terrible assisting the first time, came here for motivation , and now I'm less anxious for what's to come. it takes time to master manual dexterity skills If they aren't there from the start. POST MORE I LOOK FORWARD TO THEM

[@kiaragray2609]

Am so glad I found someone to inspire and to motivate me. Cause most people say dental school is very expensive and hard. Thank you so much. I will continue to pursue my goal of becoming a Dentist.

[@luasare6874]

yeye more dental vlogers

[@LauraSmiles]

Lu Asare yeye!!

[@JBRODUCTION]

yoooooooo loving the vlog. huge props to you for doing this while tackling school!

[@TheeVonnieBee]

This is going to be so good to look back on for memories sake! Your wax up looked great!

[@StressFreeCity]

Hey Laura, thank you so much for continuing the trend of uploading your dental school experience for those of us trying to go to Dental School. Once Linh Phan, who was one of the first on KZbin to upload videos of this genre, graduated from Dental School she stopped uploading so I appreciate you taking the time to share your experience with us, it serves as great motivation for many aspiring Dentists out here.

[@LauraSmiles]

Thank you! It's a lot of work but I love sharing my dental school experience in hopes that it'll inspire others to pursue the field as well! :)

[@youngmedicalinfluencers2206]

Love the style of the vlogs. Real life account of dental school. Keep killing the game

[@rfk2298]

I’m still really young, but I’ve always been interested in science and dentistry in general. I loved your video, and while any medicinal career is daunting, this makes me excited! For sure, I’m too young to know any definite career path, but I would love to be dentist! 💕

[@corinalam7880]

Hi Laura! I just started my first year at UW and I just joined the pre-dental club! So excited to be following your journey through dental school, good luck to you! ❤️

[@LauraSmiles]

Hi Corina! NICEEE GO DAWGS!!! Keep studying hard, maybe I'll see you around! :)

[@KrisRD1306]

[@golfertex]

I’m glad you had fun. 40 years ago, my D1 was just plain difficult. It was trial by ordeal. I survived for 3 years, until I got ulcerative colitis and had to quit. GPA 2.05. I changed majors, earned an MBA @ UT Austin. GPA 3.42. Vindication I was not a “D” student after all. Good luck in your dental career. I hear it’s all about veneers.

[@UriValdez]

Love the friendly and team oriented atmosphere

[@Ahn-mu3db]

You are so cute! :') especially with the glasses they really suit you! You have such a happy and bright smile 😄Hope everything's going well for u!

[@pkdfw]

All of your videos look so good and are so well put together! What camera/editing software do you use?? I'm currently working on getting my Dental Vlog started up 😀

[@Sophie-um4vz]

That's so interesting! I study dentistry in Germany and it's amazing to see the similarities and differences. Currently I'm in the second semester and suffering. 😂 What other classes do you have? Do learn the anatomy of the whole body, too? (We have a dissection class, amazing but so so much to learn) I will dive into your other videos now and probably find all the answers. 😁 But thanks so much for sharing! Everybody seems incredibly nice around you 😊

[@carolined3663]

I’m a junior in high school and looking to become an orthodontist. I’m extremely nervous and curious about how hard it would be in the end. I appreciate your videos so I can get a feel for what it would be like!

[@CatherineVidal]

I am also a dental student, last year... It’s cool to learn how it its in the states, since I am studying abroad & here it’s different here, we have a different numerology for the teeth.

[@louisparcell]

I'm hell keen to see more videos! :) :)

[@LauraSmiles]

PARSL3Y Thanks man! Just checked out your channel - nice vlogs!!

[@mambomob1137]

I remember watching your videos & daydream about dental school hardcore. Now I’m starting in Aug😭🙏🏿

You are the best dental student ever 💛

[@virginiaperello2958]

Made my day! Success on everything :)

[@LauraSmiles]

Nopee I don't force anything - I'm actually a really happy person in general LOL

[@reemibrahim2396]

Keep going!!!

[@Trantenium]

For anyone who is considering going to Dental school. I strongly advise you to work in the dental field for a couple of years during your undergrad... like I did... Being a Dentist might (will) not be what you expect it to be... there is a reason why they have the highest suicide rates.

[@sajayyass6374]

Thank you for this I'm planing in becoming an orthodontist.

[@madalladampandia2347]

THANKYOU😍
