I think dentistry is one of the most challenging and feared professions for the patients. It’s not the most comfortable place for them, so if I can make a difference and make it more comfortable, almost enjoyable, change their life in the process, give them a little bit more confidence, that really truly makes me happy. I was in the field of psychology, but I managed dental offices in my undergraduate studies.
I changed my mind halfway through my studies because I truly enjoyed the interaction with the patients. I worked for a great doctor who was very personable, single female practice, and she had very many local neighborhood patients that she watched them grow older, their kids grow up, families expand, and it was a multi-generational practice which was very, very nice. For me, the most rewarding aspect of dentistry is taking a patient that comes in that is nervous, apprehensive, that had bad experience with dentists, and truly giving them an experience that can change their perspective and change their life, eliminate their fear, because in 2025, there’s no reason for patients to be for the cup dentist.
We have excellent armamentarium and materials to help them, relax them, whether it be something as simple as sedation, vibrating goggles, little massagers, aromatherapy, a little bit of TLC truly goes a long way with the people that are afraid or uncomfortable, and most people are uncomfortable because we’re in their space with sometimes intimidating instruments. Any way we can make them more comfortable, we enjoy.
