If you are out shopping for a dentist, then chances are that you will not just be looking for a dentist, but specifically for a good dentist. After all, don't we all have vestiges of 'dental phobia' in us? And don't we all have a liking for good doctors, and an aversion for 'not so good' doctors? In the face of all this, as you go shopping for a personal dentist, you may find a checklist of 'features' that go into the making of a good dentist handy.Incontestably, a good dentist is one who is kind. Okay, all dentists, like indeed all doctors, have some degree of professional kindness in them.

Personally, I would not recommend you to choose dentistry as a career. The niche is highly lucrative, and I do not like competition! Jokes apart, allow me to provide some insight into the life of a dentist. Yes, it is true that we are making millions every year, but it is also true that we are putting ourselves at great risk. I will illustrate the same with a suitable example. Most of the readers might be aware of dental implants. These artificial roots will allow a dentist to implant an artificial tooth in the mouth.Bear in mind that the procedure might sound simple to some of the readers - but I will give a brief rundown of the procedures. Once a patient opts for a dental implantation, I will have to study the network of nerves running in the region. One wrong move and the patient will never be able to open his or her mouth. The exact opposite can also happen - sometimes, the patient will never be able to close the mouth. The nerves convey the signals from the brain to various parts of the body. When the nerve cells are damaged, the connectivity between the brain and the region is shunned.It is of no wonder that I charge $5000 for the procedure. Initially, I will have to employ...more
