It’s a shame that we usually only really learn our craft from our failures. The fact is, the practice of dentistry is kinda like walking through a minefield. This lecture is a bit like a metal detector…
The longer you work in this profession, the more you learn to see and avoid the Red Flags. If you’re lucky, you have mentors that drill these things into your head long enough that you can recite them in your sleep. But until my residency, I didn’t have that. It’s a lot of fun to pay it forward though.
