      jasonx391 don’t over freak out about dental school. It’s a holistic experience. They aren’t going to not accept you because of one bad grade. They look at everything on your application and decide if you have what it takes to push yourself to learn and expand your knowledge of dentistry and apply that to working in the real world.

    Hi Pat, would you say access to care is mostly related to frail elderly people?

    • @pat.the.dentist
      @pat.the.dentist  Pƙed 5 lety +2

      If it affects them it's because they are isolated and probably don't have a means to travel to go see the dentist. Also a lot of them are on a fixed income check and don't have the money to afford care.

    Would dental hygienist degree help get accepted into dental school? If I'm 46 years old by the time I receive my bachelor's degree, what's your humble opinion, am I too old to become a dentist based off of student loan debt at around 300- 500 k? Any advice to stand out among other applicants, like EMT volunteer or a master's degree , extra shadowing hours, molding class, leadership seminars etc etc....Thanks for any advice.....Would you become a dentist at around 49 years of age?

  • @QQTrick1QQ
    @QQTrick1QQ Pƙed 5 lety

    Nothing personal, love your videos but yes I am an antidentite (Seinfeld) lol. I am in process of making a upper set of dentures and was wondering if you could go into any detail on how a $50,000 dollar set of dentures are priced. I hear better materials a little bit of titanium but were talking grams of materials. Implants, denture mounting studs, why it costs $150 to pull a molar out but thousands to drill a hole and screw in a stud? These aren't gold diamond encrusted dentures, just porcelain and/or acrylic with a thin titanium support molded inside.

    • @MrDoctorlove993
      @MrDoctorlove993 Pƙed 5 lety

      QQTrick1QQ most dentures are meant to last from 5 to 10 years. If you want to upgrade to better materials, it’s a complexity of specialties. Oral surgeons have more education and they’ve paid for more education so they can specialize on working in your mouth. Therefore, they have higher fees (which implants would be placed, most likely, by a specialist or a general dentist certified in implant placement). Implants are not just an overnight process like making regular dentures could be. Implants sometimes require additional non grafting to be added, and it takes months and months to heal. It takes a lot of doctor’s times, which is very valuable. Not all dentures are $50,000. Usually, the price you’re paying is a mark up because it’s luxury. Insurances sometimes won’t pay for things like that because a $1,500 set of dentures will suffice and do the same job as a $50,000 set of dentures. Sometimes dentists have to charge a lot of procedures because the materials themselves are expensive. It’s a very complex web of things that go into determining prices for things like that.

    • @MrDoctorlove993
      @MrDoctorlove993 Pƙed 5 lety +1

      QQTrick1QQ it’s also important to remember, this isn’t just a screw you can go get in your toolbox in the garage. I’ve noticed people seem to really belittle dental procedures because they think they have a basic understanding of what it is. It’s not a simple procedure, it’s not something from your toolbox in the garage, it’s just just removing a tooth, it’s not just a cleaning, it’s not just putting in a screw or stud. If you think about it this way, dentures are supposed to last from 5 to 10 years but some people over use their dentures until their bone shrinks and they dentures no longer fits, but they are unaware. Fixed dentures may not need to be replaced as often. Plus, they are a luxury in the sense that they are sometimes more asthetically pleasing and they feel more natural and you take care of them like real teeth.
