It&#39;s called remodeling.&quot;</p><p><br></p><p>[03:05] – &quot;A lot of people go into healthcare thinking it&#39;s going to be like Scrubs or Grey&#39;s Anatomy. In a way it is, the drama of it, but the actual work is not like these shows. It&#39;s real work.&quot;</p><p><br></p><p>[04:32] – &quot;The rule was something like, 2 to 3 patients per ICU nurse. Nurses in the ICU were taking care of 6 to 8 patients, more than double the limit. It&#39;s just not fair for nurses.&quot;</p><p><br></p><p>[05:54] – &quot;I was a dental assistant too - I was a surgical assistant before I went to dental school. You can do it, man. Go for it.&quot;</p><p><br></p><p>Top Questions:</p><p>[00:32] – &quot;Do OMFS work in hospitals too?&quot;</p><p>[01:04] – &quot;Did you do research at Stony Brook?&quot;</p><p>[02:11] – &quot;I got a bone graft 3 years ago, but never got my implant. Could I still do it, or is it too late?&quot;</p><p>[06:24] – &quot;How is the career path as a 4-year OMFS graduate if you want to do reconstructive work?&quot;</p><p>[07:35] – &quot;I had a wisdom tooth extraction by an OMFS. It&#39;s been a week post-op and I&#39;m numb in my lips and chin. What should I do?&quot;</p><p>[14:37] – &quot;Are you all coworkers driving home, or what&#39;s going on?&quot;</p><p><br></
