I use venus razor.

I don't like it. at all. no, let me be specific..I hate doing crown preps, I hate doing fillings..the only thing I like is periodontology but I can't spend 3 more years in school to specialize and rack up an extra $250,000 in debt.

i'm desi and "we" meaning my family we all tend to live together. Parents live with their sons. And my hubby is a really nice family oriented guy who would never tell his parents, no you can't live with me and my wife. Islamically i have a right to have my own house, but culturly we're suppose to take care of our parents/elders. So if i say to him that i will absolutely NOT live w/his parents, this WILL affect our marriage. Of course if the tables are turned, and my sis-in-law (bro's wife) tells my parents that they can't live w/her, i will be really pissed too.

I hope you get it now..if not PM..i'll explain in details.

is there a procedure or an area in general dentistry that you do like which you could focus on in your practice? I've seen practices in New York that focus mostly on cosmetic stuff like whitening treatments and stuff like that

i really dont know anything about dentistry but there must be something in it for you

iA it all works out

crown preps

restor should be that bad?

once you graduate you may like to ask your colleagues to direct perio cases to you..and perhaps you can refer your patients for surgeries etc...

there's a light at the end of the tunnel.

if they're aiming for esthetics, they'd be doing highly esthetic fillings and crowns.

I really just feel trapped.

I agree with DR, try using a mens razor. I use the fusion which has five blades.

would you stay with someone who you cared deeply for... who was completely devoted to you and would do anything to make you happy, but who had painfully low self-esteem and was a little unstable when it came to his iman?

what if he had a questionable track record in the past and (thus) a lot of baggage?

i generally dont do well with people who have low self esteem..in a personal relationship i mean..as in friend, etc. i cant always be the one to say comforting things..i cant baby someone...especially not a guy..and it doesnt make me insensitive..i think people have low self esteem as a result of some bigtime valid issues..but i just dont want to be the one to have to deal with that..

sally · #**7453** (**permalink**) 03-13-2008, 08:37 PM

it's kind of disappointing when you expect somebody to understand something and they don't...but i guess not all things can be realized if they're not spoken about

If he was working on his iman and was no long doing shady stuff, then yes I would. I could help him build up his self esteem inshAllah. If we both loved each other, then I think self-esteem issues isn't a big thing. I'd be more worried about where his iman is and if he's changed his ways for the better.
