If you really love something, figure out what you're good at in it too. Go all in on those two things until you can combine them into one and the world, you're going to be smooth sailing and it won't be work. It's going to be like a hobby." "You applied to 10, then 6, and got waitlisted at 6. I would probably increase the applications to at least 15 dental schools now. You're applying for the 3rd time. Think about these things." "Only focus on what you can control. You can't control anything outside of that." "Don't worry about other people's stats... I didn't get straight A's. I got A's and B's. That was a rule of mine, no C's. And I know people with C's that got into oral surgery. Just work hard, work as hard as you can, be a good person, be a teammate, and you're gonna be fine." "You could have all the degrees in the world... but where you work and who you work for, and the community that you work in — that's all gunna determine and literally dictate whether you can even do all the things you want to do... That's something I've been thinking about for the last couple of years." "Ice 30 minutes on, 30 minutes off, head elevated, for 2 days. No straws, no smoking. Be careful you don't get a dry socket." "Mentorship is going to be your #1 go-to thing and just be a sponge. Absorb as much information anywhere that you can as possible." "Go into the oral surgery clinic and ask if you could assist with anything... after a while, they're going to throw you a bone... I taught dental students how to take teeth out almost every day." Questions: 00:45 – "Any tips on administering local anesthetic? LOL, I have Stab Lab Thursday." 05:33 – "If I haven't got my wisdom teeth out, should I get them out?" 07:10 – "My sister has an infected wisdom tooth hole. What's the worst that can happen?" 08:40 – "I'm an RDA going into RDH school. Any advice?" 12:45 – "I'm applying to dental school for the 3rd time this cycle, any tips?" 16:56 – "How much are you making now or expect to make?" 28:25 – "I had a really strong fall semester... and now I got a 1.8 GPA spring. Am I cooked?" 35:45 – "I'm almost done with medical school and I want to do my DMD after, for OMFS. Is it worth it?" 45:09 – "I'm an international dentist from UK who wants to become one in the USA but I'm terrified of the cost."

    Dr. Calvin Chen, Chairlink Founder - Dose of Dental Podcast #232 x Dr. Gallagher's Podcast

    Top 5 Topics: - Dentistry's Hidden Ownership Stakes - DSO vs Private Practice – The Real Story - Mentorship That Actually Works (ChairLink) - Partnership & Contract Red Flags Every Dentist Must Know - Saturated Markets & The Future of Dentistry Quotes & Wisdom: “We want to create a system where you can find the people who have lived through what you're looking for... These high stakes decisions are often best supported by experience and these things you can't really do your own research on.” — Calvin Chairlink “The pathway to becoming an owner has changed... It's been harder to find practices. The number of dental students being pumped out... the competition is going to remain consistent or potentially worse. That’s why mentoring is all the more important.” — Brendan “Nothing in the business of dentistry is really taught in dental school.” — Calvin Chairlink “You get a lot of repetitions the first year or two out [in a DSO], which could be beneficial... But people need to recognize the restrictive covenant.” — Brendan “It’s harder to get out of a partnership than it is to get out of an associateship job... Have to really make sure you know who you're signing on with... knowing how they're going to support you before you sign yourself in.” — Calvin Chairlink “The site itself is completely free to use... A lot of our mentors really are doing this out of generosity. Even though the site appears to be monetized, a lot of it is mission-based right now.” — Calvin Chairlink “Mentorship is such a vague word right now... We're just trying to create structure around it so that way it's a lot more efficient... The mentor doesn't feel like they're responsible for everything.” — Calvin Chairlink “We're able to connect with a lot of different dentists who are in saturated competitive markets and can share the little tips and tricks they've been through.” — Calvin Chairlink Questions: 02:42 - Did you 01:19 - "So it's called ChairLink - and it's a mentoring platform?" 02:30 - "And the pathway to getting to ownership because that's becoming, they don't teach you how to become an owner in dental school." 07:27 - "Was there a partnership track at the first office?" 13:10 - "Have you noticed a significant, like an obvious difference between California and North Carolina?" 13:44 - "Is that what you did?" (referring to acquiring a practice or startup in an unsaturated area) 16:35 - "How did you buy into this practice? Is it sweat equity? Did you replace someone?" 18:33 - "Did you run this by an attorney, an employment attorney about the contracts?" 20:50 - "What's the next steps with ChairLink? How do people sign up?... How do people looking for mentors sign up and get started?"
