Tips for Dental Hygiene Students to Successfully Balance School and Life
So we picked up an extra hour last week. Nice. While driving to work recently I was thinking how lovely it would be if there was always an extra hour that we could pull into our day when needed. Wouldna��t that help with getting our “To Do” list finished?! Students would have an extra hour of study time, moms would have more time for errands (or maybe even a nap!), and commuters could get back

Ideology, personal experience, competency, and competition all factor into how we relate to other professionals in the workplace, and when we get along with the people we work with, it can

Take Action: Overcome Over-Analyzing in Your Dental Career
Do you think we over-complicate things once in a while? I was thinking about that this weekend, that the details often cloud how simple the actual issue or decision really is.
