Written by Cloud Dentistry | Jan 9, 2024 4:02:45 PM

Being a Dental Student is no small feat. It's a unique blend of lectures, clinical hours, and of course, a ton of studying. But, with the right tools and resources at your disposal, your days can be incredibly rewarding and dare I say…fun! 

Check out these crucial online tools for dental career success morning, noon, and night!

Morning

The day usually kicks off early with a coffee run, a literal run, or really anything to give you a good boost of energy before a round of lectures. From head and neck anatomy to periodontics, there's always something new to learn. However, at times it can be a bit overwhelming. That's where the advantages of online resources come in. With tools like Quizlet and DentalCare.com, students can access well-organized, up-to-date information on various dental topics to complement their current courses. 

Afternoon

After a much needed break and lunch, it's time for some hands-on practice in the clinic. The practical aspects of dentistry require precision and patience. But don't worry, if you need a little extra practice after the clinic, the world of online education has got your back. With YouTube channels like Hygiene Edge and websites like My Dental Key, grasping complex procedures has never been faster or easier. 

Night

As the day winds down, it's time for some serious study sessions. Exam preparation can be daunting, but the digital world is there to help. Platforms like Cloud Dentistry, along with StudentRDH, actually host monthly virtual trivia nights! These fun, interactive sessions not only help you test your knowledge but also make learning enjoyable. Plus, they serve as a great stress-buster during those intense study weeks. Whether it’s trivia nights or study sessions with friends, it’s so important to find ways to bring a little fun into your daily routine.

Being a dental student is challenging, but it's also incredibly rewarding. And with the aid of modern online education tools, you're not alone on this journey. Providing resources, a supportive community, and even a bit of fun, these platforms are making dental school experiences smoother and more enjoyable.
