Show Notes


In this episode, Dr. Haley Schultz reacts to the most common (and hilarious!) assumptions, stereotypes, and expectations people have about dentists. From “Do dentists secretly judge your teeth?” to “Do all dentists have perfect smiles and make six figures?”, Haley gives her honest take—what’s fact, what’s fiction, and what’s somewhere in between. She also breaks down myths about dental school, the dental profession, and what it’s really like behind the scenes of a dental office. Whether you're a pre-dental student, a practicing dentist, or someone who’s just curious about what dentists are really thinking—you’ll love this mix of humor, truth, and industry insight.
