The Very Dental Podcast Network Very Clinical: Confessions of a Dental School Instructor with Dr. Meylinda Meredith
The guys are joined by Dr. Meylinda Meredith who is a neighbor and friend of Zach! Meredith was in private practice for awhile but went back to teach full time at UMKC School of Dentistry! This wide ranging conversation featured a lot of topics, including:
- transitioning from private practice back to an academic setting
- dental schools can be political and have their own drama
- generational differences of dental students then and now
- "Just in Case" vs. "Just in Time" learning
- Communication styles for today's dental students
- Youtube as an instructor
- The fulfilling benefits of working at the dental school...one of them is working with the students
- Are they still teaching amalgam?
- What kind of digital stuff are they doing in the dental school?
- What does she miss about private practice?
