@drwattsookmay 1️⃣ come romanticise my 10-7 work life with me? 🥹 here’s how dentist life has been recently 2️⃣ some days are mostly ortho while other days are mostly general dentistry 🦷 ooh how I love staring out the windows 3️⃣ sometimes my friends get shocked when they see my huge bag. I can fit groceries inside too 🤣 4️⃣ using a bonded fixed retainer jig with this design! Have always been using other types of jigs but I feel this design holds the wire most securely (wire can’t drop out or spin inside the jig). Fixed retainer 3-3 cemented then the wire between the 3&4 sectioned and jig removed. 5️⃣ orthodontics can be so exciting 🥹🥹 6️⃣ I always thought red would be the braces color for cny, guess not 🧧 7️⃣ lunch is the best time for any kind of videos because the compressors are off 8️⃣ I always get an acai craving when I walk past @swirllovers@singapore 9️⃣ been collating all the best food recs around the clinics I work at because sometimes patients ask for food recommendations 😛 have this bad habit of sitting on video footage for months (like my marathon footage) cos I get so distracted doing other things #work #life #dentist ♬ original sound - singapore dentist
@drwattsookmay Here’s how I spent my off day as a dentist in Singapore after a 40-hour work week. Before I became a dentist, I never realised how much work happens behind the scenes. Sometimes, the work continues outside the clinic — reviewing treatment plans, approving ClinChecks for aligner cases, sorting records… and the list goes on. I’m really grateful for the supportive friends I have within the orthodontic community — friends who uplift me, challenge me, and inspire me to keep learning and improving. I also didn’t know EXO Baekhyun had an album exhibition at plaza sing. Ended the day with a dinner date too (P.S. skip the mains and go straight for the pancakes at Typhoon Café). Off days are for slowing down, recharging, and getting ready for what’s next. #dentist #Singapore #work #rest #fyp ♬ original sound - singapore dentist
