Answer:

Hmm, what an interesting question!

If you are asking because you have difficulty deciding which vocation to enter; then I’d suggest NOT doing either, at least, not till you’ve had some life experience and seen more of the what the world can offer.

Whilst both options are in healthcare, there is a HUGE difference between the two - both in the area of focus, and the scope within the field itself. Dentistry can take you from the simple cleans and checks, all the way to quite major surgery of the jaws and lower face - and by major, think, skin peeled off the face and gloves covered in blood major.

Optometry is, well, a bit limited but clean; and there is a lot of satisfaction, especially in Third World countries in identifying, treating and managing eyesight issues in children. You’ll work with other health professionals - i.e. Nurses and doctors - in the delivery of care.

As a dentist, this was one of my days in the past week:

I saw a patient for a 4 hour appointment, she needed deep sedation, which I administered myself - using two types of drugs. The patient was fully monitored (ECG, BP, O2 and CO2), and I’m trained to administer, monitor and manage heavily sedated patients. She was effectively barely conscious throughout. She needed 2 CAD/CAM crowns which I prepared, scanned, and fabricated using a robotic mill. She also needed laser gum surgery to expose a problem tooth, and 2 restorations.

I then saw a patient in the afternoon who was having severe jaw aches; we took a CT scan (I have a machine at my offices), and examined a 3D image of her jaws. I prescribed some medication for her and looked to review her in 2 weeks.

I saw a patient for the removal of their wisdom teeth, also under IV sedation; it was a difficult removal as the roots of the teeth were very close to an important nerve and blood vessel. There was a complication, as a smaller blood vessel was severed during the operation, and the patients mouth filled up with blood, I had to find the vessel, compress it and then laser it shut.

My last patient came in for 4 fillings on their back teeth, this took about 90 minutes.

I suspect an optometrists day would be - eye check, eye check, eye check, administered eye drops, diagnosed problem with child's eyes and prescribed treatment, organized eyeglasses for a number of patients, eye check, eye check, reviewed patients on managed care, etc. Perhaps a practicing optometrist could give us more insight here?

What two things are necessary to prove an exposure occurred

anygoal [31]

When assessing a possible exposure, it is necessary to note both the portal of entry and the mode of transmission. In simple terms, exposure to communicable disease requires two components. First component is a method of transmission wherein a pathogen enters the body. For example, a needle stick incident, the needle is the method of travel. The infected material travels from the host patient to the employee by way of the needle. The second component is the portal of entry. It is the path through which the infected material gains entry into the body. Referring to our example earlier, in the needle stick incident, the place where the needle punctures the skin is the portal of entry for the disease.

what part of your hand becomes most damaged in the long term when you box with no gloves or hand wraps?

aliina [53]

A ‘boxers fracture’ is the break of either the fourth or fifth metacarpal, that’s located just below the knuckle. This injury most commonly occurs when punching a firm object, such as your opponent’s skull, with a closed first.

Probably the main reason as to why this injury happens in the ring is a lack of technique. Maintaining the correct punching technique during your bout as much as possible is key to your long-term hand health. In addition to this, another common injury in boxing is Carpal Bossing. Carpal Bossing is when a lump forms on the back of the hand at the junction of the long finger bones and the small wrist bones. This lump comes as a result of the thinning of the articular cartilage lining, which is usually caused by a knock to the back of your wrist.

Ice can be used in between fights or training sessions and can be applied to the hands to help settle inflammation caused by heavy impact, reducing the repeated damage to the tissues.
