What we covered

Prof Dato' Dr Mohamed Ibrahim, Dean of Dentistry at MAHSA University, shared what a career in dentistry really looks like today.

It's about saving teeth, with tech like CAD/CAM, implants and 3D printing.
It's a 5-year, demanding degree with high fees and physical strain.
Careers go beyond the clinic: specialist, academic, researcher, entrepreneur, military.

His advice: shadow a dentist, talk to dental students and visit dental schools before you commit.
