originbm: Lol... And you even forgot that a dentist who specializes in oral and Maxillofacial surgery will also access an eye patient especially in the case of trauma and places where there's no Ophthalmologist.... You can browse and check it.... Dental curriculum also included the eye surgery which is Ophthalmology.... They are not patching with doctors... So many medical field aligned with Dentistry which is what made both medicine and Dentistry one family...... Some specialties of medicine that aligned with medicine are neurology and neurosurgery, oncology, otorhinolaryngology, ophthalmology, Anasthesia, and plastic surgery..... Dentistry have private suite for accident and emergency, it doesn't end in scale and polishing or extraction.....one dental Implantology which was done in our teaching Hospital cost 350k...... Talk less of benign and malignant tumors of the head and neck.... Most a times, dentists are the first people to notice and probably manage eye problems before referring to an Ophthalmologist and not to an optometrist..... A times people even get treated by a dentist without knowing it, just like a child that recently had his mandible dislocated upon falling from a story building.... Tomorrow he will Still not believe it was a dentist that treated him.... The Public have a shallow knowledge of Dentistry but people in medical school where Dentistry is run always understand whatsapp.... Thank you oga I pray your senses will 4 Likes |

Pes13: It varies for different schools.... Like in UI, you start all the dental courses/professional exams in 500 level after, you must have written final mbbs (medicine and Surgery), but in most other schools like Uniben and my school UNN, Dental students write most MBBS and BDS courses simultaneously..... Like, aside from the normal physical and biological Sciences exams in first year which is taken as the first professional exam for both medicine and Dentistry, we write the 2nd BDS professional exams in Oral Biology (Oral anat, physio, and bch) in 2nd semester 2nd year, before writing the 2nd MBBS professional exams in General Anatomy, physio and biochemistry..... U will try I get you a run-down of the academic regulations 1 Like |

Godspell: Sorry, but I don't know where you got this thing from.... Provided you are licensed to practice by the regulatory body... You are equal to another..... Medicine and Dentistry is beyond varsity control... It is Nationally based..... The blacklisting of varsities for medical training have stopped since.... There's qualifying exam one have to write, if you want to go abroad.... Graduates of allAccredited medical schools in Nigeria are free to do so.....if you are talking about the degree of consideration by the foreign medical boards and the slight changes in curriculum, I will give you some credits..... But saying one medical school supersedes the other is a no no..... Doctor na Doctor, provided he has a genuine license 3 Likes 3 Shares |

They are our lights... They are our Heroes... They crossed the hurdles and the stumbling blocks... The hazy and thorny bridges of the college of Medicine... faculty of Dentistry they called it... It sounded easier and lighter until they got in to behold the Dragon... Doggedly, they tactically smashed their fears and anxieties....their lights superseded... Shining brighter than a diamond.... They trampled upon the multiple serpents of the Dragon.. The 2nd BDS part A Oral Biology (Oral Anatomy, oral physio and Oral biochemistry) with the 2nd Mbbs General Anatomy, physiology, Biochemistry.... Chai ! Metabolism..... they smashed the scorpions.... The 3rd Mbbs Pathology (chemical pathology and Histopathology, Hematology, medical microbiology and immunology, morbid Anatomy) and pharmacology....including the burning horns.. 3rd Bds in Dental prosthesis, Basic technique in Dental Anasthesia, operative techniques and science of Dental materials.... Like Eagles, their wings enveloped the final mbbs in General Medicine and General Surgery, including and the subspecialties of both medicine and surgery..... And General Anasthesia... This was when they qualified to be doctors.... It still didn't end there....Just like David, they catapulted the Goliath in final Bds....

[/color][color=#990000] The motto of University of Nigeria is "To Restore The Dignity Of Man".... And one of the academics that reflected and personified that maxim was Dr Uche Mgbeokwere (BDS Nig, FWACS)) ... An Oral and maxillo Facial Surgeon. As many scholars talked about him being a colossus in learning and described him as a thorough-bred and highly cultivated individual in manners and character, I wished I met him as well.... As History had it, he was The class rep of the first set of dental students University of Nigeria,(1989set)... He is one of the reasons Dental education stands in the South eastern region of Nig..., Today, we are studying dentistry in UNEC... As a student, he led his classmates to disrupt an ongoing Senate meeting in Nsukka, just to make sure dentistry got accredited... I can't help than to imagine such boldness, and such rare courage they picked! I also imagined their number, and the contorted faces of the then VC and of the University Senate... As a Dr, he was also among the very few that fought for the rebirth of the present dentistry we are all enjoying now... Until his death, he was a Senior Lecturer in the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, and a Consultant Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeon, University of Nigeria, Teaching Hospital, (UNTH), Enugu. He has held many responsibilities in the Department, Faculty, and College levels which include : 1.Member, Directorate of Research and Publicity, College of Medicine, University of Nigeria, Enugu Campus. Co-ordinator, Clinical Dental Services, University of Nigeria Teaching Hospital, Enugu, Nigeria. August 30th, 2010 –October, 2011.

He also attended many workshops both nationally and internationally, and many research papers published and others currently in the print... The late Dr Uche presents the picture of the conscious, fully-aware Surgeon and Academic working consciously, assiduously on a cause to achieve maximum effect. like air and Water which were among the essential things that forms part of our existence, his teachings dwelt.... His visions for Dentistry in UNN was neither ensnared, nor quaint. The vision encapsulated his consciousness, his self belief and benign hope. He has been very ive to the growth of UNDESA... Indeed a great Hero is gone... As the: Nigerian Dental Association Nigerian Medical Association Nigerian Association of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons International Association of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons International Congress of Oral Implantologists And the varsity community prepares to pay him the last respect on the 25th of this month, Which will be kicked off by an Academic procession by the lecturers and most especially the Fellows (holders of Fellowship of West African College of Surgeons (FWACS)...(Burial arrangement will be released proper) May the Gentle Soul of Dr Uche Mgbeokwere and All the faithful Departed Rest in the bosom of the lord...Amen CC: Madu Jonathan President, (UNDESA) Victoria Director of Welfare Okereke Wisdom Public Relations Officer 1 Like |

The Orgy Option.... There are these things that appeal to me. Things like standing at My balcony under the glare of hot afternoons and watching high above the horizon, the acres of coloured aluminum metal roofs caught in-between deciduous trees, and walls wreathed in creeping bougainvillea at the rise and fall of hope in this city full of faded beauty. When I will watch the beauty of Enugu, the Lights that are so bright that they seem to blot out the stars at Night... feelings that leave me fascinated or get me thrown into a state of Melancholy, drenched in detailed thoughts of certain depressing restraints.... A certain constraint that existed those days when I was confined within the walls of my room and to my family alone, guarded and guided by principles, many principles, so much that certain questions were silenced by fear, and love, and routine and Religion. This things influenced me deeply... It was in this state that I reminisced about Olanna, who later became one of my roommate’s Exes. Did she not know that Ndu has a certain kind of taste, a soft spot for ladies with normal body but large boobs and big rounded Ass? " A big rounded ass? What on earth do you need that for?" I had asked surprisingly.... And he had gone on his normal lecture series, telling me how pleasurable it is. "There’s no big difference between you and a queer person, all of them are through same route" I chipped in though unwittingly... "Taa.. There is ooo, the breast nko? It’s just called trying things differently," He had said with haughtiness and piled irritation written all over. "That was so thoughtful of you, Pervert!” I said sarcastically, with the kind of scorched mockery that blurs damage. Ndu had a glowing ego. He propounded his own theory for girls; the girls who kept on coming. The theory of investment and profit. So when Olanna came, I conceived in my heart that it won't be long and she would be become overdue. But things went differently, She never had large boobs and mighty ass, but she is beautiful ......she stayed long, and then even longer.... I respected her because she shaped him. I found myself and everyone that associates with us relating with her. Feisty and manipulating was what I could define of her, I feel the strength and feelings encapsulated in her words. She had ed me at the Balcony, the first evening she visited. She had raised a conversation on Orgy and Single porn, and how she preferred the latter to the former because watching porn, where so many people are assembled in a place, all pants down with a lot of to and fro movement, doesn’t give her the room for concentration. I listened with rapt attention, and smiled at intervals, saying almost nothing... She later got to know in the middle of the discussion that I just learned about Orgy; and she had thought my story of her was of an irresponsible, vaguely foreign teen-ager, with the haughty silkness of the weave that fell to her shoulders in loose curls, who could get her clothes off before the snap of two fingers... but that wasn’t my thought. I was only marveled by the neutrality and simplified certainties, and her confidence, with which she talked about things like this.... It sounded so normal and common, so natural, when it was coming from her. It was from this balcony that I heard empty promises which he showered upon her; it was from there that I heard her moans of pleasure and ecstasy, the moans that led me imagining her stylishly putting off her clothes and bending over and been stroked differently from the back..... When she started visiting often was when I knew that her time was up. l wanted to tell her that she was loving him too much, and that she should allow him to yearn, and grow in great need of her, but I kept quiet.... It was not my relationship after all. Later, Olanna, Okafor and I would go to Bethel’s Inn to have lunch, and I would watch the empty seats keenly, the seats that were formerly occupied by all of us but now empty because something happened. A Break up happened. Olanna would ask me the kind of people that I will love to do, the kind of extension that translates sex and love to endowment, and I would her lectures of Orgy.... I wanted to tell her that I don't do ‘people’ but would like to concentrate on a person, a person that I love individually because of the person’s value and the impacts; I wanted to tell her that I love for the intrinsic value and removing anything that is not intrinsic in the person I do.... I wanted to tell her that, to me, love and sex are different but complementary and that it wasn't divided in quanta for a big rounded assed or a flat and larger boobed people, But I just mumbled some words which I couldn't . It was in the days like this that I will receive her calls, a week after they had broken up. while enjoying from the balcony, the tranquility from the insights in the air.. She had called to ask me whether he had started seeing someone, and I’d answered "I don't know". But I know... I knew that Ndu started making advances to Ihuoma after having her 4th series of sex. Here I stood, at my balcony, premeditating on how to tell her that Ihuoma, her best friend, with big ass and large boobs is currently lying on my roommate’s bed . Wisdom

Don't underestimate those quez, these same quez sent most people out of the college bc they assumed It to be sounding more like an end of course assessment, Here In my school, they expect you t0 write all that you know.... I mean all, including certain basic Anatomical physi0 like in the 1st quez, u needed not to say just the renal aspect of the answer, the GIT hormonal remediation is required t00.... like the role of secretin and CCk, and partially m0tilin...giving detailed answers 0n how each 0f the hormones will affect the restoration of these Parameters as listed above... S0 its not all about saying what u know in the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone-ADH system that will fetch you all the marks... U say all u know without deviating from the context of the question |

Mandeyy......keep educating him....just educate him wella... Also tell him that dental surgeons study medicine, surgery (including anastesiology, opthalmolgy, cadiothoracic, pediatric surgery, etc), pharmacology and therapeutics, pathology, basic Med sci, and also have to study restorative dentistry,peadiatrics, preventive and community dentistry, and oral and maxillofacial surgery (including its diagnoses, radiology, medicine and its pathology)......... Tell him that all this are studied simultaneously in 6yrs, such that a dental surgeon is not just a doctor but a special type of doctor.....a dentist!! Or dental surgeon as it is fondly called.... Tell him that a medical doctor studies medicine and surgery, but a dental surgeon studies medicine, surgery and dentistry at same time..... Tell him that dentistry is not just teeth but the specialty that deals with the medicine, pathology, diagnoses, radiology and surgery of the oral cavity, that maxillo and facial region, the head and some part of the neck..... Tell him that apart from the dental clinic and an oral maxillofacial units, that in every plastic surgery unit of any standard hospital like uch for instance, that we have a dentist who specialized in oral maxillo facial surgery being among the frontiers of plastic and aesthetic team..... Tell him that some specialties in dentistry is part of emedicine( emmergency med) ask him how many emmergencies hv been encountered in optometry... Tell him that there's a field called forensic dentistry for criminal cases and identification during mass accident and fire outbreak like bombing and plane crash....it was one of the measures taken by luth in identification of corpses after dana plane crash....... Tell him that dentistry re not in the clinic to count teeth... Just nine dental schools in nigeria, and u say there's no prospect for a country with billions of pple....ah! Oga think nah..... They re special type of doctors......a doctor and a surgeon at same time All dentists are doctors but not all doctors are dentists...... 14 Likes |

Today we sincerely sympathize with them.... Indeed there are medical schools in west Africa, but in the midst of all is one with 7 black horns and 10 eyes, that has fire and acid coming out from his mouth.... To me, I will say its the Toughest place to study medicine or Dentistry due to her overly strict and tight rules..... Honestly, we were in rude/deep shock and great consternation when our attention was drawn to the outcome of the 2nd MBBS professional exam written by the Faculty of Medicine and Surgery and the faculty of Dentistry/Dental Surgery both in the College of Medicine University of Nig... . It was pathetic....it wasn't funny at all.... My heart bleeds for most of them and putting myself in their shoes, I am even scared of my ownself... Such a result cannot be pasted even in HELL....because the devil will reject it, But here it is in the land of the living... To the aspirants that want to choose the 2 courses above....Pray for God's direction, one thing is coming in, Another is ing out....it is not a case of I must be a doctor, it is not easy at all....... You should know how painful it is when one fails Jamb....let alone failing MBBS and repeating or be Withdrawn from the course you laboured so much for many years... I heard someone had wanted to commit suicide out of frustration if not that the security have to get hold of him.... . Look at the statistics : in medicine : 107 out of 273 ed that's 39.79% ed. 33 will resit (8 resit bch, 4resit anat, 21 resit physio).... In dentistry :10 out of 47 ed that's 21.1% ed 2 will resit (1 resit physio, 1resit bch) Others who didn't fall within the category above will either Repeat or be Withdrawn depending in the degree of their failure.... And note: about 20 people was disqualified from writing this exam because they were unable to attend 75% attendance to one of the courses for 2nd mb and we also heard that 51 in 400l was equally disqualified from writing 3rd MB.... that these people are not dumb...most of them are Genius but MB have a way of rubbishing great intellectuals . Prayer Chain Please, in the next 30 mins, let's take out time to pray for the 2nd MB medical/Dental students who failed their MBBS exams. The hearts of many are failing. Please find a secluded place and say intense words of prayer for them within the next 30 minutes. Let's salvage the souls of many from the enemy. We don't want to hear of suicides or madness. Let's redeem their souls in prayers wherever they are. on the mount Zion, there is always a hope.. God will see them through in the quest to the zenith of medical practice. Pray for Gods grace, they need it! . Wisdom 4 Likes |

nelszx:You comment in a harmful/shallow minded way..... U indirectly belittled bds by saying an Oral pathologist (Bds) is far diff and wasn't recognized seeming like they study diff pathology outside the human body, as if they don't study medicine and surgery as well in the course of bds degree..... and u even attached optometrist to back ur claims......somebody tried to enlighten u and the next thing u did was to meander away from the lights he tried to show u..... This is kinda myopic as u said mlscn accredits labs opened by pathologist and at same time u said they are not liable, so how can u get accreditation to practice from a body that didn't give u license or accredit your scope of studies in school ![]() Dr Lagusta tried to enlighten you, but u never tried to listen As u kept on pressing forward to ur own stand U just have to calm Down and learn......thanks for your time as I am also tired of the blind argument 2 Likes |

nelszx: Mr ......... First, u should know that both mbbs/bds are regulated by mdcn.....hence any pathogist be it chemical pathologist or oral/maxillofacial pathologist is liable to mdcn.... 2ndly..... Mlscn might be regulating med lab sci graduates to carry out lab work, but mdcn still license/regulates/supervise/accredit that of her whether they want to run a hospital which a pathological or clinical lab work will be incoporated in it.... They don't need any MLSCN to regulate clinical lab work for pathologists....it is a slap on Mdcn.... U should know that from time and immemorial, Medical lab started from doctors, the people u recognized as med lab scientists today just came up as helpers becuse they help the pathologists in carrying out lab work which the pathologists interprete and even treat bc of the training they underwent in school.... And it will be nice if you add courtesy in your life as that's one of the key to achieving great feat... |

emperor272:Any of them is Cool...... Unilag got higher quota of 40 in dentistry against ui that graduates 30......u still have to check ur chances of catchments b/w the 2, though ui might hv catchments with almost all the states of the federation......unilag is still good in its own way, just read and score high in jamb as dentistry/dental surgery don't need people to come and feel space, they it the best few among the number that applied |

Ksudr:It might not have adverse effect on u immediately, but upon graduation.....every allocation based on state and Federal level in the medical/Health ministries will have to be from that state u supplied right from the time of ission.... If u want to contest for anything after school, ur certificate won't be saying u are from Lagos, and u want to contest for Governorship in Enugu.... . Note: Everything about your Educational background will be stating u came from the state u applied for as ur state of Origin upon ission into the varsity . NYSC call up letter will show that ur state u supplied, hence u have to keep up with ur game and lies to avoid contradiction..... I don't think ur License/certificate will show your state, but in the Council, ur State of Origin will be ed during indexing...... Provided u Can keep up with the game and also deny yourself this top position where ur certificate might be scrutinized properly, then there's no problem.... this is Nigeria though....pple still change their states.... But just know that u just hv to keep balling in the game of providing the state/LGA of that state whenever such issues comes up 4 Likes |

nelszx:Oboi! U just need to humble yourself and learn from people.... U claim to know it all whereas u just don't get it right..... MBBS/BDS Consultants in Chemical pathology or Oral and Maxillofacial Pathology respectively are not liable to MLSCN whatsoever........mlscn Hv their own level wheree they operate from but lab medicine for doctors is still under mdcn Thank u |
