We did work for Georgetown U Dental School for a couple of years before they closed. Without a doubt, some of the worst preps/impressions/bites were sent in by the professors. Reminds me of the old adage - "Those that can do; those that can't teach."
FWIW, I am a part-time faculty at a grad program in a Texas Dental school and I do not speak
for the school or the program.
The only reason I am still going there against all odds is because of the program director
and his team of dedicated warriors soldiering on to help maintain the educational competencies
of the prosthodontists we graduate. I have heard of bad outcomes in dental schools but being
a teaching institution, that is part of the package. And alot of times, the faculty would have to
stand in to take the bullet for the students who are still learning.
As in everything in life, there will always be the good and 'sub-optimal' apples. Trust me, I know
there are so many who stay for the mission longer than their health will allow . . . for the sake of the team.
