#129- Boy Interrupted - Adam Naughton

Adam Naughton is one of the thousands of dental students whose academic life was rudely interrupted by the COVID pandemic.   In his fourth year of study, he’s yet to get hands-on with impressions, crowns, root canal and other treatments.   But that hasn’t stopped Andrew from putting his name out there and finding his niche on social media early on. His Positive Smile Club Instagram channel pitches five questions on dentistry, mindset and self-development to both new and established names in the profession.   Adam chats about dental school, his Instagram channel and hopes for the future, and reveals his own answers to Positive Smile Club’s five questions.   Enjoy!         In This Episode 02.38 - Being a dental student 07.14 - COVID 10.19 - Backstory 14.29 - Instagram 16.03 - Why dentistry 19.22 - Content creation 25.25 - Mindset and self-development 27.27 - Five questions 38.11 - Soft skills 42.28 - Black box thinking 46.44 - Dental school 55.01 - Positive Smile Club 01.00.57 - Inspiration and specialisation 01.08.46 - Last days and legacy 01.11.45 - Fantasy dinner party 01.14.17 - TikTok About Andrew Naughton Andrew Naughton is a fourth-year dental student at the University of Leeds’ School of Dentistry.  He runs the Positive Smile Club Instagram channel.
