I have volunteered at "Alandi Primary Health Care Center" in a rural area in India and also the" Indiana Mission of Mercy" in Indiana .I had the experience of volunteering at two different places in different situations but the nature of the dental work was the same.

Dentistry is a fascinating profession for its approach to patients, restoring function as well as es-thetic. I believe that Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery is the most important specialty in dentistry and medicine which combines art with science. It is appealing when patients leave the Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery (OMS) clinics not only with good function and esthetic, but also in a better psychological status. And I find the AAOMS’s motto “Saving Faces.. Changing Lives..” very insi...

She has so much missing tooth structure, we had to extract the tooth. It's a real skill to be able to be a dentist, because it's as much of an art as it is a science. I look forward to being in that position and having that doctor patient
To be honest my initial inspiration to take the dental therapy and hygienist course was from my mother, who would say ‘If more people had healthy teeth, more people would smile’.For me this statement was a turning point ,as it lead me to wondering that maybe the lack of clean and healthy teeth , is actually the prime reason to why many of us today do not smile enough , causing less unity between the people in our society. Hence from my research into the dental world, I settled on this course as it gives an opportunity for me to not only learn how to provide an assistance to the dentists trying to spread clean teeth ,but also get a chance to help and encourage younger, elder and those with disabilities to carry out the dental treatments, so
My ambition for studying a degree for dental hygiene propagated during my research about it. I am very much aware of the importance of the hygienist's role in maintaining the patient's health as I have already experienced it during work experience in a dental surgery.

I read scientific journals and enjoy researching about science and learning about the human body to develop my knowledge. I am currently studying BTEC level 3 sciences at St Albans Academy. I also achieved a gold Duke Of Edinburgh award and demonstrated effective leadership skills during my expeditions and practises. I The role of a dental hygienist comes with a big responsibility
After being lost, puzzled, and indecisive for a while now about which health-related career I desire the most, I finally made up my mind and selected a major. I decided to complete a Bachelor’s Degree in Health Science after accomplishing an Associate’s Degree in Science, which is an open field filled with opportunities for several health professions. I realized that a Bachelor’s Degree in Health Science is the way to go as it enables me to switch back and forth between all of the health occupations that I worship. Down the road, I can even further my education and specialize in a specific domain that I am willing to commit to. In general, Health Science is a major where professionals undergo several tasks such as improving their community’s health and overall wellbeing, get involved in nutrition related conditions, use epidemiological techniques, counteract various infections, and enrich physical and daily health routines.

When I started my undergraduate study at the University of Illinois, I chose chemistry as my major with the intention of becoming a dentist. During my undergraduate year, I gained some invaluable experiences such as working and researching in a nanotechnology lab and exploring different areas of sciences such as Environmental Chemistry and Speech and Hearing Science. I, however, was not mature enough academically and did not achieve enough academic success in order to gain an admission from dental school.
I can remember being a little boy sitting at the piano in church, listening to the preacher talk of how Jesus washed the disciples’ feet, which symbolizes the idea that we are here to serve. That message profoundly resonated with me throughout life. It was not until I began accompanying my grandmother to her multiple dental visits that I was able to see how I could put this calling of service into action. I saw firsthand the significant positive impact my grandmother’s dentist was able to make in her life, which encouraged me to want to learn about the field of dentistry. I then started researching dental health and learning of the importance of oral healthcare and how it affects the entire body. I then began to learn of how patient access to proper dental care was limited because of several factors such as, financial barriers, transportation, and dental fear, especially in the underserved minority communities. Given the shortage of black dentists, I realized I could make a positive difference by being an inspiration to those in the community, as well as serve in a professional career that would provide needed healthcare to the community. This is when I began to develop such a strong passion for
Ever since I was a little kid, I have always been intrigued by teeth, which is unusual for most people, but enticing to me. I have always been thinking about how to keep my teeth healthy and what to do to prevent cavities, gum disease, and tooth decay. My first recollection of oral surgery was when I was ten years old after I visited my uncle’s doctors office with my mother. My mother was at his office due to an infection in her gums, where she paid a large amount of money for a simple task. After that, I was so confused as to how he healed my mother's pain in less than an hour.
I plan on applying to the dental program in 2019. I really appreciate the degree plan being that it does not require a great deal of math. My intention is to move to Arizona or Colorado and practice Dental hygiene in rural and disadvantaged communities due to them having a higher rate of periodontal diseases as a result of the lack of dentist and hygienists.
I decided to do my research report on dentistry because it is a perfect blend of science and art. It is a science in that you must fully comprehend on the different types of diagnostic and procedures you are doing. It is an art in that you are constantly working with your hands to create a beautiful smile. The impact you make on helping a person achieve an impeccable smile is not one to compare with materialistic things like money or cars. People often mistake dentist as only doing practices when in fact they could do more, like research. I was fortunate enough to have been given the opportunity to interview Dr. Sarah Pham, DDS, a close family friend who practices dentistry in her own private office in Los Angeles, California. Dr. Pham was
Here, I have had the opportunity to utilize all aspects of dentistry to treat patients for routine and emergency care, including providing limited orthodontic treatment to correct minor crowding or spacing under the direction of orthodontist Dr. P.Over the course of the year, it was these patients that had the greatest impact on me personally. Each patient was eager and motivated during the course of treatment, and I found that I became very excited to document their progress with them at recall visits. While only one of my patients completed orthodontic treatment during my year of residency, debonding her brackets and seeing the joy on her face was one of the most rewarding experiences of my dental career. This residency has allowed me to further explore the vast world of dentistry, solidifying my dedication to the field of orthodontics and improving my ability to treat
