Dental hygiene is a dynamic and challenging career that offers team work, personal growth, fulfillment, and extraordinary benefits, and it is the perfect career for me. As a licensed health care professional, the dental hygienist is a valuable member of the dental team providing patient care. Good qualities for a dental hygienist are compassion and enjoying talking to people; two qualities that fit my personality. I love the thought of knowing I made a positive impact in a person's health. Also, opportunities for part-time work, flexible schedules, and good pay make dental hygiene a desirable career choice for me. I have a young daughter and my husband is in Afghanistan, so a flexible schedule is important to my family life.
Until recently, I worked as a dental assistant at an office in Washington State, so I understand what it takes to become a dental hygienist. I learned at this office the importance of team work, customer service, patient care, and the workings of a dental office. I understand the importance of team work in this profession because when running behind with my work, I could always count on my colleagues to help me out. I worked with a wonderful team of highly skilled professionals that took the time to challenge and encourage me to follow my dream of becoming a dental hygienist.
A successful career begins with proper an education. The first step of my goal to be a dental hygienist will be to obtain an Associate of General Studies from Montgomery College. My plans after Montgomery College are to transfer to the University of Maryland, Baltimore campus, to obtain a Bachelor of Science in their dental hygiene program. I recognize that my career path requires a great amount of hard work and dedication, but I am determined to reach my goal. I am really interested in the various aspects of this program and if I get a suitable place to advance further, I will certainly use the opportunity to its full potential.
Dental hygiene is the ideal career for me, and this is my chosen path. The combination of a team-oriented environment, helping patient's oral health, and flexible hours is what has taken me down this path.
