    I can't wait to start the program. I've been accepted! On 150 applications, my school only choose 30! But as a male, I'm scary to feel lonely.

    I know how she feels about not being sure she will be good at what she does, and I am also looking forward to the time when I will excel at what I want to do for the rest of my life....one step at a time. This will all be worth it in the end.... :) I'm a first year dental hygiene student. Good luck!

    They didn't wear gloves or disinfect the area because they didn't know about many infectious diseases. With HIV/AIDS it is vital to treat every patient as if they have an infectious disease. This is to protect the patient as well as the dental team.

    A register dental Hygiene makes starting from $21 to maximum $45 an hour. they make more then 100,000+BONUS COMMISSION based on TIME and WORKING EXPERIENCE i will complete my Dental Hygiene program in Bachelors.i stay in Maryland. and i will be applying at University of Maryland School of Dentistry(UMB) Most likely you will have to go to a Dental School to get your degree in Dental Hygiene Dental School contains several other programs as well... different then becoming a DENTIST=MEDICAL SCHOOL

  • @tinaslone9110

    @kaybutterflyz 12 лет назад +1

    I've been looking into dental hygiene as a profession and I'm just trying to do some research and decide on whether this is something that I really want to do. So far it seems very interesting but the problem that I'm coming across is that is the part of Louisiana where I live there aren't many schools that have programs for dentistry. The ones that are in Louisiana are miles from where I reside. So I guess now its all about whether I really want to make a move or commute. Or maybe there's a on

      wrkin90044 a university has offered me to study Biomedical Science with entry straight to 3rd year. I took this course instead bcz it would mean i only have study 2 years of it and graduate with a Honours.. which is better than an ordinary degree. I am currently on my last semester of my last year. This course also opens up routes to Medicine/Dentistry courses and also boosts up my CV

  • @88KhanOmar
    @88KhanOmar 12 лет назад

    First You have to decided if you want to become a Dental Hygienist or a Dentist...
    Dentist:2+2+4=8years-Associate+Bachelors+4 year Medical School
    Dental Hygiene=2years-Complete all the Prerequisite to get into Dental Program
    Bachelors is the MAXIMUM you can get to for a Hygienist
    You major does not have to be Science to get into a Dental School BUT... ONCE your in Dental School you must pick a Major you don't have to pick Science as your major you can pick chemistry there are a lot of options

  • @AquariusLovers
    @AquariusLovers 12 лет назад

    by becoming a dental hygienist in bachelors you can then apply to dental school? without getting a bachelors in science?do you take the same required courses?

  • @haneul107
    @haneul107 11 лет назад

    Well, being honest here, it'd be hard, since hygienists have to communicate with their patients a lot. Try and see a speech therapist if you aren't already.

    • @RomanStiles93
      @RomanStiles93 10 лет назад

      Well I am in my first year at one of the best DH programs around and also the only male this year so you will get all of the attention so the pressure is on. It isn't easy but you don't want being the only guy to make you choose another career if Dental Hygiene is what you really want to do.

    • @RomanStiles93
      @RomanStiles93 10 лет назад

      It is more encouraging and I'm sure they feel that I have what it takes because out of almost 70 applicants, they chose 20 and Im surrounded by 19 females. And I was an alternate TBH and I guess someone dropped out, so they basically gave me a chance out of all those people. They could've easily declined me if they thought me being a male was wasting time.

      Daniella Montero cause in Germany you don't have to study unless you wanna be a dentist . It's pretty much the same as being a dental assisten; you just have to take some extra courses for it
