Dental Hygiene Basics Scholarship
My calling for dental hygiene has always been fueled by a desire to promote oral health care. Once I recognized the transformative impact a dental hygienist has on a patient, I knew I wanted to take part in that career field. Being a dental hygiene student has required both personal and academic dedication. While getting my dental hygiene prerequisites done, I quickly realized how much financial support is needed to help me succeed as a hygienist. Receiving this scholarship will help me reach my goal of becoming a successful dental hygienist.
As a college student taking dental hygiene prerequisites, I was driven to exceed my expectations in the required classes, such as anatomy and chemistry. I also participated in a high school course to broaden my knowledge of the world of dentistry. This class was a part of the Career and Technical Education Center program which allowed students to explore a career field of their interest. The course that I chose was dental assisting. I took part in the duties of a dental assistant and analyzed if that career path was for me. Dental hygiene was already an interest of mine, but the dental assisting class confirmed my passion for dentistry. The academic experiences I had in college and high school helped me to gain a broader understanding of dentistry while also confirming my determination to become a dental hygienist.
I aim to help people access the crucial dental care they need while educating my future patients on preventative dental care to reduce the high rate of certain dental conditions. I am passionate about becoming a reliable and considerate hygienist who can be trusted by my coworkers and patients.
Being prepared financially for my education is crucial to achieving my future professional goals. Receiving this scholarship would help ease the stress of financial requirements regarding my educational expenses. Additionally, receiving this scholarship would also help motivate me to keep going with my passion for dental hygiene. I am already confident in my diligence toward becoming a dental hygienist, but receiving this scholarship would give me extra confirmation that dental hygiene is my calling.
