There are many things that motivated me to pursue in the dental field, but one of most intresting  things to me would be how a dental assistant helps, how they do the radiographs and makes sure all  the proper equipment is ready for the doctor Nothing makes me happier than seeing a patient happy  after getting their teeth cleaned, or getting them taken care of when they have an uncomfortable pain. I chose this field because I enojoy helping people and making a difference.

One of the first real leadership positions I ever had at my school was in the Hillcrest Hospital Helpers Club. I became a member my first year at Hillcrest as a sophomore and became immediately interested in their purpose as a school club. While it may sound cliché, the members of the club, and especially the leaders, wanted to make a difference through their service. We would at least monthly participate in creating art crafts and activities for the children at Shriner’s Hospital and then deliver it to them. While it may not seem much to the average person, the happiness on the children’s faces was worth all of our efforts and more.

​To prepare for the carrier, recently I worked as an intern dental assistant at the Sunrise Dental office in Auburn, Washington. Thus, I understand what it takes to become a dental hygienist. At Doctor Sigh’s office I learned the importance of respect, teamwork, customer service, patient care, how a dental office runs everything. Doctor Singh has a wonderful team of highly skilled professionals. They took the time to challenge me and encouraged me to follow my dreams. My carrier goal in life is to wake up every day with positive energy and be happy about going to work and be around professionals that are passionate about their career and who care about the dental health of their

Firstly, in my Academic Career, I have held a multitude of leadership roles. My sophomore year , I was a class representative for Family, Career, and Community Leaders of America, commonly known as FCCLA. It was my duty to alert members and keep them up to date regarding meetings and activities. As a representative of FCCLA, I learned how to work as a unit leader and a team member.That same school year, I ran for the district office of secretary for FCCLA. The nomination and election process, gave me the opportunity to grow and nurture my leadership abilities. It was eminently challenging; but I learned the importance of discipline and hard work. I accomplished my goal and was nominated Secretary for FCCLA. This office allowed me to meet plenty

When it comes to leadership the mores experience you have, the high chance of success the team has. National Honors Society is a brilliant program, in which it allows students to take part in programs that have a positive impact on the community. This would help me in the future because with the ability to be a leader I can see what works and what does not. Also with the lessons I learn about leadership I will be able to use it in my future career field. With the experience of being a leader, I can further my career by planning events with museums and exhibits.

Dental assistant need to follow the universal precaution that OSHA has lay for them to protect themselves from getting physically hurt and avoid getting ill from infected patients in the job.

For example, varieties of colleges and jobs like to see the different activities I was a part of during high school. Also, being on student leadership would help me with job interviews, class discussions, and planning. As of now, I am a leader at Whitford Middle School, and that makes me feel proud of myself to be able to lead the school in such a positive way. In High School, there are even more opportunities in Student leadership than there are in Student council which will hopefully expand my ability to lead. Also, I have always been interested in leadership because I like to take charge of responsibilities and am always on top of my academics. During middle school, leadership has been a great way for me to get more involved with the school and help out in the best way I can. Leadership has already taught me so much, as well as helping me as an individual. I hope to learn more qualities of being a leader and become an overall better person if I get the chance to be on Student leadership at

Every second of my life has already been predestined by myself. I have made a plan for myself and I don't plan on straying from that plan any time soon.

I’ve applied for IB English, IB Spanish, Honors Math III, Honors Chem, AP History, Nursing and Jrotc.

Throughout the duration of my life, roles of leadership have influenced my stance towards my major, most notably my role in the Girl Scouts of America. Committing to Girl Scouts for thirteen years has given me ample opportunities to positively impact others. It has also given me real world scenarios in which I had the chance to resolve disputes, interact with diverse people, and contribute to several projects that bettered my community. I take pride in my time with the Scouts, as it not only benefitted me by personally transforming me into a young professional with a strong work ethic and morals, but it allowed me to help others and work on understanding the world around me. My most significant and rewarding project involved conducting research

I look forward to using my leadership experience, organization and detail orientedness to assist in situations when challenges arise. Being part of Youth LEAD Group and Windsor Mountain has prepared me to be a team member and taught me how to work with various personalities. Most importantly, I learned how to be an effective leader, being flexible

I've very adaptive to new technology such as programs used for online documentation and electronic MARS. Other registered staff in my unit often comes to me for problem solving and troubleshooting with our online documentation program. I always put my patients first and I take the time to listen to my patients & families, no matter how busy my schedule may be. I work well under pressure and in a solo or team environment. I strive to become more knowledgeable in nursing in order to provide the best care I can to my clients In order to excel at my profession and passion I need to do everything I can to make myself better. As part of that, I did not stop with Bachelors, I did my masters, then I did Medical-surgical certification & I am also certified preceptor, have certification from UCF. My upbringing developed my core beliefs of community, family, loyalty, compassion and honesty. It also taught me that all things worthwhile require hard work. I love being a nurse, but recognize my yearning for more. I love nursing and have enjoyed my time as a floor nurse although my work experiences are acutely based, I have observed the direct relation between primary and acute care. As a nurse primarily working with patients, I have observed how patient miseducation, miscommunication, and

Pediatric dentists work with younger children in need of oral care through creating a friendly and comfortable environment. In an interview, Adam Shisler, DDS, explains the daily life of a pediatric dentist. The dentist and staff begin the day at 8:30 AM by going over the game plan and relevant charts for the day. Then, they begin check ups, appointments, and in office sedations until the afternoon when they take an hour to an hour and half lunch break. After this break, the practice resumes their work in the office until 5:00 or 5:30 in the evening. The schedule that comes along with dentistry tends to stay flexible, with hours that dentists may schedule to their own, personal preference (Shisler). The fact that Pediatric dentists work specifically with children, makes this field of dentistry different from any other type. Anyone who has an interest in dentistry as well as working

A pediatric dentist is the only dentist that is trained and equipped to take care of your child's dental needs. You take your kids to a pediatrician – so it only makes sense to have your children's teeth taken care of by a pediatric dentist. A pediatric dentist understands the special dental needs that children require.

There are many careers to look into and get interested in taking. One career that caught my eye is a pediatrician. Interacting with a child's physical and emotional health is in my view of career choices. The job deals with a child's development, well being, and also deals with diseases along with disabilities. I've always wanted to go into the medical field and also always wanted to deal with the birth of children so I think becoming a pediatrician will help to fulfill that due to the job helping children in need of it and taking care of a newborn child from birth to the young adult.
