I am now doing my prerequisites to become a dental hygienist. I’m really excited about the career, but due to having chronic depression in my teenage years, I could not perform self care tasks like brushing my teeth. I now have periodontitis. I feel like no one will want to hire me because they will think I either don’t know how to take care of teeth, or that I will be a bad image for their business. I feel very ashamed for it.

Thank you!!! I've been a mom since I was 16 and have fully revolved my life around being a mom for over 16 years now. My youngest and last baby will be starting pre-k at the end of 2024, so I'll have more freedom to focus on improving my career and education. 🎉 I never graduated HS, so I'm starting from the very bottom with needing to get my HSED first. My end goal is to become a RDH ❤ I'm researching and learning as much as possible to make it there! I really appreciate all of your informative content 😊 I already memorized teeth numbers and what each surface is called and where it's located on the tooth thanks to your videos!! I've also memorized the 3 numbering systems and how to read them 🤗 Thank you so much again ❤ You're awesome!!

Love these videos! Thank you for the motivation. I’m becoming a dental assistant and these videos are very helpful ❤️

I'm in dental assisting school (graduate in October) and plan to go to Carrington college after a year in the field. They require you to have dental experience!! They also teach all your pre rec's there so no need to get them done first! I'm so excited to move on in a career Im actually excited about. I watch all your videos because they give me such a heads up into the field!!!

Do you think it’s still worth it to try and shadows dentist office during this time

[AMJGant]

Do you know of anyone body that is currently or was a dental hygienist and also went to Dental School. I am currently pre dental and I am hoping to get into the dental Hygiene program. So I want to become a hygienist first and if I like that I want to go to Dental School, but I was wondering what are peoples opinions on balance and how possible it is to be a Dental Hygienist and go to Dental School at the same timel?!? Any advice would help. Thanks in advance

Very helpful video thank you I am just getting some stuff ready to apply for

How long did it take you to complete the prerequisites?

[ARUSAMAREDIA]

love the way u share everything so clearly, i just wanted to know can a registered dental hygienist go to dental school directly without repeating those 4 years before entering to a affiliated dental school?

[d.k.]

I’m trying to find information on people who went to hygienist school then went on to dental school, but I can’t find anything. I felt like it would be clever so that way a person can do hygienist work while in dental school that way they could really gain a unique experience from the craft and have a job. Do people really do this though?

[tiaupshaw]

How do I start? Like what EXACTLY is my first step?

[nicolesmith]

i love your videos, currently i am in school getting my a.s. in general studies in order to transfer to a 4 year however i am considering becoming a dental hygienist and i was wondering what if i graduate with a.s. degree in general studies would i then apply to a aas in dental hygiene or would just go straight to a bachelors? i am confused because i dont know what route to go because i am already on track with a as degree

[brownboii]

Are the perquisites for dental hygiene difficult?

[blue_frost]

[weaklinque]

Hello, do you know if it is significant to get a B or higher in chemistry for your pre requisites? I am going to school to become a dental hygienist but i currently have a C and i don’t think my grade will get any better. Thank you!
