  • Essay / Personal Statement for Dentistry - 726

    For me, I find dentistry to be my passion and I want to pursue this career, that of a pediatric dentist to be exact. I love being with children and I have great patience for them. When most people think of dentistry, they think, “Ew…teeth?” Disgusting…” For me, I don’t find it disgusting or repulsive. I actually find it quite fascinating. As surprising as it may seem, when I was younger, I was terrified of going to the dentist at first. I had so many terrifying thoughts running through my head. Growing up, I had my dentist visits at Super Smiles. The hygienists and staff were very friendly and comforting. They were practically part of my life. Each visit, they would catch me up on life, I would talk to them about everything, and they would give me advice on what to do when I had problems. Although they have all been very wonderful to me, no one compares to my dentist, Dr. Williams. I have never seen anyone so passionate about what they do. I've never seen anyone so good with kids until I saw him. I mean this man has been in the business for over fifty years now. I'm sure if he didn't retire he would still be working. To this day I am very grateful to have had the opportunity to have him in my life, he played a major role in my field.
