AMEN!!! I got into dental hygiene on my first try. Did well in classroom but struggled in clinic. I ended up failing the first semester of my second year. I went straight into dental assisting program, became president of my class, graduated, got a great job, reached out to my hygiene program and have now been readmitted!!! I start back in two weeks!! Never give up on your dreams!! ✨❤️

I applied to dental hygiene school five years in a row and made the wait list once. I felt like I was never good enough although I had good grades (they low key wanted you to have a 4.0 or a masters degree apparently) and a packed resume with lots of dental experience and community service. It shattered my heart that I never got in. I gave up on that dream I had always had because I didn’t see them letting me in after the 6th, 7th, or 8th time either… I am now an ICU nurse. Too dumb to be a hygienist I guess but not too dumb to save your life 🤷🏻♀️

@Karla Toledo Hey Karla! Two months later and I'm rewatching this gem again 😜 I had an exam today for a pre-req and it was super demoralizing. Each question was 7+ lines long (which is fine)... but the prof only gives us 30 seconds to answer before moving to the next... he doesn't let you ask questions... nor go back to review... I broke down and cried my eyes out right after because I felt so disappointed in myself. I studied so hard and I know I know my stuff, but to churn out answers in 30 seconds is extremely challenging. Hearing your words of encouragement is exactly what I needed. Like you said, tonight I'll cry, feel sad, do some sobbing but tomorrow, I'll get up and try even harder. Your words are so empowering.

Think twice before going to hygiene school. I've been doing it for 2 years and it's awful. It's all about selling products to your patients and getting the most money out of them. Patient care is not #1 anymore, it's about money. You will have 30 to 40 minutes per patient and will see from 10 to 15 a day. Private dentist are getting bought out by big cooperations and changing everything.

Understand that there’s millions of people out there. Everyone wants a piece of the pie. The way the system works is so that a few people succeed and the others fail. It’s just business. It has nothing to do with merit or hard work. Don’t listen to all that toxic positivity bs. Don’t be a slave to extreme goals. Set goals that are realistic. You can achieve them all the time. Too many shattered dreams, student debt, high expectations, lust for money/material possessions, too many stressful tests, too much money invested with no outcome. Lots of energy, little relaxation, too little laughter , a lot of reading and typing, too much worry for the future, less contentment in the present.It’s like trying to find Eldorado. Be happy with what u have. Live in the moment. Don’t confine into the social construct of “success”. What society deems “ successful”. You make your own definition of success.

I just found your KZfaq channel and omg you’re making me feel so much better😭😭 I’m currently 21 years old about to turn 22 I have changed my major like 3 times 😭😭 I’m currently taking my prerequisites to become a pediatric dental hygienist but lately I have been feeling very overwhelmed and discouraged since the DH is very competitive. I’m now stuck between being a pediatric dental hygienist or a pediatric dental assistant 😭😭😭
@karlatoledo20693 жыл бұрын
If your able to ,stick with dental hygiene,it’s not always about the money but as a hygienist you definitely earn more money and school is only 2 years after prerequisites,You also have more freedom,work more independently vrs as an assistant your working alongside with the dentist.You are so young,it’s normal to change your careers path,We all have gone through that!You are so close don’t give up now and yes Dh is competitive but if I did it so can you!trust the process!

Such an unorganized program, they are supposed to officially inform applicants by e-mail or mail only. They should know that people can't touch the phone during work. For example, My phone is usually in work locker. I don't access to them during work time. Well, if you happened to get in to this program, I believe there were so many messed up things inside. Maybe better to apply elsewhere.

Wow. I have a lot to say about this video. Firstly, this is by far the BEST KZfaq video I've ever seen! Your words are extremely encouraging and I can tell that you are super genuine (& gorgeous!) I've been taking prerequisites for the DH program at my school for the past year and I apply this Spring. I haven't really figured out why I want to be a hygienist (still unsure of what career I want to pursue) but hearing your reasons for applying for the program really spoke to me. Watching this video has encouraged me to work hard for the things I want. Definitely looking forward to more of your videos (new subscriber after watching this video) 💕

I’m still debating if I should pursue dental hygiene or go into business. I also received a two year scholarship for an associates degree and I want to use it for something that I want to do.

Just call upon His name and everything will be okay 🕊 If you want to receive the truth & willfully accept Jesus into your life, its this easy.. say this “Dear Lord Jesus, come into my heart. Forgive me of my sin. Wash me and cleanse me. Set me free. Jesus, thank you that You died for me. I believe that You are risen from the dead and that You’re coming back again for me. Fill me with the Holy Spirit. Give me a passion for the lost, a hunger for the things of God and a holy boldness to preach the gospel of Jesus Christ. I’m saved; I’m born again, I’m forgiven and I’m on my way to Heaven because I have Jesus in my heart.”
