"A majority of our patients come to see us because they have a problem with their teeth or gums that is causing them pain. As a dental nurse, it's rewarding to be able to care for patients and provide treatment that will bring them relief from pain and at times, improve their appearance, giving them more confidence if we're fixing a cracked tooth or creating implants for them. Our job as dental professionals is to help patients be well by educating them on appropriate oral hygiene and healthy habits. I'm really interested in working for the NHS, knowing that patients of all backgrounds and socioeconomic statuses can seek treatment to improve and maintain their health."
