"I'm very passionate about continued education and have taken several extra courses and workshops in the past two years to expand my knowledge. One area of interest to me has been regarding dental care for patients who are undergoing chemotherapy or radiation treatments. Our practice treated many adults with oral cancer over the years, so I felt it valuable to further my education and training in this area so that I could provide better care and education for my patients. Another interest of mine was how certain oral medications could impact patients so I took a two-day workshop on the effects of medications in dentistry, which covered topics like dry mouth, oral ulcers, change in taste, yeast infections, and tooth decay. I would be very interested in continuing my education with various workshops, seminars, and online training."

The interviewer has likely already inquired about your formal education and now wants to learn if you've taken any extra courses or training on your own time to further your training and skills. Consider topics like continued training in elderly oral care, managing dental emergencies, patient education, training for unconscious patients, patients undergoing chemotherapy and radiotherapy, etc., that you may have completed since graduating. Provide the interviewer with your extra education, and if you haven't completed any, be honest and describe topics or training you would be interested in pursuing.
