  • Summary

  • Do you want to become a dental hygienist? The Dental Hygiene Basics Podcast is hosted by Dana, a dental hygienist and dental hygiene educator. While there are several resources that help students during and after dental hygiene school, there are few available for those who are applying to dental hygiene school. Dental Hygiene Basics was founded to provide insight into the admissions process, display alternative career paths for dental hygienists, and highlight the path to a successful first year of dental hygiene school. Dana has worked with first year dental hygiene students as an educator, and she has seen the struggles they face throughout the application process and their first year of school. Dana believes that preparation powers performance. By sharing personal stories, Dana and her guests motivate, encourage, and prepare future dental hygiene students for these experiences. The goal is to help YOU become a registered dental hygienist!
