Summary

As a foreign trained dentist and a DMD candidate in Boston University Henry M. Goldman School of Dental Medicine, I aspire to become a licensed dentist in the US and provide high-quality dental care to diverse populations. I am passionate about advancing my knowledge and skills in dentistry and learning from the best faculty and mentors in the field.

I have years of experience as a dental assistant at various dental offices, where I handled all necessary duties in a busy dental clinic without supervision. I earned consistent praise from patients and employers for my warm, friendly demeanor and superb dexterity during all dental procedures. I also contributed to increasing patient retention and loyalty by providing superb customer service and education on oral health and hygiene. I am eager to apply my expertise in a variety of clinical settings and scenarios and to pursue my career goals as a dentist.
