So today was a huge reminder as to why I love dental hygiene....the reward it brings. A few classmates and I went down to Grand Rapids at the Van Andel. They were opening the doors to the homeless for free dental screenings, x-rays, and patient education. It was incredible, emotional experience. We saw over 200 people. And they all were thankful...even when we were suggesting them to extract teeth. Some of my patients in clinic dont even thank me, and it was just an incredible experience. There is light, even in dark places...
I plan in the future to partake in any opportunity to give the talent God gave me towards others.
