Why did you choose this particular career? I chose to become a dentist because, as a child, I had to visit a dentist several times to correct my misaligned teeth. Thus, my dentist who was also a specialist in the field of orthodontics deeply inspired me because he gave me a vague idea of ​​how I can also restore the smile and self-confidence of an individual by offering them a competent smile again by incorporating the blend of my manual creativity and mental alertness, as my dentist did for me, restoring my self-esteem and the confidence to smile again. So I found this field very satisfying and fulfilling.2. What personality characteristics are likely required for this career? How does/does your personality fit? AS a dentist, you must have a strong resolve to selflessly devote yourself to the welfare of humanity. The patient is usually... middle of paper ......h you can specialize and work more for the benefit of society. A dentist may provide his services to the community by working in a certain hospital or he may also practice privately. So, this career not only gives you ways to earn a good amount of money but also opens doors for you to help others and thus gives you a feeling of contemplation.
