Thank you for visiting my ePortfolio!
Hello and welcome! My name is [Your Name], and I’m a proud graduate of the Dental Hygiene program at Salt Lake Community College.
Over the course of my education, I’ve developed a deep appreciation for the connection between oral health and overall wellness. My training has equipped me with the clinical skills, critical thinking, and compassionate care needed to serve a diverse patient population. From performing periodontal therapy and administering local anesthesia, to educating individuals and communities on preventive care, I strive to make a positive and lasting impact on every smile I encounter.
Beyond the classroom and clinic, I’ve had the opportunity to participate in a variety of service-based learning experiences—ranging from providing care at low-cost community clinics, to giving oral health presentations in schools, to advocating for my profession at Lobby Day. These experiences have shown me the importance of civic engagement and have fueled my passion for promoting access to care and health equity.
As I look ahead, I’m excited to continue growing in this field, providing ethical, evidence-based care, and empowering patients through education. Whether I’m working chairside, volunteering in the community, or staying current through continuing education, I am committed to lifelong learning and meaningful service.
