I chose this major due to the different reasons which are from experience when I went to the dentist I loved how interactive my dental hygienist was with me and how they explained to me more in-depth about the profession. I also like how versatile\/flexible the career is and it&#8217;s not only limited to working in a clinical environment. There should be more representation of people of color in dentistry or just healthcare in general, so I definitely want to be an inspiration for women of color to be ambitious and strive for high-leading careers. Overall just informing and helping people about their oral health is something I want to pursue\/do. I don&#8217;t really have experience in dental hygiene as of right now, but I plan to gain\/build experience throughout my college career at Old Dominion University. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/sites.wp.odu.edu\/sarah-bosco\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/34568\/2023\/10\/IMG_7289-1.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"866\" src=\"https:\/\/sites.wp.odu.edu\/sarah-bosco\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/34568\/2023\/10\/IMG_7289-1-1024x866.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-196\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sites.wp.odu.edu\/sarah-bosco\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/34568\/2023\/10\/IMG_7289-1-1024x866.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/sites.wp.odu.edu\/sarah-bosco\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/34568\/2023\/10\/IMG_7289-1-300x254.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/sites.wp.odu.edu\/sarah-bosco\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/34568\/2023\/10\/IMG_7289-1-768x650.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/sites.wp.odu.edu\/sarah-bosco\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/34568\/2023\/10\/IMG_7289-1-850x719.jpeg 850w, https:\/\/sites.wp.odu.edu\/sarah-bosco\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/34568\/2023\/10\/IMG_7289-1.jpeg 1284w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The major I&#8217;m pursuing is Dental Hygiene.
