I became an educator to help students overcome the challenges of dental hygiene school. 

​

However, as an educator, I witnessed crippling stress, anxiety, and lack of preparation in dental hygiene students. In a good situation, students manage to survive dental hygiene school with only slight trauma. In the worst cases, students have complete mental breakdowns and leave the program.

​

Watching my students go through this was incredibly emotional for me. I thought if I could save one student from some of the these struggles then it would be worth it. With that, Dental Hygiene Basics was born.
