[ravikc]

Hey guys,

thank you!

Try volunteering at a free dental clinic, some let predents assist. This is what I did for few months.

Try a dental mission trip if thats available to you, just another option and quite the opportunity.

I went on one of their dental trips to Nicaragua. I got great hands-on exposure to dentistry, and it definitely helped boost my application!🙂
