Hey everybody,

I was just thinking about this at my predental society meeting last week. What is your story about getting into dentistry over anything else out there? Why is it totally your thing? What really gets you psyched about dental school and being a dentist?

Personally, I got started at an early age cleaning my dog's teeth with my dad, the former hygenist. Teeth never really grossed me out. I think dentistry is absolutely the most hands-on career out there. You get to work with a variety of great people and really develop your skills. There is always a constant challenge, yet you can raise a family at the same time.
 
The world is a happier place with better smiling people. Dentistry is not only a service to the community but an art to me. The tremendous wealth of knowledge one gains, the hands on experience you perform, and the happy clientele you obtain are some of the reasons that i became interested in this field. I also agree with what the OP mentioned: "There is always a constant challenge, yet you can raise a family at the same time."

Another reason i am interested in this field is the research one can do. I do not want to spend all of my time in the clinic doing operations, i would also like to be in a lab doing research and traveling to various conferences in different parts of the world to present my findings.

This is an awesum field and i hope all of us achieve our goals.
