Hi,
I am a non-traditional student in my junior year at college and I am considering taking the DAT and applying to dental school. However, I'm not sure if this would be possible for me as I have had quite a bit of dental work done. Growing up my parents never took me to see a dentist for cleanings or anything which contributed to me having to have quite a few cavities filled and a partial crown done as an adult.
I have worked very hard in school and have maintained good grades (3.9 GPA) and I feel that I would truly love to be a dentist. Would the dental work I have had keep me out of dental school? Do all of those of you applying have excellent dental histories?
