\"\"Hello everyone! My name is Meagan Rosenberg \u2013I am a Registered Dental Hygienist of just over four years. I currently reside and work in my home town; Stratford, located in Southern Ontario. I am enrolled part time with the University of British Columbia to obtain my degree in Dental Sciences with a focus on Hygiene, while working full time. I have always had a passion for teeth and have known since I was only 6 years old that I wanted to be in the Dental field. The past couple of years I have found myself becoming bored with the repetitiveness of my job, which lead me to the desire to pursue the next step in career development. Why not take the plunge now?<\/p>\n

When picking courses in high school \u2013 I knew exactly which ones I needed to take to fulfill the requirements to be considered for entry into a Dental Hygiene Program. I gained acceptance from Georgian College in Ontario, and that\u2019s where my training began. My course was a three-year advanced diploma and very intense, but in the end – I received an award called the Sunstar Preventative Award for my graduating class. This award was presented to me for my academics and clinical skills, and am beyond grateful I was the recipient.<\/p>\n

With taking my Dental Sciences degree through UBC, I am eager to gain more knowledge, insight and understanding of the science aspect behind my career. I am also hoping that with taking this degree program, I can sharpen up my \u2018critical thinking\u2019 skills- as I do love a challenge! My end goal is to be an educator for a Dental Hygiene Program, or work in the Public Health sector, as long as I can make a positive difference in the dental world!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
