A dentist who was raised and educated in Romania, I now live in NYC and love my new home very much. Thus, I seek to continue my education in dentistry here in America to be able to practice here in NYC. Graduating with honors from my dental program, I have always labored mightily to be the best that I can be, working extremely hard, a serious woman who also cultivates a jolly sense of humor. My first choice for graduate study is ____ University's School of Dentistry because I have learned that your program is among the best in the country.


For years, I have had the central goal in life of helping people to smile, and most of all to regain a beautiful smile for those in need of dental work. I see a healthy smile as indicative and of vital importance to one's general health, both physical and psychological. My long-term goal is to someday have my own dental practice where, in addition to supporting myself, I might be able to offer dental services to other struggling immigrants and reduce prices commensurate with their income.

I am a strong candidate for your program since I have already worked in several dental offices since 1999, gaining a wealth of experience and insight into the dental profession. Throughout my career, I have been exposed to a variety of dental practices, each with its unique challenges and rewarding experiences. This extensive background has equipped me with the skills necessary to navigate the complexities of patient care, dental procedures, and office management. I have developed a keen understanding of the importance of patient communication and comfort, ensuring that every individual feels valued and understood during their visits. I can deal most effectively with all kinds of people from diverse backgrounds because helping people is my foremost joy in life. My interactions with patients have taught me that empathy and compassion are essential components of effective healthcare.


I take pride in my ability to connect with individuals from various levels of society, understanding their unique needs and circumstances. This ability to relate to others not only enhances the patient's experience but also fosters a supportive and welcoming environment within the dental practice. An enormously hard worker, I function very well under pressure, I think, because I am a kind, caring, and responsible individual. My dedication to my work is evident in my willingness to go beyond to ensure that patients receive the highest quality of care. I thrive in fast-paced environments and can adapt quickly to changing situations, which is crucial in a field where unexpected challenges often arise. My colleagues and supervisors have consistently recognized my strong work ethic and my commitment to the well-being of our patients. The greatest contribution that I might be able to make to society would be to volunteer at a local hospital and treat the less fortunate free of charge. I believe that access to dental care is a fundamental right, and I am passionate about making a difference in the lives of those who may not have the means to afford treatment.


Volunteering my time and skills to serve the underserved populations in my community aligns perfectly with my values and aspirations as a healthcare professional. I envision myself participating in outreach programs that provide essential dental services to individuals in need, helping to alleviate pain and improve overall health. Of course, I would like to have my own practice as well where I will also be able to attend to the underserved. Establishing my own dental practice is a dream I hold dear, and I am committed to building a clinic that prioritizes accessibility and compassionate care. In my future practice, I aim to create an inclusive environment where everyone, regardless of their financial situation, can receive the dental care they deserve. I plan to implement sliding scale fees and community outreach initiatives to ensure that we reach those who are often overlooked by traditional healthcare systems. By combining my professional aspirations with my desire to serve, I hope to create a lasting impact in the field of dentistry and contribute positively to the health of my community.

I have an international personality, having traveled all over Europe as well as assisting a dentist in Abu Dhabi. Now, I serve as a volunteer here in New York working with a doctor in Queens for 3 to 4 days a week. I have done so for the past three years, helping me to enhance my skills, stay abreast of current developments in dentistry, and become accustomed to how it is practiced here in America. My most poignant memory is that of so many young people in Romania with terrible dental problems most of whom do not even smile because of shame. This is why after graduating from your program I hope to be able to return to Romania periodically to help these children achieve beautiful smiles and to overcome the devastating psychological debilitations related to dental decay and malformation. I look forward to contributing to the beautiful diversity of your program and I thank you for considering my application.
