How do stand out in dental school?

What is the best way for a sophomore in high school to stand out when getting into dental school. I want to either be a dentist or orthodontist. I want to job shadow but don’t know how to reach out. Also, is there anything else that would deem me a good fit. My school doesn’t have many advanced science classes. Ex: No AP classes.

Why is a dental hygiene course so short compared to other difficult careers when it is such a high demand job?

I am very interested in becoming a dental hygienist, but from what I heard it’s a high demand-competitive position. At the end is it worth all of the sleepless nights? I will still fight for my dream of becoming a dental hygienist some day.

Can visually impaired or physically disabled people become dentists? Can you get time extensions in dental school if you have accommodations

I am completely blind in my left eye and I was wondering if I could still work in the oral cavity with limited vision. I am also in a wheelchair and I was wondering if there were any physically disabled dentists.

Starting the new semester I've decided to major in Dental Assisting and hopefully achieve my Certificate/Associate. What are some possible study habits I can maintain to help me be successful in the DA program?

I've been on the Dental Hygeine Waiting List for almost two years now, and I've decided to go back to school for Dental Assisting to get my foot in the Dental Field. With working a part-time job in those two years of waiting I am nervous going back to school and I currently struggle with procrastination, so what are study habits I can build along the way?
