MY FUTURE JOB

    Thinking about my future job is somewhat difficult, since I am just beginning my career, and so many specialties and subareas come from it; in addition to deciding whether to pursue a clinical or research area. I don't even know what I will think about in a few more years ... However, several times I have questioned what my future will be like; and based on my current self, I think I would make the decision to specialize in Pediatric Dentistry, it is a specialty that attracts me a lot, firstly because it is a clinical area, secondly because I have always liked contact with children. 

    Also I think that the stage where the human being is most susceptible is in childhood, I have read that many people are afraid of the dentist, and that this fear is born from their childhood. Many people have a terrifying first visit to the dentist which makes them never go again. This means that in the future these people have worse oral health as time passes and they even commit great atrocities to avoid going to the dentist, such as extracting their teeth at home or self-medicating. 

    Instead, a professional can make a change in that person's life. If in the first visit you have a good experience in the dental consultation, it is most likely that that person will periodically go to dental check-ups, and therefore have better oral health and, according to many studies, also better health in general.
