"The thing I love most about my career of choice is that I have seen first hand that what we dental technicians do makes a world of difference to the patients that needs oral appliances. This in itself makes me enjoy being able to supply my service. Being able to change lives one smile at time is my way of giving back to the world. The cons of my job is that it can become very stressful and sometimes people want technicians to create miracles or we have to create something with little to work with."
