"It came out of a conversation with my dad after I finished my BA at Southern New Hampshire University. ... I have a wife and a young kid at home. ... My dad told me to branch out, and I did, and it turned out to be one of the better decisions I've made."Christopher SweetClass of 2026, Pre-Modern History major
Dentists play a key role in the early detection of oral cancer and other systemic conditions of the body that manifest themselves in the mouth. They often identify other health conditions, illnesses, and other problems that sometimes show up in the oral cavity before they are identified in other parts of the body. Dental schools are seeking individuals who are well rounded in their educational background.
