Show Notes
One of the most challenging aspects of dental hygiene education is recognizing that your instructors are still learning, too. Dana reflects on the biggest mistakes she made as a dental hygiene educator, from navigating perfectionism and rigid, militant-like academic culture to learning how to support students without losing accountability. This conversation sheds light on the pressure faculty face behind the scenes and how stronger student-faculty relationships can improve the learning environment for everyone. If you’re preparing for dental hygiene school or already in the middle of it, this episode is a reminder to pay attention not just to your study habits, but also to how you advocate for yourself, communicate with faculty, and build support systems that will carry you through the program and into practice.
