African American female periodontist here! Nice channel! I’m not into social media or anything but way to go! For anyone out there aspiring to enter the field of dentistry from assisting to hygienist to general dentist to specialist.... you can do it! It’s a great field..... nice work!
HEY LOVE! I’ve watched you for over 2 years now and never commented but here I am now. I’m going back to school and finishing up my prerequisites and hopefully apply for the Hygiene program next January. Please believe everyone when they say you are an inspiration especially for us women of color. You have motived me through your UA-cam videos to go back and finish. I truly, thank you for that! Much love from all the way in HOUSTON TEXAS!
Hey Patty! I'm in Houston also doing my prerequisites too!!!! How's it been going for you because I stress the hell out, but videos have oddly put a calm ovet me.
@@gigiatkinson2537 also tajah has a video talking about how not to have fear. It's on her video titled 'How I Fix My Credit& How Much I Make As A Dental Hygienist. She is wearing a white a pink outfit holding a champagne glass. And speaks about fear towards the end of the video Watch the video its good&comforting
im applying to the dental hygiene program this year and I really hope I get in. Your videos keep me motivated and excited to work as a dental hygienist!
I dont mean to be offtopic but does someone know of a method to get back into an Instagram account..? I was dumb lost the password. I love any tips you can offer me.
I love this video so much. It gave me so much motivation and inspiration. Im a nurse working in a hospital. From watching your videos this past year, I've decided that a physician's office would best suit me. The hospital is very hectic and a patient can code at any time. I definitely need the structure of an office setting as opposed to the chaos of a hospital setting.
I turned 26 a little over a week ago and have decided to change my career to become a RDH! I've worked in the HR field since graduating with my BS in 2016 but it hasn't given me what I want in a career. You're so motivating!
I can't wait to be done with school and get to relax and live comfortably.. If you don't mind me asking tho, has your pay increased? What's your salary like with the 12 hour shifts
Got top of my class in my assisting program. Reapplying for my state’s only hygiene program this may. I love watching your videos they make me want to work even harder for my future!
I love watching your dental hygienists videoing you really inspire me even though I’m going into the health field you make me wanna pursue the dental field as well your such an inspiration keep it up
Hey, I'm from Brazil and I simply love your vlogs, they show all your love from beying a dental hygenist. Also i've noticed that your instruments aren't perfectly dry when comming out of the outoclave, this may indicate that the instruments was wet when packed (they should be completely dry), the autoclave was overloaded or even not working properly.
I'm having such a hard time deciding whether to do hygiene or surgery tech! But your videos have been awesome to watch to see what id be getting myself into. Does it seem too repetitive?
Our career fields are totally different!!! (I’m in the education field) However you are very inspiring. I love watching how you get ready in the am and how focused you are at work. Can’t wait to see what you have in store for 2020
So I know ur a hygienist and I see you do a lot of setting up and cleaning I’m just curious, do you have assistants that help you with other things or you don’t have assistants? I’m still new to all this and just was confused.
Tristin Snodgrass there’s Dental assistants for the Doctors and Hygiene assistants. Most hygienist work solo unless an assistant is provided/there to help in high volume clinics. Hygienists do everything from greeting/dismissing, xrays, set up/breakdown of rooms, consults with their patients on oral health, etc. besides the exam which the Doctor does
I was working at an office 8-5 for a year and a half straight out of hygiene school and when I tell you burn out it real, I’ll never work 5 days again. I would love to find somewhere that did the 3 twelve our shifts.
Thank you so much for sharing how you set up the syringes! It really helps me mentally prepare for what I’ll be learning in RDH school! Do you give the shots or does the doctor? I’ll be getting my license in Utah a few years from now!
Hygienists weren't allowed to give anesthesia years ago but now we can as long as you have your license of course lol. As for myself, I live in Jersey and every state has different requirements. I learned my skills in hygiene school and when I finished and took all my exams/boards I went ahead and took the anesthesia exam as well. Some hygienists choose not to because their too scared to give anesthesia or they nust dont want to but I did because I have been a dental assistant since I was 18 yrs old (34 yrs old now) and have witnessed hygienists having to wait so long for the doctor to give their patient injections.I like to control MY schedule and hate when it's overthrown by slow doctors. Alot of offices have started to require it from hygienists nowadays tho because it frees up time in their schedule with patients as well.
I love your videos in how we get an idea of what this profession is all about and your positive attitude just excites me and makes me want to be a hygienist already!! Much love keep doing what your doing 😆💕
a.b I don’t know if I would describe the material as “hard”. But going into the program with no prior dental experience (I was not a dental assistant before starting hygiene) I would say it’s definitely like an entirely new language. All the dental terms etc. but that’s what they teach you right off the bat and in no time you get the hang of it. Then moving on to the studies, it’s all basically pretty standard science/anatomy. Like grade 11/12 sciences knowledge is definitely needed but not a MUST... teachers are there to help you and you have to be willing to put the time in to study lots. Hygiene school is what you make of it - you’re paying lots of money to learn and it’s definitely all worth it. If I compare it to a bachelors of medical science in a university program - it’s defiantly A LOT easier than that. Hope this helps!
I’ve been watching for alittle while now. You’ve inspired me so much! I’m going to be starting pre reqs this year. I think you’ll blow up on UA-cam. When you do, will you quit your dental hygiene job??
Hey can you make a video on when administering local anesthesia? I might be going to DH school soon but I am nervous about administering local anesthesia.
Do you have to get quality assurance checks after every patient by the dentist? In the Air Force I’m a prophylaxis tech and we have to get a certain amount a month. I want to go to hygiene school when I get out just trying to see the similarities
Sometimes I have to watch at least one or two videos before my work shift to get me through the day. 🙌🏾 You stay coming through with the content friend!!
Great vlog Tajah👍 i really enjoy it💕💕 i love when my days are busy too for me the time moves faster didnt know you did deep scaling 😨 i look at all your video very informative keep it up 💓💓 wishing you all the best for 2020🤗💞🤗
I’ve been waiting since the New Year started to see a vlog from you. Great vlog as always and Happy New Year 🥳🎉🎈🎊🤗🍾. You’re new scrubs are really cute 👍🏾👏🏾🤗.
I love your office’s setup!! It’s very aesthetically pleasing hahah! I’m a DA and taking my prerequisite courses for applying to hygiene programs in TX in January. Anyone have any tips? The program I want to get into is very competitive and only accepts 12 students a year 🤯
Happy New Year!!! I like the scrubs you got, I ordered some joggers myself a few months ago I love them!! I am also 5ft 6in so I understand your struggle. Ugh!! I will be starting school this month. I'm excited!! It's prerequisites for the hygiene. I like watching your videos when your at work. You are really lucky to have such a nice office. I wish my office had some of those things office has. I'm starting to ramble but keep making these videos. And soon I'm ordering some merch from you. Good for you in you eating healthy and staying top of that. I make smoothies using spurlina is have you tried that? Keep vloging look forward to the next video.
i watch your videos all the time and i think this is what i wanna do.. i’m turning 18 soon.. college in the fall but the only dental hygienist programs are out of town and i’m not ready to live away from my family 😩
Hi,thank you for your videos,the are so inspiring. I have one question,i m Haitian,i study Dentistry in Dominican Republic,i'll graduate this year and have my bachelor's degree in Dentistry ,But i have American dreams,so how can apply to dental Hygienist in New-York or Florida? i want to start with this option for this moment i m waiting your answer...
Hi , quick question , I really would love to go to a four year university just to get that experience but I heard you say you did community college , do you recommend that instead of a four year ?
I'm watching your channel you are such an inspiration I dropped out of high school I went back in 2017 to get my high school diploma however since then I went to school for esthetics however I want to do more I Just request more info from a school where I live fingers crossed I'm about to binge watch all your videos😘❤
Hello everyone! I am a DH student 2nd semester. We are starting to get things together for a clinic bag. My professor sent a list of a few things that we will need to bring. Does anyone have any thing that they need in clinic? Looking for suggestions for something I could have missed. Thanks in advance!
Ok how are you even functioning so early let alone looking this good so early, what time you go to bed? I can’t in the morning, I start work at 8am and can only shower and throw my scrub on
Do you get irritated when people come for a cleaning and bring a toddler? Asking for myself lol I took my daughter I had no choice and I’m 5’ 6” too I order longs

Does the dentist just observe in your office or is it 2 different offices?
I’m an RDH too! when you said “let me tell you what I’m going to do when I get home. In that order. Get rid of these scrubs” Had me dead😂
emshaks you feel my pain 🤣
Was the material in the program hard?

I’ve been watching for alittle while now. You’ve inspired me so much! I’m going to be starting pre reqs this year.
I think you’ll blow up on UA-cam. When you do, will you quit your dental hygiene job??
Chelsey Hammond I don’t think she would because that’s her career and UA-cam is not stable enough for someone to live off of
tajah where do you get your glasses from? i'm looking for a new pair of clear glasses and loveeee the ones you have!
Hey can you make a video on when administering local anesthesia? I might be going to DH school soon but I am nervous about administering local anesthesia.
Aletse Sellav it was my favorite part of hygiene school. It’s easy to learn and retain, like muscle memory you’ll do great!

Do you work at a general office? I'm not too sure if I should work at a general or peds office after graduation 😭😩 Help lol!!
You are so beautiful! 💗
That smoothie looks good. I’m gonna try that. Love the new scrubs too. ❤️
Why not wear gloves when setting up the room?
Because your hands should be clean and in the dental office gloves are considered dirty even if they're not.
