Answers:
OK...there is a BIG difference between a dentist, an orthodontist, and a dental hygienist.

YES, I would say it would be good to take as much math and science as you can IF you want to be a dentist or an orthodontist. The thing is.....you will need to go 4 years to college. THEN, after that...go on to dental school (and it's very competitive to get into)....THEN, after that, if you choose to....you go on for more training as an orthodontist.

If you want to become a dental hygienist....a simple high school diploma WITHOUT taking any hard classes is fine. This would be a simple two-year program at a community college or other university.

Hope this helps!Health Question & Answer
