Hi, my name is Zulma Rico, I’m in my senior year of Dental Hygiene school, and my journey in dentistry started over 15 years ago as a dental assistant. After a decade and a half of working in fast-paced offices, I decided to turn my long-held dream into a reality by enrolling in the Dental Hygiene program at New York City College of Technology.
Today, as a senior student, I am blending my deep clinical roots with a new focus on preventive care and oral health education. My goal is to use my experience to bridge the gap between high-quality clinical care and true patient comfort, helping every person I treat feel confident in their smile.
