A Beautiful Smile

You don't have to be a president, CEO or master leader

To change the world. To change the world, you only need

a small intention,

a good heart,

and a fierce passion of contribution.

Changing the world is changing my life.

 

I want to change the world one smile at a time.

The eyes might be the window to the soul, but 

the smile is contagious alright. 

My job won't be to restore, implant or to switch out for "new sets" like the world is inclined to.

My job is to prevent, to educate you

About keeping the strongest elements of your body, something that lasts long after you're gone.

What lives on 

are your pearly whites.

To help keep them free from decay, disease and any other fight.

 

My job as a hygienist doesn't stop at the clinic.

My dream isn't finished 

Until I treat the suffering and pain 

From those who can't afford, who can't sustain 

Their beautiful smile.

Loose teeth, no teeth, black teeth, yellow teeth

It doesn't matter what lies beneath.

My dream is to help you. 

So you can have that beautiful smile too.
