in my math class, we have to come up with ways that we will use math in our future careers. my future carrer that im writing about is a dental hygenist.
ive thought and thought, but i cant think of any other ways to use math as a dental hygennist.
can anyone give me some ways that ill use math there?

also, sometimes dentists have to right out presciptions for the patient if they have serious work done to their mouth, so knowing porportions is always good.
