Best student of the 2017-2022 promotion of Dentistry by the UMU
The student will receive an award in Madrid on the 24th in recognition of her good work in the degree
Paula García, who is currently 22 years old, completed her first primary studies at the Gerónimo Belda de Cieza school and later went to the IES Diego Tortosa in the town, where she obtained an honors degree with the average grade of the first and second years of Bachiller. As a prize after her successful career, she received a ‘pen drive’. Already at the university and given her excellent previous record, she was able to enroll for free when she started in 2017. Later, during the five years of her career and in various subjects, she obtained honors, which ultimately resulted in obtaining the best university record. . In Madrid, Paula García will face off with the best in all of Spain and she will be presented with a band and a diploma.
What is the goal of a dentist?
–Treating patients without causing them pain has to be the goal of any dentist. And, obviously, respond to the particular needs of each case with quality care and efficiency.
EFFORT
“The award is a boost to follow the path of my dreams”
– What is your final degree project?
–It is a study of systemic lupus erythematosus, prepared together with my colleagues María Pilar Pecci-Lloret and Ricardo Elías Oñate-Sánchez. We offer a detailed explanation of systemic lupus erythematosus and its autoimmune characteristics, emphasizing the consequences that the disease can have on the mouth and teeth. The most frequent oral manifestations are oral ulcers in young patients, hypo-salivation, pigmentation, glossodynia or burning mouth syndrome, cleft tongue, cheilitis, arthritis and secondary Sjögren’s syndrome.
–How do you feel about its publication in the ‘International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health’?
–It is an honor and an accolade to continue working in this line. All efforts have their reward and it is very gratifying to see how we are progressing. The international journal of environmental research and public health is a leading newspaper in science, engineering and health, among other disciplines. On October 24 I will receive an award at the Complutense University of Madrid. A real gift.
– A short-term dream?
-All dentists dream of having their own practice, but today that would be very expensive. It is a long-term project. For now, I would like to work in a clinic in my hometown.
