In 2014, I ranked 28th in the Dentistry Specialization Examination (DUS) and was entitled to start my specialist training at Süleyman Demirel University Faculty of Dentistry, Department of Orthodontics.
I completed my education in 2019 and received the title of Orthodontic Specialist. In the same year, I was appointed to Çorlu Oral and Dental Health Center and worked as an Orthodontic Specialist Dentist between 2019-2022. I took part in the COVID-19 pandemic that occurred during this period.
