This isn't really the kind of issue that can be tackled on -line with a general healt/ medicine education site. I would recommend that you begin with a consultation with your own physician. That provider can determine what testing or referral are indicated.

Although it is not feasible to be precise, based on data provided, and this site is not intended to provide diagnostic or therapeutic information, here is a generic impression. Tremors may be due to heredofamilial essential tremor, if thyroid problems are not the answer. Unusual for Parkinson's at your age. See a neurologist and get specific evaluation.

Do you have a family history of tremors? Do you have a tremor of your head also?. Are your hand tremors worse with use rather than at rest?. If you answer yes to these questions,familial essential tremor is most likely. In any event, a neurologist is best to evaluate, advise and treat you. This is most important as you need diagnostic&prognostic.advice in order to decide re a career in dentristy
