Dental Hygienist

Dental hygienists are important members of the dental health team who work with dentists. Hygienists use their knowledge and clinical skills to provide dental hygiene care for patients. They use their interpersonal skills to motivate and instruct patients on methods to prevent oral disease and to maintain oral health.

A minimum of two years of college education that combines classroom and clinical coursework is necessary to become a dental hygienist.

A career as a dental hygienist offers a wide range of challenges. In the dental office, the dentist and the dental hygienist work together to meet the oral health needs of patients. Some of the services provided by dental hygienists may include: patient screening procedures; such as assessment of oral health conditions, review of the health history, oral cancer screening, head and neck inspection, dental charting and taking blood pressure and pulse.

There are many employment opportunities in the field of dental hygiene, since many dentists employ one or more dental hygienists. Hygienists are in demand in general dental practices, as well as in specialty practices such as periodontics or pediatric dentistry. Dental hygienists are responsible for some important patient care services provided in a dental office, including removing calculus, stains and plaque from teeth, applying fluoride and fissure sealants, taking and developing dental radiographs (x-rays), providing oral hygiene instructions (e.g., brushing, flossing and nutritional counseling).
