Dental Hygiene
As the demands for dental care increase, dentists are entrusting many responsibilities for patient education and preventative care to dental hygienists. As many dentists hire dental hygienists for part-time work, a dental hygienist may have more than one employer, or part time. So the dental hygiene profession can offer you a great deal of flexibility. A dental hygienist’s duties include: cleaning and polishing teeth, instructing patients in good oral hygiene habits and care after dental treatment, and may include assisting dentists during examinations and treatments.
Sanford-Brown’s Dental Hygiene program includes supervised experiences in a clinical environment. So, if you’re attentive, caring, and would like the flexibility of working part-time or in more than one clinical setting, a career as a dental hygienist could be right for you.
