Dental Hygiene

LEARN TO HELP OTHERS SMILE MORE

Our CODA-accredited Dental Hygiene Degree programs offer you the foundation of science, professional knowledge and clinical skills you need to help others preserve their oral (and overall) health.

As a Dental Hygienist, you’re an integral part of the dental team working directly with patients, helping them with their oral care. Hygienists clean teeth, examine patients for oral diseases, take and develop x-rays, and provide other preventive dental care. Most Dental Hygienists work in dental offices, but some work in a physician’s office or with the government.
