Abstract: | Dental hygienists' collaboration with social institutions, health-care workers and organisations, educational institutions, and dentistry can prevent oral diseases. Dental hygienists working in these organisations can reach an unprecedented number of people, thereby increasing preventive oral care to many undeserved. Working within a dental public health career increases choices and opportunities for the dental hygienist and benefits the public. |
