Quotes:
“These are states where the public can directly access a dental hygienist without first having to see a dentist.”
“Sometimes we can be instrumental in helping States understand policy changes.”
“Dental hygienists are now starting to practice in places like nursing homes, and daycares, medical offices.”
“ADHA has certainly been at the table and been very influential in the…progression of dental therapy.”
“We know that we can’t advance and improve the oral health on our own, we have to partner with other organizations.”
