Dental hygienists are educated health professionals who specialize in the promotion of oral health and prevention of oral disease. In addition to earning a diploma or bachelor’s degree in dental hygiene from a college or university accredited by The Commission on Dental Accreditation of Canada, practicing dental hygienists must be registered with the dental hygiene regulatory authority in their province or territory

​

Dental hygienists are not only vital for evaluating brushing and flossing techniques, but planning and implement oral care interventions, various client motivational and communication strategies, and both process and outcome evaluation. They also perform periodontal therapy, which includes assessing and recording the overall oral conditions, commonly called charting, providing scaling and root planing, teeth cleaning, and taking measures for oral disease prevention. Dental hygienists are also able to apply dental sealants and administer fluoride.
