Video Overview
A short look at the work of dental hygienists. Created for the US Department of Labor.
A Day in the Life
Before you inspire your first patient, you'll review every patient's chart.
As a dental hygiene tech you're the hero who helps patients relax, make their teeth look better and inspires them to floss their teeth more often. However, before you inspire the first patient you'll prepare for the day by reviewing every patient's chart. As a dental hygiene tech you'll review the patients' medical history and look to see what types of preventive treatments may be needed. You'll also find out the last time a patient visited the office and what procedures were performed, such as a new filling.
After reviewing the charts you'll meet with the rest of the staff members to determine what everyone needs to do to make the day run smoothly. You'll set up the treatment room and make sure you have ample supplies and a clean work area. Then you're ready to see your first patient.
You'll update health histories.
If you notice a patient looks anxious you'll take a couple of minutes and talk about their life and family members in order to allow time for their blood pressure to stabilize. You'll update their health history and ask if they're taking any new medications. You'll also ask your patients if they have any dental concerns. After you're done with each patient you clean and disinfect the room.
During a typical day as a dental hygienist you'll perform preventive care, you may work on patients with active gum disease, and apply sealants and fluorides to help protect your patients' teeth. You'll remove tarter, plaque and stains from teeth, and teach your patients about oral hygiene.
You'll teach your patients about oral hygiene.
During a typical day you'll use hand and power tools including ultrasonic devices and a power tool to polish teeth. As a dental hygiene tech you'll also take x-rays to look for tooth or jaw problems. Depending on the state you live in you may also be allowed to carve filling materials, temporary fillings as well as periodontal dressings.
Certifications and Licensing
In every state dental hygienists are required to be licensed and the requirements vary by state. In most states getting a license requires a degree from an accredited dental hygiene program and passing practical and written examinations. To get specific requirements contact your state's medical or health board.
Job Flexibility
Full-time versus part-time: Some dental hygiene techs work seven to eight hours a day, however over 50 percent of dental hygienists work part-time. Dentists often hire a dental hygiene tech to work just a few days a week so some dental hygiene techs work for more than one dentist.
Work location: The vast majority of dental hygienists work in dental offices.
