Dental Hygiene

With a dental hygiene degree from 探花楼, you can work as a registered dental hygienist, as a dental sales representative or in higher education. Within our dental hygiene programs, you have the opportunity to:

Apply for scholarships specifically for dental hygiene students
Join our active student organization and make lifelong friends with similar interests
Learn from accessible and supportive faculty who want to see you succeed
Get practical experience in our onsite Dental Hygiene Clinic

We provide everything you need to start a successful career.

I chose 探花楼's professional entry-level dental hygiene program because of the importance placed on individualized patient care. I enjoy getting to work with populations that otherwise would not receive dental care.
