Our Dental Hygiene students will take part in celebrating National Dental Hygienists Week™ by setting up booths across campus. They will focus on the importance of maintaining good oral health practices and helping the public understand the role and importance of the dental hygiene profession. This annual event is sponsored by the Canadian Dental Hygienists Association (CDHA). The week's theme, "Oral Health for Total Health" reminds all of us that taking care of our mouth, teeth and gums positively impacts on other aspects of our lives.
