Ways to Support Dental Hygienists Right Now with Crest + Oral-B

Happy National Dental Hygiene Month! This is definitely our favorite month for so many reasons. Celebrating some of our favorite people, dental hygienists, is definitely one of the highlights! We believe it’s so important to celebrate our profession and colleagues, so we’ve compiled a few ideas that we’ve been doing this month: 

 

  1. Call a mentor and express your gratitude for them. This call may be very short, but it definitely can make a big impact on a dental hygienist in your life. Celebrate them and how they’ve helped you accomplish your career and life goals through their guidance and example. 

  2. Take a CE course created by a dental hygienist. We all know how smart dental hygienists are. Let’s learn from each other by supporting and celebrating each other. Did you know that Crest and Oral-B offer free CE courses on dentalcare.com - including dental hygienist created content! Choose from more than 150 FREE dental continuing education courses. DentalCare.com also offers a variety of educational resources and new product information to enhance your career.  

  3. Support a dental hygienist owned company. There are several amazing RDH run companies that could use a little love right now. It has been a hard year for everyone, so making a purchase from them could definitely turn their month around. 

  4. Make a daily commitment to the oath we made at graduation and be a bit better each day. We all stood up at our dental hygiene graduation and recited the Dental Hygiene Oath committing ourselves to helping patients and our communities improve their health, keep learning, and to do no harm. Print off the oath and hang it in your operatory as a daily reminder to be a bit better each day. 

 We can definitely make it through this tricky time by supporting each other. We want to say thank you to all of you, our amazing friends and community members, for supporting us as well! We have been so grateful for you for helping us and all RDHs through a crazy time we never imagined in dentistry. Knowing we have such an amazing community makes us #hygienistproud. 

And a big thank you to Crest + Oral B for supporting dental hygienists with Hygienist Proud! Learn something new this month through www.dentalcare.com where you can find hundreds of free CE classes and professional resources.
