"Did you know?
Dental Hygienists in Alberta are not required to work under the supervision of a dentist. They are a part of the Health Professions Act and are held to a high standard as primary care providers. As such, there are some who have chosen to work independently of a traditional dental office. Dental hygiene practice owners work towards increasing access to care in the community and their focus is on prevention of oral disease and health promotion.
Take a look at the video released on Global that outlines and describes how an Independent Registered Dental Hygienist may work in the community. There are now over 70 Independent Dental Hygiene practices in Alberta. *Please note that Dental Hygienists are not permitted to “hire dentists to work for them”. This may be the case in Ontario but not in Alberta.
See if choosing an Independent Dental Hygienist might be a good option for you!
