September is a time to celebrate the importance of oral health and the professionals who help maintain it. At the forefront of this effort are dental hygienists, whose work is essential in keeping our smiles bright and healthy. Through regular cleanings and preventive care, hygienists play a crucial role in supporting patients’ dental and overall health. As we enter National Hygienist Month, it’s important to recognize their efforts in educating patients and promoting good oral hygiene practices.

National Hygienist Month, observed in September, highlights the indispensable contributions of dental hygienists to the dental field. These professionals work side by side with dentists to ensure that patients receive comprehensive oral care. By promoting regular check-ups and proper brushing and flossing techniques, hygienists help prevent dental problems before they escalate. Their work also extends beyond dental health, as they contribute to the prevention of more serious health issues such as heart disease and diabetes, both of which can be linked to poor oral hygiene. This month is a great opportunity to show appreciation for the dedication and care dental hygienists bring to the field of healthcare.
