Did you know…? According to the ADA, dental assistant and hygienist vacancies have resulted in a 10% drop in dental practice capacity nationally. The ADA's Health Policy Institute also estimates that 1/3 of dental assistants and hygienists plan to retire within the next 5 years.

In this recording, you’ll get insights into how to run a hygiene department efficiently and profitably while providing comprehensive care.
