What is National Dental Hygienists Week™?
The month of April is Oral Health Month and an important part of this
celebration is National Dental Hygienists Week™, celebrated
annually April 4-10. Focusing on the importance of maintaining good oral
health practices and helping Canadians 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.
