Visit Your Dental Hygienist Campaign

Overview

Given the recent expansion of the Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP), CDHA is launching a “Visit Your Dental Hygienist” social media campaign highlighting dental hygienists' integral role in delivering preventive and impactful oral health care across Canada that helps keep Canadian communities healthy. Utilizing posts across all platforms with relevant key messages, powerful images, and consistent hashtags, we will increase awareness of dental hygienists' work and skill sets and emphasize the importance of oral health to overall health and well-being. This will encourage followers of all ages to take advantage of the CDCP by visiting an independent dental hygienist.
