As a practicing member of the dental health team, the dental hygienist acts as an
educator and motivator in maintenance of oral health and prevention of dental disease.
医务人员 are in demand in general dental practices, as well as in specialty practices
such as periodontics or pediatric dentistry. 医务人员 may also be employed to provide
dental hygiene services for patients in hospitals, nursing homes, and public health
诊所. Dental hygienists remove soft and hard deposits from teeth, teach patients
how to practice good oral hygiene, and provide other preventive dental care. 医务人员
examine patients’ teeth and gums, recording the presence of diseases or abnormalities.
They remove tartar, stains, and plaque from teeth; perform root planing as a periodontal
therapy; take and develop dental x-rays; and apply cavity-preventive agents such as
fluorides and pit and fissure sealants. In some states, hygienists administer anesthetics;
place and carve filling materials, temporary fillings, and periodontal dressings;
remove sutures; and smooth and polish metal restorations. Although hygienists may
not diagnose diseases, they can prepare clinical and laboratory diagnostic tests for
the dentist to interpret. 医务人员 sometimes work chairside with the dentist during
治疗.
