Elevating Dental Care: Integrating Public Health Dental Hygienists at Health Centers

In this episode, Dr. Lisa Kearney from Erie Family Health Centers joins us to address the widespread shortage of dentists, dental hygienists, and dental assistants. We dive into the essence of high quality dental care by exploring the importance of training Dental Assistants within a community health center. We also tackle challenges and share best practices of on-the-job training. Discover the essential role of Public Health Dental Hygienists (PHDHs) and learn how they're seamlessly integrated into workflows. We'll also uncover whether patients are really receptive to care from PHDHs, and share some uplifting and inspirational stories from the field.
