DENTAL HYGIENE TECHNOLOGY The Dental Hygiene Program includes a background of general studies, dental science, and clinical skills with which the student becomes a proficient provider of oral health care while working under the supervision of a dentist. The goals of the Dental Hygiene Technology program are: 1. Provide the didactic and clinical instruction that prepares students for the practice of dental hygiene. 2. Provide students with the skills to effectively interact with dental and other health care providers. 3. Encourage students to commit to lifelong learning. 4. Provide necessary skills that prepare students to become effective members of the dental health team. 5. Encourage students to assume active leadership roles in community and professional organizations. 6. Provide quality patient centered dental hygiene treatment. In addition to the special admission policies for Health Science programs, the Dental Hygiene Program utilizes the following factors in ranking and acceptance of applicants: 1. The number of required science courses completed. 2. The student’s grades for required science courses completed. 3. Work experience in the field of Dentistry. If work experience is to be considered, the applicant must bring to the interview a current resume with permission to contact employers. If the applicant is a Certified and/or Registered Dental Assistant, a copy of Certification and/or Registration must be brought to the interview. It is highly recommended that applicants without work experience in dentistry spend time observing a dental hygienist. During this observation, the applicant should gain a full understanding of the dental hygienist’s duties and responsibilities, as well as an understanding of OSHA regulations on bloodborne pathogens. All observation time should be completed prior to the interview. 4. Results of a personal interview. Interviews will be granted only to applicants who have met the minimum requirements for admission to the Health Science programs. Interviews will be conducted during the latter part of the spring semester. After the applicant’s files have been reviewed, the interviews are scheduled by telephone. It is the applicant’s responsibility to make certain that we have work and/or home telephone numbers that will be current for this time period. If your telephone number or numbers have changed from those provided on your Health Science application, you must send the changes in a timely manner to the DHT program director at 701 Briarcliff Avenue, Oak Ridge, TN 37830. All DHT courses must be taken in sequence. All required science courses must be taken in the semester as listed if applicant is admitted to the program OR any of the courses may be completed prior to the beginning of the program in August. Admission to the DHT program is required prior to enrolling in any DHT courses. All DHT courses are taught on the Oak Ridge Branch Campus. There are additional expenses for the Dental Hygiene Program for instruments, uniforms, Student Association dues (membership is mandatory), radiation badges, recommended vaccinations and other program-related expenses. Students are responsible for obtaining patients necessary to meet clinical requirements. The program in dental hygiene is accredited by the Commission on Dental Accreditation. The Commission is a specialized accrediting body recognized by the United States Department of Education. The Commission on Dental Accreditation can be contacted at (312) 440-4653 or at 211 East Chicago Avenue, Chicago, IL 60611. Career Preparation Programs
