Develop the knowledge, skills, and judgement needed to become a self-regulated health professional. A large part of your training will include hands-on clinical practice. Students work with clients from the community on-site in Canadore’s Dental Hygiene Clinic, where they offer free dental hygiene services as they put their clinical theory into practice. Graduates are in high demand, finding employment in dental offices, hospitals, and research institutes. This program is accredited by the Commission on Dental Accreditation of Canada.

What You’ll Learn

  • Practise in a professional and competent manner within the defined scope of practice and consistent with current regulations and standards of practice.
  • Evaluate clients’ oral health status using determinants of health and risk analysis to identify needs, justify treatment decisions and provide appropriate referrals to other health care professionals as required.
  • Design, implement and evaluate a range of primary, interceptive, therapeutic, preventative, and on-going oral health care services to meet the unique needs of clients.
  • Analyze oral health issues in need of advocacy, identify networks and promote actions that will support change and facilitate access to care.
  • Identify, select, implement and evaluate quality assurance standards and protocols which contribute to a safe and effective working environment.
  • Establish and maintain professional and interprofessional relationships which contribute to client care safety and positive health care outcomes.
  • Facilitate the development of specific oral health attitudes, knowledge, skills, and behaviours in clients by selecting and utilizing principles of teaching and learning.
  • Develop and present a model for a dental hygiene practice that addresses relevant business principles, current legislation and standards of practice.

The teachers are very knowledgable in the trade takes about real issues are they came across and how they solve them. they truly cared about their students and them succeeding in the program. The hands on shop projects, one of my favourite parts because you get to take what you learned and physically do it in class And the walk-through step-by-step to make sure you understand the procedures before moving onto a next topic.

During my time as a student I have been able to develop the way I learn and interact with others to a degree that has also helped me to mature into a better person. I have come to believe that this maturity will help me to develop into a better thinker as well, one that has the patience to listen and take consideration of what others have to say. I consider the act of learning a two way avenue that has to be taken seriously. It is one that involves the teacher, and the protégé. It has been, and will continue to be, my absolute goal as a student to become a diligent protégé and acquire all of learning my teachers have set in front of me. The way each of them have helped me to think about how my actions, and the way I choose to study my lessons and develop as a student, has made a tremendous impact on my life. This impact is one that I will carry into the future as I myself advance in my professional studies
