They\u2019re the first to get you comfortable and ready before <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thenudental.com\/meet-the-dentist.html\">your dentist<\/a> comes to see you. But did you know there\u2019s much more to them than simply checking your smile? Since Dental Hygienist Week is coming up in just a few days, it\u2019s the perfect time to learn four reasons to appreciate them and all their hard work!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">#1: They Provide A Familiar Face<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Your dental hygienist is the first to say hello when you arrive at the patient\u2019s chair. Not only will they check your oral condition, but they\u2019ll take the time to get to know you and help you feel comfortable during your appointment. Even if you only visit twice a year, they\u2019ll be happy to see you and you\u2019ll have a familiar face you can count on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">#2: They\u2019re Your First Line of Defense<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>While they can provide dental cleanings and fluoride treatments to help your smile, they\u2019re also the first to detect dental issues, if any. Afterwards, they can inform your dentist of any symptoms so they can know what to expect. This means your dental hygienist also serves as a second pair of eyes when monitoring your dental health.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">#3: They Are Always Learning<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Even after graduating hygiene school\u2014which is highly competitive\u2014your hygienist most definitely continues to seek further training. A majority of them complete more than 20 hours of continuing education every year to stay on top of the latest advances in dentistry. This is also to improve their expertise to deliver the best quality care for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">#4: They\u2019re Passionate About their Work<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Dental hygienists are some of the nicest people you\u2019ll meet, and they really care about the work they do. They want to ensure you have a beautiful smile you can be proud of, and they\u2019ll do a thorough job so you can get it!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, the next time you visit the dental office, be sure to show your appreciation to your hygienist when they say hello. As always, they\u2019ll be happy to see you, and look forward to helping you achieve great dental health.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About the Practice<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>At Nu Dental Eatontown, we are proud to deliver outstanding, modern, and compassionate dental care.
