Hygiene School are in heavy demand… now and into the future!
According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, employment opportunities in the field of dental hygiene are projected to grow by 25% between 2012 and 2022. This growth rate is significantly faster than the average for all other occupations. As a result, careers related to dental hygiene education and training—such as those offered in hygiene schools—are expected to be among the fastest-growing job sectors during this period. This trend reflects a rising demand for preventive dental care and an increased awareness of oral health.
What is driving this growth?
Population Growth: A rising population naturally increases the demand for dental and hygiene services across all age groups.
Better Oral Health Retention: More middle-aged and older adults are keeping their natural teeth longer, requiring ongoing hygiene care to maintain oral health.
Focus on Preventive Care: There’s a growing emphasis on early and regular dental hygiene for children and young adults, boosting long-term demand.
Increased Workload for Dentists: As dental procedures become more advanced, dentists are delegating routine tasks to hygiene professionals and assistants.
Team-Based Approach: Modern dental practices function like well-coordinated systems—similar to casinos—where each team member plays a specialized role to ensure smooth operations and high-quality care.
