ok what type of degree do you need to be a dental hygenist??? i heard associates but do you do anything afterwards?? also, how about in dental labaratory technology...how many years and whatts the difference between the 2??? ALSO, how much money do you make for both,,,??
Dental career...????
For a Dental Hygienist,I believe it takes two years, full time, for an AS, and then two additional years for BS...
Depending on where you live would determine whether or not you need a license/certification to be a Lab Tech...
Hygienists clean teeth, take xrays, do flouride treatments, sealants, and oral hygiene instruction. Some are even asked to take vital signs at each visit.
Lab techs process crowns, bridges, dentures, occlusal guards, etc.. and work outside of the mouth.
The pay scale for both of these jobs also depends on your location.............
Reply:I believe you need an associates degree but im not sure how long that might take, I know a Hygenist who makes $40/hr but as for the lab tech I dont know. Hygenist clean teeth and Lab techs make dentures and stuff.
