Submission to the government of the Northwest Territories on their proposed dental hygienist profession regulations
Release Date: 10/11/2024 Staff Reference: Sheila BurnsCLHIA members support the Government of the Northwest Territories in their proposed regulations of the dental hygienist profession. Allowing dental hygienists to practice independently, without the supervision of a dentist, and with an expanded scope of services, will allow more people to have access to dental care, particularly those residing in communities where there is no dentist.
