Dental Hygiene
The Dental Hygiene program at Missouri College is designed to provide students with a comprehensive and interdisciplinary plan of studies, through applied theory and practical applications, to become entry-level dental hygienists qualified for employment in clinical practice and alternative career settings. Students receive training in general education, biomedical sciences, dental sciences and dental hygiene sciences. The core curriculum is structured to include a lecture component, a laboratory component, and a clinical component. The final 45 weeks of the curriculum includes supervised experiences in a clinical environment which requires competencies, logs, and evaluations completed by the student. At the conclusion of the program, graduates who have diligently attended class and completed their clinical duties should have the skills to seek entry-level employment as dental hygienists. |
