Hygienist here looking to start a conversation on the recent resolutions passed by the ADA. We cannot let this happen! I'm glad the ADHA spoke up. Interested to hear from others (dentists included!) what they think about the initial news and the response. Here is the ADHA open letter: https://www.adha.org/newsroom/open-letter-objecting-ada-resolutions-calls-for-collaboration/

What are some quick easy tweaks you’ve found to improve your bottom line?

I'm a hygienist in Pennsylvania considering a move and want to know what things to look for in a job offer. I've only ever worked at the current office I am at (private practice, 4 years employed) so I really have no idea where to start. Any help is appreciated!

I am new grad Hygienist and have made connections with some hygiene recruiters. It has been a mixed bag of experiences but each one claims their office or company is the best. What should I be asking them so I don't end up in a situation I regret?

Do any of you have unlimited PTO at your jobs? Do you like it or would you rather have a set amount of days? I like my set amount of days because then I’ll make sure I use them all.

Finally an empty nester with kids in college. I have been considering wrapping up my career doing some travel work now that I have a bit of freedom. What should I consider before making this jump purely based on the attractive compensation?
