How hard is the dental hygiene program??

Answers: As a registered dental hygienist I can tell you that the program is rigorous. It can be difficult to get into a program, so it would be best to have excellent grades if you are in high school or some of your prerequisites taken already with excellent grades prior to applying for the program. The school I graduate from has 22 openings and typically about 200 applicants. Many of the students work or have families or significant others and still do it, but it is certainly easier if you aren't trying to work alot at the same time. My program was 5 days a week and this is pretty typical. In the US south there are programs that you don't need formal training which is called preceptorship and involves on the job training. Honestly, all of the Dr's I have worked with have been far too busy to have trained me, so I don't know if I would recommend that route. You can email me if you have any other questions, it is a great career choice!

It depends on how smart you are and how much work you put into your pre-requisities. It also depends on where you live. It is by no means a walk in the park.

If you want an easy program move to alabama.. you don't need to go to school to be a hygentist, it's on the job training.

If you're looking for an easy job in the healthcare field become a pharmacy technician.
