What is a RDH?  

RDH stands for Registered Dental Hygienist. A dental hygienist is a licensed health care professional who works with dentists to help patients maintain good oral health and dental hygiene.  A dental hygienist helps to protect patients’ teeth and gums by performing dental cleanings, which are important to the overall health of a patient.  They also perform dental x-rays, apply sealants and fluoride treatments, and assist dentists during advanced procedures.

What are preventive dental services? 

Preventive dental services refer to treatments that are designed to protect your teeth and gums from disease-causing bacteria as well as services that help stop issues before they start.  Preventive dental services include: 

• Dental exams 
• Dental x-rays 
• Teeth cleanings 
• Sealants 
• Fluoride treatments 

What is a dental sealant? 

Dental sealants are thin coatings that are painted on the chewing surfaces of the back teeth, (molars) that help prevent cavities, (tooth decay), for many years.  This process can be applied to a patient’s teeth by a dentist or dental hygienist. 

What is a fluoride treatment or varnish? 

Fluoride is a mineral that can strengthen the outer coating on teeth which is referred to as tooth enamel.  A fluoride treatment, or varnish, is a concentrated form of fluoride that is painted onto the top and sides of a patient’s teeth by a dentist or dental hygienist.
