College of Southern Nevada

Sure, I can assist you with information on the Dental Hygiene program at the College of Southern Nevada.

The Dental Hygiene program at the College of Southern Nevada is designed to prepare students for a career as a dental hygienist. The program is accredited by the Commission on Dental Accreditation (CODA) and is a two-year program that leads to an Associate of Applied Science degree.

The program is a combination of classroom instruction, laboratory work, and clinical experiences. Students will learn about oral health, anatomy and physiology, dental radiography, pharmacology, and dental hygiene procedures. They will also gain hands-on experience in the dental clinic under the supervision of licensed dental hygienists and dentists.

Admission to the Dental Hygiene program is competitive, and students must meet certain requirements to be considered. These include completion of prerequisite courses in areas such as biology, chemistry, and English, as well as the submission of an application and supporting documentation.

After completing the program, graduates will be eligible to take the National Board Dental Hygiene Examination and the Clinical Board Examination to become licensed dental hygienists.
