National Dental Hygiene Month, which comes around each October, is a collaboration between the American Dental Hygienists’ Association and Colgate.
October is here so it’s time to recognize all the great dental hygienists and the wonderful things they do every day to help dental patients and dental practices.
October is a time to celebrate the work dental hygienists do and to promote the importance of oral health access for all.

All month long the ADHA is sharing informative digital content, hosting an amazing live event in Stamford, CT, posting trivia and giving away prizes from ADHA and goodies from partners and National Dental Hygiene Month sponsor Colgate® Oral Pharmaceuticals Inc.
