Myself, I have a bachelor of science degree, but many opt for a two year associates degree. The bachelor's will, in the end, provide you many advantages in the marketplace. Dental assisting will get you working faster, but your earning power is far less. Depending on your area of the country, a dental hygienist will make from $40,000 to $100,000+ per year. Many have the option of working part-time and still earning $50,000+ pe year. Dental hygienist specialize in the preventative care of the teeth. We assist the dentist by evaluating identifying decay, structure changes in the tooth from visit to visit, recording variations in your gums and mouth, and many times develop the treatment plans and assist the patient in evaluating the options. I hope this helps, Thanks, Melissa If you enjoy the dental profession and the working with people, then becoming a dental hygienist is the most cost effective vs. reward earned available.
