As a dental hygienist, you can support your patient's nutritional needs by providing them with education and supporting their efforts to make meaningful changes in their lives. Improving our patients' food choices and habits will go beyond meeting the oral health needs of our patients. It will strengthen the ability of our patients to defend against chronic diseases and lower the risk of systemic deficiencies.
