One of the major diseases we help patients to manage is dental caries (tooth decay). As a student, you will learn all about the formation of enamel. As a clinician, you will need to know all the ways in which dental caries can be managed to help your patients combat the disease. 
Understand the process of caries and know what creates an increased risk for our patients. Discover and learn what the best solutions are for each patient we treat. As Oral Health Therapists, it is essential for dental hygienists to have a comprehensive understanding of the risk, the process, and the treatment options available for our patients.
