To improve the public's total health, the mission of the Minnesota Dental Hygienists' Association is to advance the art and science of dental hygiene by increasing the awareness of and ensuring access to quality oral health care, promoting the highest standard of dental hygiene education, licensure and practice, and representing and promoting the interests of dental hygiene.
Because ADHA and MNDHA are the national and state organizations which represent you as a dental hygienist - they are the organizations to which you can turn for the most reliable, supportive, hygiene-focused, information and connections. No other organization focuses on the interests of dental hygienists in quite the same way. Your membership provides you with:
- Access magazine - the official publication of ADHA
- Journal of Dental Hygiene - the dental hygiene research publication
- Discounts on some goods and services
- Opportunities for networking with other dental hygienists
- Leadership support and development
- Career support
- Continuing education that is focused on your needs as a dental hygienist
- Advocacy on behalf of your interests as a dental hygiene professional
- Advocacy on behalf of public health especially as it relates to the role of dental hygienists
- National, state and local connections
- Connections to volunteer opportunities / public health initiatives (Special Olympics - Health Education and Athlete Screenings, Head Start Screenings, Seal-A-Smile clinics, Give Kids a Smile projects, Mission of Mercy, and many others)
- Opportunities to participate in the growth and development of your chosen profession.
