Elizabeth’s Answer

More than likely you can go right into this field. A lot of junior colleges (aka community colleges) offer this program and you can graduate with your Associates degree after about 2 years and begin applying for jobs in dental hygiene.


Look at the course listings and majors at your area community college as a way to get started and hopefully you will be able to move forward from there!

Luke’s Answer

To become a dental hygienist, you typically need an associate's degree, which can be earned in 2 years. This is a good option if you're looking for a shorter college program in the medical field.
