NYDHA ADVOCACY

NYDHA'S 2025 ACTION AGENDA

Dental hygienists are highly educated, licensed health care professionals who complete rigorous, CODA-accredited programs designed to ensure clinical competence, patient safety, and evidence-based care. Replacing formal education with informal training places the public at risk and devalues the profession.

Priorities:

  • RDHs to administer block anesthesia (A.98/S.5727-NYDHA position)
  • Expansion of collaborative practice (A.2341/S.3157-NYDHA position) - passed Assembly and Senate!
