University Chancellor’s Office (UKÄ) remains positive for an extension of the dental hygienist training. An analysis shows that the benefits outweigh.
An extension would mean that the training is increased from the current 120 credits to 180. The primary motive is that the dental hygienist profession is undergoing changes. A longer training would better meet the requirements. UKÄ’s analysis of a prolonged dental hygienist training has been done on behalf of the government.
