Dental hygienists in the United States: results of an ADA survey.
The Survey Center of the American Dental Association conducts an annual survey of approximately 5 percent of all private practitioners in the United States. This survey is sent to a randomly selected group of dentists in private practice, including general practitioners and specialists and ADA members and nonmembers. It attempts to collect information on various practice characteristics such as work schedules, patient visits, non-dentist staff employment, expenses and wages. Using information from the 1991 to 1995 Survey of Dental Practice reports, this article examines the employment of dental hygienists.
