California Dental Hygienists' Association

California Dental Hygienists' Association To improve the public's total health, the mission of the California Dental Hygienists' Association is to advance the art and science of dental hygiene.

What a wonderful time to be a hygienist! What a great time to become a member of the California Dental Hygienists’ Association (CDHA). CDHA has been persistent and effective in its efforts to promote the art and science of dental hygiene. Legislative successes, guided by our volunteer leadership, will have an effect on every practicing hygienist within the state of California. If you are in the hy

giene workforce either full‐time or part‐time, membership will benefit you personally. By you being a member of CDHA, it benefits CDHA by providing the numbers that speak to the lawmakers who are redefining the way hygienists’ practice. Come join the team that has been working for you throughout the years. Your membership is a contributing factor to the growth of your profession. Let’s celebrate the many
accomplishments and our successes:

Expanding our scope of practice to include root planning, curettage, local anesthesia, subgingivally placed antimicrobials and now the use of any new technology within our scope with the proper education and training. The placement of dental hygiene duties into state statutes thus protecting our scope of practice. Creating expansion of practice settings for the Registered Dental Hygienist in Alternative Practice. Our own Dental Hygiene Board of California has brought professional autonomy to dental hygienists, the first dental hygiene board
agency of its kind in the nation. Dues are more affordable than ever through the quarterly payment plan. Not sure what local component you can be a part of? Visit www.cdha.org to view the California State Map to assist you. Through your local component, you will have many
opportunities for employment, community health fairs, continuing education, mentorship, and leadership. We hope you will embrace the many benefits that CDHA has to offer from insurance programs, online Journals, informative websites, consumer discounts, to continuing
education courses. Visit our website www.cdha.org to see our upcoming events. Come grow with us and be amongst the many members of the California Dental Hygienists’
Association who continue to thrive within our profession.

📢 Registration is now open for CDHA Local Lobby Day!

Join CDHA on Friday, October 9 as we celebrate Dental Hygiene Month by meeting with local Senate and Assembly representatives in their district offices.

Why does it matter?
Because legislators need to know who we are, what we do, and how dental hygienists improve health outcomes in their communities.

This is your opportunity to advocate for the profession, educate legislators on the important role dental hygienists play in healthcare, and connect with fellow hygienists in your community.

Make your voice count — legislators need to hear from us!

Thinking about buying a home safe? 🔐

From protecting valuables and important documents to safely storing fi****ms and safeguarding items from fire or water damage, the right safe can give you serious peace of mind. But not all safes are created equal — burglary, fireproof, waterproof, gun, wall, and floor safes all serve different purposes, and lock types matter too.
Before you buy, learn which safe fits your needs and how to make sure your valuables are fully protected.
