We’re excited to welcome our sponsors & exhibitors to the 2026 SCDHA Annual Symposium.
This event wouldn’t be possible without the support of our industry partners, and we truly value the relationships that help bring high-quality education to South Carolina dental hygienists. Being a Sponsor at our Symposium is more than a booth—it’s an opportunity to connect with engaged, curious professionals who care deeply about patient care and the future of dental hygiene.
