JOIN ADHA

Membership

Join a nationwide network of dental hygienists who share your passion for all things oral health. This is your community, and these are the friendships that will stay with you throughout your career. As a dental hygienist, you know that helping your patients achieve and maintain a healthy smile is what true happiness is all about. Your ADHA membership is designed to help make that possible throughout your career, from student to established dental hygienist. Experience the incredible value of the ONLY national association dedicated to our profession.
The South Carolina Dental Hygienists’ Association (SCDHA) is a volunteer organization made up of registered dental hygienists, and we are a constituent of the American Dental Hygienists’ Association (ADHA).
By becoming a member of the American Dental Hygienists’ Association, you also become a member of SCDHA and your local “component” of SCDHA.
