I was wondering what types of writing is involved in the dental hygiene field. Do you write any letters for patients or co-workers? What writing do you do daily?

Hi Amalia, Dental hygienists in clinical practice chart but typically do not do a lot of writing in their daily work. Hygienists who go into academia, on the other hand, would do a lot of writing for their classes and to fulfill many college's requirement that they publish.
