Patient safety is NEVER negotiable.
While the MDHA supports expanding access to oral healthcare for all Marylanders, we cannot support legislation that puts patients at risk by deregulating dental scaling.

Why does this matter?

Dental scaling is an invasive clinical procedure. It requires the precision, tactile sensitivity, and deep medical knowledge that only a Registered Dental Hygienist (RDH) gains through years of accredited collegiate education and rigorous board exams.

The Risks of “On-The-Job” Training:
❌ Permanent tissue trauma
❌ Undetected, progressive periodontal disease
❌ Increased systemic health risks (Bacteremia)

Maryland patients deserve high-quality, professional care—not a “lower tier” of safety. We urge our legislators to protect the public and the integrity of our profession by rejecting these dangerous proposals.

How you can help:
1️⃣ Share this post to your story to spread awareness.
2️⃣ Tag your colleagues to keep the conversation going.
3️⃣ Save this post to stay informed on MDHA advocacy.

Let’s keep Maryland’s smiles safe. 🦀✨
