Oral Health Therapist
An Oral Health Therapist (OHT) is qualified and trained in both:
-
Dental Hygiene - preventative care for all ages
-
Dental Therapy - restorative dental treatments for all ages​
​
An Oral Health Therapist plays an important role in children's dentistry, focusing on preventative care, early diagnosis, treatment of oral health issues, and education in hygiene instruction and dietary advice.
​
While Oral Health Therapists are a perfect choice for routine dental cleans, periodontal cleans, whitening, and restorative treatment, an Oral Health Therapist is ideal for children's dentistry! Oral Health Therapists have child-focused training and are trained in behavioural techniques to manage anxious children.
