Those front desk girls better bundle up because I am PUMPING up the A/C with all this PPE and if they touch the thermostat all hell will be released #RDHproblems

[Cheeky Hygienists @RDHProblems]

So... anyone else considering a career change after all this? #RDHproblems

Real talk for a minute: everyone take a minute to view and sign this petition and have this archaic law removed! RDH loses license for treating spouse.

When I tell patients they have beautiful thick enamel, or nice pink and firm gums, I wonder if they have any idea just how high those compliments are

Hygienists who’ve had to take over the needy patients of a retiring long-time hygienist deserve a special kind award

It takes everything I’ve got not to tweeze those long stray hairs on your face with my cotton pliers

That awkward moment when prophy paste flies into the patients beard and you try to clean it off but end up digging it deeper into the beard and pretend nothing happened

No one:

Dental hygienist: What were you eating that was blue?

[Cheeky Hygienists @RDHProblems]

Could you please turn your head slightly away from me, close your mouth halfway, shift your lower jaw towards me, and maybe get these damn wisdom teeth extracted sometime?

[Cheeky Hygienists @RDHProblems]

I’ll be as gentle as I can be, but my priority is to do my job, not give you a relaxation gum massage.

Most requested polish flavours: margarita, rum and coke, pina colada, whiskey, and sangria. Apparently alcoholics hate mint. #RDH #dentalhygienist #dentalhygiene

I’m BACK! Happy to say I have managed to avoid carpal tunnel and the Piezo. #5yearslater

[Cheeky Hygienists @RDHProblems]

When your patient acts like they hate you but continue to book with you every time. #WTF

The experience of DH school is hard to explain, but they were simultaneously the best and worst years of my life. Congrats class of 2014!

I just want a lab coat that doesn't make me look like a fugly old man, is that too much to ask?

[Cheeky Hygienists @RDHProblems]

At the end of the day, it's always the awesome moments with my favourite patients that I remember.

Summer's coming! Time for sticky gloves and suffocating under my mask.

No matter what the traffic, or how the weather, I know EXACTLY who will be on time and who will be late.
