Learning objectives - After attending this session, hygienists will:

• Debunk common myths and misconceptions about working for Dental Support Organizations (DSOs).
• Understand the range of support and resources available to hygienists within employee-owned DSOs.
• Recognize the diversity of DSO models and why a one-size-fits-all approach does not apply to dental practices.
• Gain insights from firsthand experiences on career growth opportunities, including transitioning from clinical to support roles.

Dental Support Organizations (DSOs) are growing fast, but not all operate the same. Don’t let “corporate dentistry” misconceptions hold you back. Join practicing hygienists from employee-owned Mortenson Dental Partners for a panel discussion about real-life experiences in DSOs. Learn about diverse career opportunities—from advancing clinical skills to transitioning into support roles—and discover how you can grow your career in this evolving dental landscape.

*Any hygienist who attends will receive a HuFriedy Scaler*
