Directe toegankelijkheid van de mondhygiënist 1. Standpunten van landelijke organisaties [Direct access to the dental hygienist 1. Opinions of relevant national organizations]
article
The opinions of professional dental organisations, the government (Ministry of Health), patient organizations and the medical assurance companies are collected on the question whether patients could visit the dental hygienist without being seen by a dentist first. The general opinion is that this could be possible for those treatments for which the dental hygienist are fully qualified. However, the professional organizations of the dentists claim that the dentist should always be responsible for the patient register and thereby the first responsible for the dental health of the patients. Pilot projects are advised to study how the various dental workers can most efficiently work together.
