Techniques d'hygiène dentaire (111.B0) est un DEC technique de trois ans au cégep Édouard-Montpetit, avec des admissions à l'automne et, exclusivement dans cet établissement, à l'hiver. Le programme prépare à la profession d'hygiéniste dentaire, appelée à prévenir, dépister et traiter les problèmes buccodentaires de façon autonome ou en collaboration avec des dentistes et d'autres personnes professionnelles de la santé. La formation combine cours théoriques, laboratoires et stages cliniques, notamment à la Clinique d'hygiène dentaire du cégep, ouverte à la population, où les personnes étudiantes pratiquent le détartrage, le dépistage, l'application de scellants et d'agents désensibilisants ainsi que l'éducation à la santé buccodentaire. Une preuve de vaccination à jour est exigée avant le début des stages. Le programme mène, à l'obtention du DEC, à l'admissibilité à l'Ordre des hygiénistes dentaires du Québec. Il convient à une personne qui aime travailler auprès du public, qui fait preuve d'empathie et de dextérité manuelle, et qui souhaite exercer en clinique dentaire, en pratique indépendante ou au sein d'un réseau de la santé.
Requirements
Minimum GPA:65.00 / %
Admission Requirements: Admission is based on Cégep Édouard-Montpetit's general college requirement: a Diplôme d'études secondaires (DES), or a Diplôme d'études professionnelles (DEP) completed with any missing 4th- or 5th-secondary courses, or a Certificat d'équivalence d'études secondaires (CEES). The programme additionally requires Science and Technology STE or SE 4th-secondary. Secondary 5 applicants must show a general average of at least 65%, with one required course allowed to fall between 50% and 60%. Applicants scoring below 65% on the Secondary 5 French writing component together with a secondary average under 75% must take a remedial French course. The college notes this programme is offered in both Fall and Winter, which it describes as unique to Édouard-Montpetit. Students must provide proof of basic vaccination by the start of their studies, though this may be completed during first year if needed. Registration and related fees run about CAD 273 per session for a full-time student. No specialised instruments need to be purchased, as the college supplies the required equipment; students should still budget roughly CAD 1,000 over the three-year programme for other materials.
