Founded in 1923, the primary goal of the American Dental Hygienists鈥� Association (ADHA庐) was to develop a better way for dental hygienists to communicate and cooperate. Today, the ADHA is the largest national organization representing the professional interests of the more than 220,000 registered dental hygienists (RDHs) in the United States. Dental hygienists are preventive oral health professionals, licensed in dental hygiene, who provide educational, clinical and therapeutic services that support total health through the promotion of optimal oral health. Leading the way as a unified force, the ADHA continues to help move the careers of dental hygienists and the profession overall forward.

The Journal of Dental Hygiene (JDH), published bi-monthly, is ADHA鈥檚 scientific journal and flagship publication.
