Question: Can dental hygienists drill or fill teeth in the UK?
Answers:
No. They clean teeth, and they do some pretty complicated work in treating gum disease. But drilling and filling are work that is reserved for dentists.
NO
WHY NOT?
THEY'RE NOT LICENSED FoR THIS DENTAL WORK AND ANY HYGIENIST HERE IN THE USA WOULD GET JAIL TIME AND I'M SURE THE UK IS SIMILAR
not without being qualified as a dentist as well.
