This article presents the results of a survey of dental auxiliaries conducted by the California Dental Association's Council on Education and Professional Relations. The survey found that a surprisingly high number of dental assistants (56 percent) and hygienists (42 percent) are considering whether to remain in the dental health care field, stated reasons for this include lack of paid benefits and little opportunity for career growth. The results also suggest, however, that if the perceived deficiencies in these areas were addressed, RDAs and RDHs might remain in the profession.
本文介绍了加利福尼亚牙科协会教育与职业关系委员会对牙科辅助人员进行的一项调查结果。调查发现，数量惊人的牙科助理（56%）和牙科保健员（42%）正在考虑是否继续留在牙科保健领域，他们表示这样做的原因包括缺乏带薪福利以及职业发展机会渺茫。然而，调查结果还表明，如果这些领域中被察觉到的不足之处得到解决，注册牙科助理（RDAs）和注册牙科保健员（RDHs）可能会继续从事该职业。
