About our DH program:

The New York City College of Technology Dental Hygiene program has been in existence since 1947. This program has a strong reputation in the Metropolitan area for graduating well educated and highly skilled entry level dental hygiene professionals.

This program is accredited by the Commission on Dental Accreditation and graduates will be awarded an Associate in Applied Science degree in Dental Hygiene. Upon completion of this degree, the Dental Hygiene graduates are eligible to take the licensing examination required to obtain a license to be employed as a Dental Hygienist.

This is our program’s website: Dental Hygiene at City Tech 

There are very informative and helpful videos about our program, the career of dental hygiene, and our admission process and requirements. They were created by City Tech’s Prof. Josh A. Kapusinski (COMD) and starring our students, faculty, and staff. Please view the videos here: DH Program Information
