NEW YORK, N.Y., USA: Crest Oral-B continues to recognize registered dental hygienists who go above and beyond the call of duty with the third year of the Pros in the Profession awards program. These awards acknowledge the pivotal role hygienists play in their patients’ lives in addition to their unwavering personal commitment to promoting good oral health.

“We have seen extraordinary entries over the past several years, which is why we must continue to honor those hygienists whose passion shine through in their everyday work,” said John Scarchilli, with scientific communications for P&G Oral Care. “These individuals dedicate countless hours to furthering the oral health cause, so we are pleased to be able to applaud them publicly.”

In 2014, Crest Oral-B will reward four exceptional dental hygienists who consistently display dedication to their patients and their craft. Winners receive an all-expense paid trip to visit the Procter & Gamble German Innovation Center at Kronberg, Germany; $1,000; a recognition plaque; recognition in dental periodicals and announcements on the Crest Oral-B for Dental Professionals Facebook page and on the www.dentalcare.com consumer website.

From now until March 2014, nominations can be submitted via a nomination tab on the Crest Oral-B for Dental Professionals Facebook page. For the first time in the program, hygienists may nominate themselves. Nominations can also be submitted by dentists, fellow hygienists, dental assistants, professional colleagues and academic colleagues Additionally, Crest Oral-B will be present at dental conventions throughout the year, where applications can be submitted onsite.

To be considered for the program, nominees must meet the following criteria: RDH with two or more years of clinical/professional experience after graduation from dental hygiene school; participation in community service; examples of work that goes above and beyond the call of duty.

“It is an honor, as a previous recipient of the award, that Crest Oral-B has decided to continue rewarding those in our profession,” said Ann Benson Ross. “I’ve learned an immense amount from the experience and have been afforded so many new opportunities, so I encourage all to take part, as I know so many of us out there deserve the honor.”
