Classes you need to take to become a dental hygienist An associates degree in dental hygiene, which takes two years, is required to start practice. High school students should focus on core courses, including biology, chemistry, and math.
In California, only an associate degree is required to become a hygienist. I have a bachelor's degree but I have no idea if any of my employers preferred it because I never asked. I've been working full-time for the past 16 years as a dental hygienist with only an associates degree in dental hygiene. In clinical practice hygienists are paid the same rate with or without a bachelors.
