National Network of Healthcare Hygienists
Preparing Registered Dental Hygienists for multidisciplinary oral-systemic education, collaboration, and integration
NNHH is a 501c (3) professional support organization for Registered Dental Hygienists who have a mindset of oral-systemic wellness over dental health alone.
We offer resources and certificate programs in areas of medicine to support RDHs working in integrated settings, educating multidisciplinary teams and patients, developing oral-systemic prevention & treatment programs, and collaborating with medical providers.

Oral Systemic Educator Certificate Program Achieves Accreditation Through ANAB
A first in all of dentistry for a certificate program to meet both AGD PACE and ANSI National Accreditation Board (ANAB) standards. The Oral Systemic Educator program provides Registered Dental Hygienists with more comprehensive education than traditional dental CE offers, and is far more focused and affordable than a university degree. Hospitals and healthcare systems expect accreditation as a mark of quality and excellence, so NNHH is addressing an educational workforce gap, while creating new career opportunities for RDHs.
