We are a team of passionate Oral Health Therapists who believe we can make a difference within our communities and enter expanded boundaries for the good of the profession.
We hope to work alongside Oral Health Therapists to enhance and excel in yet-to-be ventured areas.
Representation
We are pleased to announce that the International Oral Health Association (IOHA) has recently been formed by these 5 countries: Australia, Indonesia, Malaysia, New Zealand and Singapore. The British Oral Health Association has also expressed its interest in this partnership.
As a budding Association, we strive to improve and promote Oral Health Therapy throughout the region.
Continual Education
The AOHT seeks to ensure continuous professional development remains a priority amongst our activities.
We organize oral health conferences/events for Oral Health Therapists and Dentists both locally and internationally, relevant to the current trends within the dental fraternity.
Community Outreach
"We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give." -Winston Churchill
The Association is involved in various community outreach programmes to nursing homes and day-care centres. We educate caregivers, families of the elderly and the senior citizens themselves on how they can improvise oral hygiene care for the elderly. Our members also volunteer themselves to do Dental Screenings and simple scaling and polishing for those in the nursing homes.
Membership Schemes
We are actively recruiting members to make the
AOHT a more represented and stronger voice within the dental fraternity.
We've heard your responses for an Association to represent OHTs. We look forward to your continuous support toward the Association.
