A shortage of dental hygienists in the United States is being exacerbated by a lack of quality workplaces, according to a report. Elysse Morris, a dental hygienist in Virginia, has stayed at her current office for four years due to good equipment, benefits, and respect from her employer. Such offices are referred to as 'unicorn' offices in the industry. The scarcity of these workplaces contributes to the overall shortage of dental hygienists.
