Remote Supervision Dental Hygiene Toolkit
Expanding the Oral Health Workforce to Reach Patients Where They Are
This toolkit walks dental providers through everything they need to launch a remote supervision dental hygiene (RSDH) program in Virginia, from understanding state law and supervision requirements to building workflows, selecting equipment, and applying the right billing codes. Grounded in real settings, including schools, Head Start locations, long-term care facilities, and outpatient clinics, it offers setting-specific best practices and quality improvement tools to help programs succeed and sustain over time. Use it as your starting point for meeting patients where they live, work, and learn — and making preventive oral health care more equitable across the Commonwealth.
