No to compromising my dental health by allowing DA2 to perform scaling. RDH's do so much more than scaling. They're trained in performing extensive oral exams and recognizing when there may be other problems going on in the mouth. To allow DA's to perform scaling would mean that some potential life-threatening problems may not be detected by a RDH. I say NO to allowing unqualified DA2's to compromising my health.
