Bachelor of Oral Health (Therapy/Hygiene)

Career opportunities

Government analysts predict that the demand for dentists, dental therapists and dental hygienists will continue to increase in Australia. 

CSU’s Bachelor of Oral Health (Therapy/Hygiene) was developed in close cooperation with the Australian Dental Council, the Australian Dental Association (ADA), local dentists, oral health practitioners and senior consultants to ensure students would graduate with the skills and knowledge required by employers and the community.

Oral health therapy provides rewarding and diverse career paths. It is a rapidly developing health profession concerned with caring for people of all ages. Once you become registered, your job prospects are excellent. Most final year dental hygiene and dental therapy students will know if they have a graduate position by December of their final year.

You could follow a career in any of the following:

  • general dentistry practice
  • specialty dentistry practice
  • public sector dental health
  • Australian defence forces (Army, Navy or Air Force)
  • hospital dental clinics
  • international healthcare
  • education
  • research industry.
