English term or phrase: dentistry: hygienist
Hello, I have a question for a term I cannot translate into French. Can someone please help me.
The word belongs to a dentistry study.
The French translation must include the follozing English definition, but I cannot find it in French: 'whomever cleans the patients teeth or basically does the most for the patient with the exception of the actual dentist'.
Here is the sentence with the word. Thanks a lot.
