Dental Association of P.E.I., has reportedly said there is a shortage of dental hygienists and dental assistants and the healthcare sector is stymied on how to meet this challenge within Canada.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe only way is to train a great many more and as it can&rsquo;t be done very quickly, the problem will be here for several years. The average age is also increasing so more are also retiring so no fast fix is going to occur,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><b>If you are a candidate looking for a Canada job, or an employer looking to recruit foreign talent from abroad, immigration.ca can help.
