A Win-Win Way to Give this Holiday Season

CDHA and HuFriedyGroup continue to fund our Indigenous Student Bursary program thanks to purchases of limited-edition HuFriedy EverEdge 204S sickle scalers with orange signature grips . If you buy one for yourself, not only will you have an excellent instrument to support the oral health of your clients, but you will also help graduating Indigenous dental hygiene students launch their careers. The scaler is available at the 2023 cost of $87 plus tax with free shipping. The program will be ending soon, so take advantage of this opportunity before it’s too late!
