Dental Hygienist (or its Orthodontics Department equivalent, Orthodontic Technician) is the middle level in the Equestria Dental Clinic hierarchy, between Doctor/Dentist and Dental/Orthodontic Nurse, and took much longer to finally show up than the other two, mainly because I took so long to figure out the unique uniform, so that it would stand out from the other two while also being stylistically in line. Glad I finally figured it out last year, it turned out really well! I think this “laborer” aesthetic works wonderfully with the bandana over the mane and long tie-on apron. Also the use of silver (dentist tool symbolism) that doesn’t clash with the other colors and a dress that’s shape-wise halfway between the nurse and doctor ones!
