About Lorena Milanes
Expertise
I can answer questions regarding Panama, its people, culture, places to visit, places to watch out for, hotels to stay, how much your taxi fare should be... specific information on getting around on a safe manner.

Experience
I was born and raised in Panama, educated in American schools. Since I enjoy all related to Panama history, I try to keep myself updated on local happenings in the subject. I also enjoy traveling and the internet seems a wonderful tool to use, specially when you are your own guide (which I usually am)- so I am just willing to give some of the help I have received back.

Panama - Dental Hygienists


Expert: Lorena Milanes - 2/23/2008

Question
Wld it be possible for a very experienced dental hygienist to get employment in
Panama?  She has excel. refs.  What wld pay scale be like or where wld she began
to look?
Thanks for your help.

Answer
Hi Aneh,
Before I answered your question, I called a good friend of mine who is a dentist.
My friend is works as a professor at the University of Panama, works in both, the public and private sector.
Here the career of Dental Hygienist dissapeared from the University and therefore from the working field.
Here there are Dental Assistants and Dentists both do the hygienist´s job.
Dental assistants begin with approximtely 400.00 usd monthly salary at government institutions and about the same for the private sector.

I hope this helps.

Good luck,

Lorena
