The purpose of this study was to obtain information on the availability of full-time teaching positions, job qualifications, and methods of recruitment in dental hygiene education. A questionnaire was mailed in 1990 to 198 dental hygiene program directors to acquire data on faculty positions and recruitment. The initial and follow-up mailings produced an 86% response rate. Data were analyzed using frequency distributions and chi-square analyses. Seventy-seven authorized openings for full-time faculty were reported: 60 were vacancies resulting from the departure of a faculty member. The minimum educational qualification was the baccalaureate degree for faculty positions in associate degree programs, and the master's degree or higher for teaching positions in baccalaureate degree programs. The type of experience required was primarily clinical, although teaching and research were preferred. The majority of positions available were at the entry levels of instructor and assistant professor. The recruitment method reported to be most successful in locating prospective faculty candidates was placement of a notice in a professional journal.
