Can I go to Japan, as a dental hygienist, with a dental team? And if so how do I go about doing so? Thanks!?

Question:

Answer:

Basically, your license does not work in Japan. You have to get dental hygienist license in Japan.

But now, we have had the earthquake. Japanese government announced that foreign doctors would be allowed to work in disaster hit areas without Japanese licenses.

But I'm not sure if dental hygienists are included in "doctor" category. And they are not telling how foreign doctors actually should come to Japan. I think you have to ask local doctor organization or someone.
