Ch 2: Human Needs

Why do dental hygienists need to understand this theory?
- This theory explains that need fulfillment dominates human activity, and behavior is organized in
relation to unsatisfied needs
- When someone comes into your office searching for only whitening, you must treat their
immediate issues that could cause health issues. If you do not do this, it is considered
negligence.
- Using this theory will help us understand the relationship between human need fulfilment and
human behavior
