The dentist and hygienist work together as a team. A typical appointment with the hygienist will involve a though clean and check of the gums, discussion on how to best clean your teeth and can give you a customised plan to your needs. The primary goal is prevention of dental problems or early identification to minimise costly procedures. During the appointment the dentist will come in to further examine the teeth and mouth and importantly discuss any concerns you may have.
