I recently had a check up with a new dentist who just took over from my old one. there is a hygienist in the practice now, there never use to be. my old dentist always did the scale and polish himself. I have been asked to make an appointment with the hygienist to have a good look around.
I'm curious to know, what is the dentist role in the check-up if it isn't to have a good look around? I feel like I'm paying twice. once to the dentist and then again to the hygienist for the same thing. Does this mean that I shouldn't see my dentist as often and can I see the hygienist instead of the dentist for check ups?
