At a hygiene appointment, your hygienist removes staining and build up from above and below your gum line. Your hygienist uses airflow and hand scaling, which means cleaning with small hand instruments, and explains what is causing any staining. If you choose hygiene with a dentist examination, a dentist also examines your teeth and takes x-rays if you need them.

You get advice on your next visit
Your hygienist explains what is causing any staining. Your dentist suggests when to come back, based on your risk of tooth decay and gum disease.
How often you need to come back depends on your own risk of tooth decay and gum disease. NICE guideline CG19, 2004, from the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence, advises a gap of between 3 and 24 months between visits for adults, and no more than 12 months for people under 18.
Your dentist sets this gap based on the health of your teeth and gums. If your gums are healthy and your risk is low, you may be able to wait longer between visits. If you have gum disease, you are likely to need to come back sooner.
