The dental hygienist focuses on prevention and oral care to prevent and counteract tooth decay and gum disease. The dental hygienist can help you with your oral care and/or the prevention of tooth decay (caries or cavities) and gum disease. It is important that you visit the dental hygienist every 6 months, in addition to the visit to the dentist, for a check-up. The purpose of this visit is to keep your teeth and gums healthy and to be able to enjoy your teeth for a long time.
A referral from the dentist is not required. You can make an appointment on your own initiative. This is completely free of obligation.
