If you think of the hygiene appointment as a 60 minute clock, the first 15 minutes are designed to be the pre-diagnosing stage when necessary radiographs and intra-oral photos are taken and displayed on the monitor. At this stage, the hygienist can pre-recommend care that she/he expects the Dr. may see during the exam.
