Hygenists clean teeth, removing calcarous deposits and stains from teeth and gum margins. They examine gums for signs of disease, check for signs of tooth decay, check head, nack and oral areas, and take x-rays as appropriate. They review and record medical histories and results of examinations, communicate with patients, advise and educate patients, provide information and support to dentists.
