Me and OH went to the Dentist yesterday for checkups. We are with an NHS Dentist so we pay a set price. We were in there about 5 minutes which cost £31(for both of us) for her to say to us that we would benefit from seeing the Dental Hygienist. Last time she gave us both a scale and polish which was included in that price but this time we have both booked in to see the hygienist for £37 each on top of what we have already paid. I was just wandering if anyone knew what they do. It is a half an hour appointment and from what I can gather we get a scale and polish and a talk on how to look after our teeth. All i'm thinking is that surely that should be included in the £31 and we shouldn't have to see the hygienist unless they do something that the Dentist doesn't. Am I being ripped off?
