Your Medical History
Before the actual treatment starts, the hygienist will question you some
things such as: Is this your first appointment for a treatment? If no, how
long have you been under dental examinations? Are you taking some
medications or have any sort of health conditions such as diabetes, blood
diseases, arthritis, pregnancy, allergies, etc. These questions sum up to
create your medical history which will be sent for examination. The
medical history helps the dentist in determining whether you are fit to
undergo a particular dental treatment or not.
