Each step of the procedure is carefully evaluated by an instructor. Therefore, you must expect to wait during the procedure. Screening (New Patients): An individual who has never been a patient in the dental hygiene clinic must be screened by the staff dentist before being accepted as a patient. At the screening appointment, the patient will fill out a medical/dental history form, have vital signs taken, and complete an oral exam.
