Text: At the dental hygienst

Sam is visiting Gina, the dental hygienist.

 

Sam: Hello.

Gina: Hello Mr. Waters. I'm Gina. I'll be cleaning your teeth today.

Sam: Dr. Peterson has just filled two cavities. Why do I need a cleaning?

Gina: Well, we have to make get your teeth and gums clean and disease free.

Sam: I guess that makes sense.​

Gina: Oral health leads to trouble-free teeth. I'll start off by removing plaque. Please lean back and open wide.

Sam: OK, I hope it's not too bad.

Gina: Everybody gets plaque, even if they floss regularly. That's why it's important to come in twice a year for check-ups.

Sam: (getting his teeth cleaned, can't say much...)

Gina: OK, please take a drink and rinse.

Sam: Ah, that's better.

Gina: OK, now I'll apply some fluoride. Which flavor would you like?

Sam: I have a choice?

Gina: Sure, we have mint, spearmint, orange or bubble-gum - that's for the kids.

Sam: I'd like to have the bubble-gum!

Gina: OK. (applies fluoride) Now, let me give your teeth a final flossing.

Sam: What type of floss tape do you recommend?

Gina: Personally, I like the flat tape. It's easier to get between the teeth.

Sam: OK, I'll remember that the next time I buy floss. How often should I floss?

Gina: Everyday! Twice a day if possible! Some people like to floss after every meal, but that's not absolutely necessary.

Sam: (after finishing the cleaning) I feel much better. Thank you.

Gina: My pleasure. Have a pleasant day, and remember to floss every day - at least once a day!
