If you own an ipod, psp, or some handheld game, bring that.


If you don%26#039;t, then bring a magazine or book or something of the sort.
Reply:take ipod/something to listen too. read a magazine in between cleaning and seeing doctor
Reply:bring an ipod and sunglasses
Reply:Not much you can do but sit and wait. Come on it takes what? Like 30 minutes? Surely you can sit still for that small amount of time.
Reply:Put on your ipod headphones or try practicing something you just tried memorizing for an exam in class.
Reply:I usually just sit there...


Really not too much you can do
Reply:Think of some funny times you have had with your friends. Or you can count how many times the dentist switches the tools he uses. Or you can act like you have a disabilty so they can give you some special treatment.
Reply:wow it only takes like 10 or 15 min? just sit there and stare at the light...
Reply:I like to think what I am going to eat after my cleaning.





How much money I have in my purse to buy my lunch with?





Should I go through the drive through or walk in.





I wonder if I need more beauty products.
Reply:Close your eyes and relax. Fall asleap if you want to. A cleaning should only take 30-45 minutes, so take the time out and enjoy not having to do anything but relax during that time. We have tv for our patients to watch during their procedures, but if your office does not have that, bring an Ipod.
Reply:Contrary to some of the answers, dental cleaning should last at least 1 hour. If your dentist has the time to clean your teeth then he must not have many patients. Dental hygienist are the ones that clean your teeth, they are trained for 2-4 years to do this and most are really good at what they do. Even if you maintain great hygiene make sure your dentist or hygienist hand scales your teeth and not just polishes them.


Most hygienists I speak with say that a perfect patient is a relaxed or sleeping patient so my advice is to try to relax and possibly nap. Your teeth should feel really great afterwards.
