How often should I attend for hygiene treatment?

“How often should you attend for a hygiene treatment” is a question that's asked a lot.

We then make your recall to suit the risk assessment that we do so, you could come every three months or every four months or you could come every six months or you could come once a year but it all depends on that initial risk assessment that we do.
