I'm going to a dental school to get my teeth cleaned/examined. What should I expect?

Anyone ever been to a University dental clinic? How long will it take? Will like thousands of people be looking in my mouth if I get a cavity?

If they find something really interesting in your mouth they might have a lot of students look at it. I know there is a tiny little TV camera that some dentists use, and they might have one of those so all the students don't have to line up to look in your mouth one by one. Or they might just videotape it and show it to the students later.





I have had my teeth cleaned by dentists and by dental hygienists (specialists in cleaning teeth), and dentists do it much more gently! I think a student dentist might be even more gentle!





It should take about half an hour, maybe more depending on how careful the student is.
