During my kid's last cleaning this summer they had their work done but had to sit around for about 20 minutes with the hygienist doing nothing while they waited for the dentist to show up who took a quick look and said that everything looked okay.

Dental appointments always seem to be hugely inefficient and take way longer than they should.
There are dental hygienist offices only. I go to Lifetime Smiles across from Southcentre 3-4 times a year and that's it. I only see a dentist if something needs to be properly looked at.
