perfect day

I was able to accomplish a lot today and I feel pretty good about it!! This morning I was 2 1A pts and was able to get sealants on both. I passed off my diagnodnt and sealant pe!! woot woot This was great because I was really worried about getting my sealants done!! My afternoon pt was again a class V but I did get to pass off my blood glucose PE!! Woot Woot!! My pt was a talker wow I couldn't get a word in edge wise but he was sweet and showed up 10 min early!! so cool. I learned today how to differentiate from calc and mal opposed teeth a few tips If you can't feel it from the lingual check the position of the tooth behind it from the mesial!! overall a good days work!

mockboard

Wow was today stressful!! My pt was late then he was on the phone the whole time with his girlfriend!! yeah so rude!! I did not do as well as I hoped but I do feel like I learned some really important things. 1 find a reliable board pt 2 find one with a bigger mouth instead of a tiny mouth! 3) relax 4) numb up pt to make your life easier!! 5) don't be timid watch the distal line angles! 6) have some confidence and 7 relax again. I think this will be a turning point for me where I can take this opportunity to learn and improve my skills!! so practice then bring on the next mockboard!!
