Last day of clinic...

I cant believe today is the last day. Time sure does fly when your having fun. Cole was sweet enough to come in and let me pass off some pes on him. It was fun. He was such a sweetheart and brought me flowers to school for my birthday. I love him so much.

1A

This morning I saw my friends little Boy. He is so stinkin cute. What an angel he was for me. I seriously think he is better than some adults. I finished him so fast. I should of scheduled a screening or something

What?...you have never had a cleaning???

Today I had a patient who has never had a cleaning in her life. Her calculus was so tenacious. She was 4 quads of a 3. I got 1 quad done and she is coming back in 2 weeks.

VA day

I just need to vent for a minute!! What the hell is up with the xrays at the VA?? I serioulsy HATE them. I cannot take a good film to save my life. I dont get it. But I do love my VA instructor!!! She is awesome. I have learned alot of tricks from her.

Husband and Wife

Today I saw a very nice couple. They were both class 5. I did pass off one of my exams. It went really well. They just got back from a 3 week cruise in Europe...so jealous!

Thank you sister

Today my sis came in for me. She was a life saver. She was a trooper and let me pass off the worst pe on her...Air powder polish!

My mockboard came back...

I was a little nervous for her to come back...but more excited to rock her calculus!!! It went really good. I only missed 2 spots. A little better than 7:)

WHAT A BUST!!!

So today was mockboards....and it went horrible. I missed so many spots and I even had some probing errors. I feel like such a failure. But on the plus side I gave my first 4 injections!!! It went pretty good. I was a little nervous but Kami helped me through it!!!!

GREAT DAY!!

This morning I found my mockboard. She has SO much calculus. I am super nervous to clean her for mockboards because I won't be able to clean any quads because I need both of them to qualify. Her mom had her maxillary teeth pulled when she was 18 because she thought it was too much money to maintain. SO SAD!!

1A

This afternoon I saw and little boy. He was so cute and polite. He even said thank you at the end!!! It was sad because he had a lot of decay. I spent a lot of time on OHI and he seamed really interested. Hopefully it will help him.

Husband day!!!

Today my husband came in for a cleaning because my patient cancelled last minute. He builds so much calculus. At first we classified him as a 1B but after cleaning him we changed it to a 2. He didn't really have a bone loss but for sure has the deposit!! I think working on your family is the worst!!

VA-Hard patient!!!

This morning at the VA I had a patient with 5 teeth and the rest on the mandible were broke off at the gum line. He was very sick and in alot of pain. I had a really hard time fulcruming. Connie was great at showing me some new ways!!!

Great experience

Today was very good. I had a patient come in that I saw in April, I thought he was going to be a 5 buy he turned out being a class III!!! Best thing every. This afternoon I has my class II with braces come back.....it went so much better than last time! Another tiring day.

1st day of clinic

Today was the first day back seeing patients, My morning patient was difficult. She had braces and was a class II. I thought my arm was going to fall offf:) I couldn't find a patient for the afternoon so my wonderful grandma came in...what a trooper!!! By the end of the day I was spent!!!!

Class III finished!!!

Today has to be the best feeling!!! I finally finished my requirements! My patients today was so tough. Thanks to Angie I finished his quad. My arm felt like it was going to fall off! Hopefully I will get really strong muscles and they wont get as sore!!!

Another class III

thanks goodness I have amazing classmates! Abby was so kind and gave me 3 quads of a III but I ended up only needing 2...I was really nervous about her actually showing up. Nick had to explain to her how important it was for her health and for us a students! She ended up showing up thanks god!!!

1st CLASS III

I finally found a class III thanks to a senior not being able to finish him due to scheduling! I was so excited! He was really hard for me to clean. It is crazy how tenacious calculus can be. I have one quad left on him and I am so excited to finish him up!

One of the nicest patients...

Today I saw a really really nice guy. He ended up being a class II and having a pretty long HHX so I didn't finish him up. I felt really bad because he wanted to get finished so bad.

Finishing my class II exam

I got to finish my class II exam. It was so awesome to have her come back and look at her tissue that I finished last week. It was amazing! Today went a little better but not great. I also had my mom come in for a pano. Thankfully Angie let me see even thought it was after the time you are suppose to see your 2nd pt! But I finished her in just enough time!! Today was a good day overall...I also passed off a pe! Only a couple more to go!!!

Finishing my grandma!

Today I finish the 4 quads that I has left on my gma! If went super fast. She takes super good care of her teeth so her had hardly and calculus. It was a great day!

CLASS II EXAM

So I got to see my class II exam today! It was a little challenging. I didn't do as good as I would of liked. I was hoping to finish her today but that didn't happen:( I seriously would like to know how you go from school where you see 1 pt maybe 2 if you are super fast to going to an office and seeing one every 50 minutes!!!

Extra Quads and a 1A!!

Today went really good. I finished up a 1b which was super easy. I was cleaning up my room and there was a little girl that needed to be seen so I was lucky and got to see her. She was so CUTE!

Finally Class II!!!

DENVER WAS SO NICE AND GAVE ME 2 QUADS OF A II...I AM SO THANKFUL. IT WENT REALLY WELL. I ALSO GOT 3 PES DONE WHICH IS AWESOME!!! TODAY WAS A LITTLE BETTER THAN THE PAST 2 WEEKS...HOPEFULLY EVERYTHING WILL END UP WORKING OUT!

Oh my gosh!

I am so done with school. I still have no class 2 or class 3. What am I going to do???? So stressed out. I keep bring in patients that I think will be class 2 and they are not:( I am so sad...I need summer!!!

I DID IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Today was great. I finally finish an adult pt in one appt and missed no spot! Best feeling ever:) What a wonderful day...

Another one down!

Today went really good. I finally got 2 pes done!!! That is super exciting considering I haven't done one this whole semester! I only missed 3 spots. It was a really good experience! I think I am starting to get the hang of it...but I am not getting excited because I am probably far from that!!!!!

First 1a patient

Today went really good. I saw my first 1a patient. He was 11 and had a little bit of supragingival calculus. It was fun to teach him OHI. He seemed really into it. After I got done with him I saw his sister and Did a couple of sealants on her. Overall it was a really good day!

Its been forever!!!

I guess I should be better at blogging so I have more experiences to look back at! I saw my dad today. It was his second time coming in. I had all 4 quads to scale. It went really good. I am still struggling with time but it improved from Monday which is a plus. I missed 3 spots...not to shabby!!!! I feel like things are getting better but I am lacking the confidence. Overall it was a great day. I am so thankful that I have awesome family and friends that are will to come in and sit here for HOURS!!

1st day back...

Can I just say it was so hard to get my butt out of bed today!!! It was a really good day. We learned the ultrasonic and graceys...I LOVE the ultrasonic.
