Today, what a day! It all went well but becuase I had this constant feeling of rushing I kept forgetting little details here and there. Overall, it was a good experience and learnt how it feels to have a patient (different than a student) be sat on your chair. Probing just gets to me more than anything because it takes soooo long! and on top of that I need to have my seeing glasses because I don't see anything without them so yeah! definately I need to purchase the super seeing anything goggles for next semester or I'm going to be in trouble!
In another note, having a 1B class patient is a really nice thing because scaling is not going to be a hard and almost no calculus to remove for the most part so it is a nice thing to practice on until we get the bone loss patients.
Also, I liked that I was able to take x-rays on my patient. They didn't turn out real bad at all which gave me so much peace of mind! I did have 1 retake on my PA but, it turned out really good also. I am excited that this day is over with and that we get to rets for a few days before the next semester starts. I feel accomlpished and 1 more micrometer comfortable with being a dental hygienist.
