1B clinic Day

Today was a 1B day for me. This is good for the quadrants, but not for mockboard. I'm feeling a little stressed because I don't have my mockboard patient yet. I'm sure it will all work out. At least hopefully. My morning patient cancelled at 7:30, luckily my friend could come today. Clinic is startingt to get easier in some ways. Hopefully, I will find my mockboard soon.

Today in clinic I saw my class III patient. It was a great experience for me. His mandibular anterior teeth are mobile and he has a lot of recession. It was a very good confidence builder. I had to hold on to his mobile teeth while I scaled them. I didn't receive any errors today on that quadrant. I felt like I was on a roll. Its to bad that my patient needed to leave at 10:10. I will be seeing him back in 2 weeks hopefully all will go well on that day too. My patient has been a very nice patient. I'm grateful for that.

Wow what a day. In clinic today, I saw a Class III patient for an OD. It took me a lot of time to probe and record gingival recession. It was frustrating when I found out that I charted it wrong. It was very time comsuming to go back and reprobe. My patient was very understanding. It will be nice to get 4 quads of a class III when I'm finished. I saw my dad this afternoon. It was nice to have him come. I declared him as an exam for my class V. I was excited because I didn't end up with any errors. I remember last semester I felt like he was kind of hard, but this semester he has gotten easier.

First patient day back in the clinic.

Today was our first day back in clinic seeing patients. I was really glad that every thing went smoothly today. I was kind of worried that I would forget the computer stuff, but it ended up being fine. I had my brother and sister in law come in so the day wouldn't be so stressful. We have so many requirements this year I wonder if I will be able to finish them all. I guess it will happen it just seems like a lot right now.
