I'm done done done

I finished my last child and did a full mouth of conventional x-rays.  I was in a hurry and felt stressed.  I'm trying so hard to not get stressed b/c my grasp gets hard.  Luckly I didn't do anything w/ instrumentation only sel pol with my young cousin of mine.  I finished my requirements, x-rays, and pe's.  Happy Happy Happy Day.  So my next goal for next year is not to forget everything I learned

Pre-missionary cleaning

So my old releif society councilor is going on her mission and does not have dental insurance... so I was able to contribute my services for a reduced price.  It is a great feeling.  It was a long day too b/c I was in clinic all day to pass off the peer calculus removal pe and gracey pe on Kayla's pt.  Busy, but good!  All I have left to do is my x-rays in which a former student at Weber dh is coming in to help me out.  So sweet of her.  Next goal... finish up x-ray requriements!

Cousin Day

So my cousin presented an interesting case; he had a retained partial of a baby tooth.  So instead of doing quads, I did a sealant and allowed the dentist to pull that little sucker out!  I hope he got partial money under his pillow that night.  I already fulfilled my 1B requirements, but I was not concerned about quads... only sealants and x-rays.  I only have 1 pe left to pass... so that will be my next goal... plus x-rays.

My favorite Patient

So... I had someone special from Arizona come up to visit me for a dental cleaning... plus other stuff... but getting those requirements are just as important.  Poor guy... he just came back from his mission, but his teeth looked better than mine.  Talk about brushing your teeth 3 times a day and flossing everyday to prevent cavities.  I'm happy to say... he did not have any suspicious areas.  Poor guy... Tanya and I passed so many PE's on him.  He is a true friend!  I didn't feel so rushed this time... next goal is to finish my PE's by next monday
