Phys consults suck

so I am not feeling to productive today i seen a 1 b and did a physician consult for about three hours suckie... I felt so bad cause my patient wanted his teeth cleaned so bad that he stayed the whole time and was not even able to get anything done. but I finally got the fax and we will be good to go for the next visit. but it was a lesson learned so that when I am get in the real world I just may have to do one and now I know how and what I need. bless jamie's heart she let me pass off air powder on her which is not so much fun i remember having to do it last year for someone. and then I got a sealant done wahoo. it comming down to the wire and we are so close I cant wait

Mentor project

I really enjoyed going and doing my mentor assisgnment I didnt learn alot that I didnt already knew what I watched the flow of things and picked the hygienist brain to good tips for when I am in her shoes here in a few months. it made me really excited to start practicing and seeing more patients. I know ill be a little over whelmed at first but I thinking ill start to really get the hand of it after a few weeks. I liked to watch and see how they chart and what their order is in the way they run an appointment. i was really amazed in how well the the doctor and the hygienist both did an oral cancer screening that way nothing was over looked. I really enjoyed this office and hope the next one will be just as good

VA

I had a new experience I scaled well tried to scale a 10 mm pockets it was of been even deeper but that is as far as my probe was going to go. I tlked to the periodontitis and he was so nice and was telling me the plan and when we should really refer to a periodontitis he say when you have a few pockets that are deeper than a 6. if you only have one or two he said that we can usually maintain them by just seeing a hygienist in a regular practice by any moe than that we should really refer. I seen stomitis on the soft palate from smoking it was nice to see in real life since I have only seen it in a book. I cant believe how hard stain is to get off  it sucked and it was not fun. I also had my patient on nitrous and i think I was breathing it in also I got way sick and had to leave, this is weird cause it happened to me last time I used it on a patient too, plus its hard to work around . well thats my day:)
