Today I came to clinic thinking that I would be seeing a class 3 this morning but come to find out Jamey needed a class 3 patient and since I was already done with my requirements I switched patients with her so that she could complete her requirements. It was nice to only see a class 2 patient but at the same time it would have been nice to get a couple quads done today on him and schedule him back and have guaranteed 2 quads of a class 3 but thats ok I helped someone which is great! In the afternoon my patient was my husband, he hadn't been in since January of last year so he was due for a cleaning so I saved my last appt. for him. I also needed to pass of my blood glucose PE so it was nice to know that I could pass that off on him today and since he is an EMT he could help me along if I had trouble. He has very heathy teeth and tissue and it was a nice easy afternoon. Everything went well.

It was a good semester and it is great to be done and have a little break!

In clinic I had a new patient in the morning who hadn't been to the dentist in 15 years. He was a midtown pt and they refered him to us. I was shocked because although he hadn't been the the dentist in 15 years his teeth had very little build-up and not a whole lot of pocketing. He ended up being only a class 5 which was ok because I had my requirements done but had I not been it was have been very disappointing.

In the afternoon my patient was a 1B she is the secretary at the fire station that my husband works at and has been wanting to come in and bring her sons with her ever since the beginning of the semester. I finally got her and her boys in and she was a nice easy patient to end the day on.
