Today we got to work on the dental screening. It was nice because now we actually know how to chart. We all had pretty good mouths so not a lot to chart. I got to feel what a cavity feels like. I was amazed to see how much info was on one green sheet. We must have to get pretty good at this to fill that all out within one app. and still have time to do the cleaning. The PE was very helpful in learning how to chart the different existing work and work to be done. I'm used to doing it on the computer so it will be nice to do it by hand and see which one I like better. I passed off my instrument classification and adaptation, angulation, and activation PE. This week my goal is to work on using anterior instruments. I'm very excited for the fall break. We definitely need one!
