I finally finished a full mouth of x-rays and think that they went pretty well. It is a relief to get some of those PA's done. I wanted to see the bone levels on my patient. He had some slight loss of the crestal lamina dura. My patient was fairly healthy, but had a lot of restorations and recession. Therefore, I put him in a class two. My teacher said I would be surprised at how much calculus I will find down below the gum levels. I didn't even get to the cleaning today and felt like I was going as fast as I could. I'm excited to find some calculus. My goal for the rest of the semester is just to be very organized. There is so much to do everyday so sometimes it just gets crazy. I think if I keep everything a little more organized and accesible I will get more done in the appointment. Next Monday I have my sister coming in. Pass of the PE for sealants or atleast get one done to pass off part of the sealant requirement.
