Well, I got him done! My first class 2 patient just walked out the door with a bright, goopy-yet-calculus-free smile!!! It was a lot of work but I finished him up pretty quickly with only a few errors. I learned that I need to be braver with going deep into the pocket and using even more lateral pressure in those deep pockets. I was able to pass off three different PE's!!! (Anterior #2, Posterior #2, and Ultrasonic #2) Yay for class 2 patients! Once again the experience with the cavitron was very good and I think I'm getting the hang of it a little more now. We'll see how those grades turn out... Also, I can't tell you how awesome it is that we only needed one patient this week, but I'm sure you already know the feeling :) I'm looking forward to the presentations in Periodontology tomorrow and I'm so thrilled that Jess and Ashley reminded me that we don't have Dental Med tomorrow Yay!!! Have a good one...
