Clinic Simulation Day

So today is the day that I'm supposed to pretend that I'm a real hygienist in a dental office who sees more that two patients per day. Of course, this morning I happened to have my most difficult patient i've ever seen in the chair: and only a class III. I worked on her all morning pulling, adapting, contacting, and removing as much of that concrete hard calculus as possible. I was very stressed and getting pretty tired. Luckily Professor Alexander must have been feeling rather gracious because she came over and helped me one on one get each spot of calculus that had been causing me grief. I got her done! 2 quads class III along with the curved slimline ultrasonic PE, and 6 injections: 2PSA, 2MSA, ASA, and Professor Perry showed me how to perform an Infraorbital nerve block (don't worry, just one of my most feared injections... but it went well and was actually pretty easy!)

This afternoon I'm supposed to have a new patient in at 12:30 who of course still isn't here but still hasn't given me a difinitive answer as to whether or not he'll be coming... Luckily I have a class V coming in at 1:30 so I won't have a completely empty afternoon... however, that also means that I can't see the extra patient out in the waiting room. ...LAME
