Final day of my 5 week VA spree!

So this morning, was uneventful in the eyes of a dental hygiene STUDENT but rather busy in the eyes of a HYGIENIST. I had 4 quads of a class V again with BWX and a pano, pretty easy, light, supragingival calculus... nothing too exciting. However, my patient forgot to premedicate so we had to wait an hour before I could scale him. He also had a handful of health flags like insulin-dependent type II diabetes, angina pectoris, asthma, COPD, sleep apnea, joint replacement, atrio-septal defect, congestive heart failure, and the list went on. I had to make sure he took his premed, had his inhaler, ate breakfast and took his insulin, and that he had some nitroglycerin with him just in case. I also couldn't lay him back all the way nor could I use the ultrasonic so it took a little while to get him all finished. Otherwise this appointment would have been pretty quick and uneventful. Good experience for me, I needed an opportunity to deal with a pretty full health history.
