Last monday clinic of junior year!

Today I had a patient of Brooke's scheduled for sealants but he cancelled yesterday so I was stressing out. I had planned on doing my air-powder polish PE on him and getting my last sealant requirement over with. I texted a bunch of the DH girls and asked if any of them had anybody I could do a sealant on. Within two minutes Karlie Nichols had gotten a hold of me and told me that her sister was coming in for sealants and that I could do some sealants and my air-powder polish PE on her. Seriously such a blessing. I don't know how else I would have gotten those requirements done with only one clinic session left this semester. One of the reasons I have been able to stay semi-sane throughout my first year of dental hygiene school is because of the amazing girls that I have around me every day. We all get along well and do everything that we can to help each other out. I am so thankful for the girls I have to support me every day!

Cute little 7 year old girl patient

Today I saw another 1A patient. She was so cute and excited to be here. I was able to pass off my Diagnodent PE too and do a sealant on her. I was a good experience. I am not great with kids so it was good to get it over with. 2 more clinic sessions to go! Woo woo!

Class 3 requirement DONE!

I finished up the last of theclass 3 quads that I need today! Pretty exciting stuff. He was a bleeder. I had to keep wiping off his gums and rinsing out his mouth. Poor guy. He was a really good patient though.

I still need 10 PAs and 2 sealants, as well as 8 more quads of 1A. Yikes. I have my 1A patients scheduled and have 1 sealant patient but I am seriously stressed about finding PAs because none of my patients the rest of the semester need x-rays. I am going to try to get some PAs from midtown today. Wish me luck!

Goal: TAKE PAs!
