10/17/2011

Today at clinic we put together almost all the things we have learned so far.  It was great practice.  We first went over the pt HH form, through charting HHx and HHxRx, to OD recording extra,and intra oral exams, dent, and perio.  We also probed, and recorded.  Then OHI showing PFI and BFI, pts education, goals, and instructions. We ended with StatusRx. I would love to have that kind of practice again.  I think that we would get faster and more efficient with it,and put it into my long term memory. Hands on help me to visualize the information that I read over in the book too.  It just makes more sense.
I also tried to practice with my curet for a few minutes. I didn't get much time but I have a question about placing the tip of the working end properly onto the tooth. It is hard to get that 70 degree angles.  I am going to go over that at home, and then check with a instructor. Over all it was a good day
