Last Mockboard!

Today was the last mockboard. I can't believe that this semseter is almost over! My patient was an alright patient for mockboard. Her calculus was pretty rough, but I think I did a pretty good job. I have not seen what my score is yet, so I guess I will have to wait for that to really see how well I did. Anyways not to much more than that to say. I am doing 2 screenings on Firday hopefully one of them will be my board!

This morning I was able to see a class3/4 I was able to scale the right side of his mouth, and also do some LA. I am glad that I was able to do LA because he was so sensitive. When I was probing during the OD, he kept pulling away from me which was pretty annoying. He also seemed very nervous, and his mouth was quivering the during the UR quad. When I got down to the LR quad he seemed to relax and do a little bit better. He is coming back to finish up the left side in April. My afternoon patient canceled and I was unable to find another patient. I was able to study for boards most of the time, which was nice and a little stressful. I can't believe how soon boards are. Well that is all I can think of right now, better get back to studying.

So today was a pretty productive day. This morning I was able to see my brother who was a 1B. He had been wanting to get in and get his teeth cleaned and I could not find anybody to fill my morning appointment today so he was able to come in. This afternoon I was able to see a patient who is most likely going to be my mockboard. She has pretty tenacious calculus, and had a few 6 mm pockets. I am going to try and find somebody who is more ideal, but if not I will use her. I was able to get my ScanX PA's completed on her also which makes me glad considering I was done with PA's last semester. Today was a overall good day!
