Today was a great day. My morning patient was very nice, although he had quite a few missing teeth. He was a class V with lots of plaque. The ultrasonic is amazing. My afternoon pt was awesome. He had mental disabilities which I was nervous for but it turned out to be a fabulous experience. I'm happy I got to have a patient like him here before I'm on my own in practice. Nitrous oxide really helped. Overall not a good calculus removal day but a good learning experience.

Wow first day back, it was pretty exciting. I found my mock board and board patient, hopefully they will be reliable. My second patient no showed me which was not that great but my morning patient news made up for it. All I did on my morning patient was x-rays so no scaling.
