3/19/09

Today was hard, both my patients were class IV and needed anesthetic. They both were really good experiences for me. I learned there tenacious calculus can be somewhat impossible to get off. Both of my patients I will have to check for residual next time because it was so hard to get off. I learned that when you do a tissue eval its easier to check for residual because the tissues have shrunk down. I also realized how easy it is to get fatigue.

3/5/09

Today was a long day to be honest. I had a perio patient in the morning and in the afternoon I had a 1b and a 1a both with x-rays. This keep me very busy and constantly doing something. I felt like tearing down and resetting up twice in one appointment is alot. I cant imagine what it will be like in practice. overall good day
