this morning i had a 1b. he was pretty easy, but he was late, so i had to rush! I also had a 1a and a finished up my 4 today! it was stressful for sure... I missed a few spots on my class 4 patient. All of them were really subgingivally, so alexander had me get out my gracey minis and they worked perfect!

My morning patient did not show:( but michelle helped me out and gave me one of her patients. she was just a 1b, but better to have someone in my chair than none! My afternoon patient was a 4 so that was great! i got 4 bwx and gave her an IA which was difficult because she didnt have any of her molars. My instructor had to show me how to feel for the location. I also gave her to mental injections. she was missing some teeth so i was able to finish 2 quads.

My mom came in this morning. I feel a little more comfortable starting off with someone i know! She was a 1b. she had very little calculus and plaque, so it was a pretty quick appt. I gave her nitrous which took a little more time. i gave her .5 liters and she could already feel it and didn't want to turn it up any more.
My afternoon patient cancelled just before the appt:( , so i guess i'll get some studying done...... I swear my patient always cancels on the first day just to stress me out!!
