Today my morning was pretty chill, I saw a class V patient that my peer pal had given me. She was so sweet and so easy going. Apparently she has been coming to Weber for a long time her chart is HUGE! But what can I say that happens when you stay on top of your dental cleanings.:)

Yet again...

VA today though always crazy wasn't to bad. The best part is that Olivia, Candace, April and I get to go outside in the amazing weather for lunch. I yet again saw 2 class V patients and was able to finish them both. Yay 8 more quad of a class V and Im on the road to meeting requirements! We've been getting to know Barb a little better and I'm not sure what to think yet.

LIAR! LIAR I SAY!

So this afternoon I had a patient come in that had called last week when I was CA. He was in the older 20's and said he doesn't remember the last time he had a cleaning, aka he never has had one. So since he hasn't had any dental stuff done in such a long time I told him that we really needed to do a full mouth series of xrays which he opposed to when I told him the cost, which was fine so I said ok then we can do 4 BWX and a pano. Of course to no surprise he was ok with the BWX but not the pano, " it was cutting into his lunch money"... (my eyes rolled)... so we went on with what we had. I got him back and started his OD and asked about his home care.. typical answer, " I brush 2x's a day and floss 1 time a day." this is where I seriously about bust out laughing. all said and done, BFI 0% and PFI 0%! I think the number speak for themselves. I was only able to get one quad done but he was a class II.

Finished? what?

So this morning was AWESOME! So last year I was never able to finish a 1B in a single appointment and guess what?! somehow maybe cause I know the flow of things and am not so scatter brained that was able to finish a 1B! Thanks  and a big shout out to Kalli! She is so amazing and such a good friend to be willing to come in for me. It was so nice to be able to talk real dental with a patient and good friend that I haven't seen in forever! I can finally see that I might actually be improving!

CA Duties

Today was pretty chilax. April and I were CA for the day which I have to say was really pretty nice to get back into the swing of things for Weber clinic. Not having to worry about seeing a patient and seeing how things run again around here, it was nice. :) I was able to help out with charting, which was a good refresher, and then did a fair amount in the front office. Still not a fan of MR. Solomon.... I'll just say he irritates me....

Round 2!

Ok so its day 2 of the VA and I was yet again able to finish a class V! This afternoon though was awesome! Connie let me help her with a patient and he was this extra old man I mean like about to croak on me in the chair, but he was a class IV! I was so awesome I was able to do a pano and bitewings and get 1 quad done. I wish I was able to get more done but atleast i got one quad! Also connie gave me a "crash course" on the files which will be amazing when I can really start to use them!

VA first day

Today was pretty crazy! I had more training in the morning for the VA and that in and off its self was so confusing. I  HATE computers the more I am forced to use them. Now don't get me wrong I use computers a lot but when it comes to programs like what the VA uses I hate them and could literally throw them out a window! The afternoon went pretty well however. I saw a class V patient and was able to finish all 4 quads! Hurray some improvement there!
