Class II Exam part 1
I needed to find a patient to do my true class II exam on and luck was with me when Prof. Costley drew my name for 1 of 3 patients that the Sr's had screened. The only problem was she was Spanish speaking. Thanks to Karina who helped me get her scheduled for April 1. I was going to try to speak a few phrases in Spanish that I had my Dad help me with but when I told them to my patient she just looked at me with a confused look. Oh well. My goals for the day were to do the OD, one PE, and get at least half of her mouth done. Check, check, and check. I was able to get my ultrasonic PE done though I definitely need more practice with it! My patient didn't have what I considered to be much calculus but it was so tenacious that I kept missing areas when it came to my scale checks. I felt like such a failure by the end of the day.
