Thanks Trev!

Dear Trevor,

Thanks for being patient with me today as I poked a proded your teeth.  You were so good about letting me do what I needed to without any complaints.  I know that you don't really like to have me instruct you on how to take care of your teeth, but you took it like a champ!  Love you lots!

Love,
Sarah

I really felt like I am starting to understand the full flow of how clinic is to work.  I almost and did make some stupid mistakes.  I almost forgot to put the safety glasses on my patient (critical!!!).  I did forget to have my treatment plan created before my instructor came to do the OD check.  I shouldn't have done conventional film.  It took way to long to send them through the developer.  The first x-ray I took didn't turn out at all because it was hurting my hubby.  Next time that happens, I will take it out and put an edge eeze on it before taking the x-ray.  I tried to make it work and it just didn't.  I also failed to walk out my husband after his appointment was complete.  I tried to have him checked out with his treatment plan.  It didn't even occur to me that I hadn't walked him out until Prof. Costley asked why I was walking him out with the treatment plan.  I felt like I could have used my time better.  Probing still is a little hard for me.  I feel like I am struggling with getting the proper angle for seeing the very back of all of the molars.  I felt that this was a good experience.  I learned what not to do and how I can improve.  I can't wait to get him back in and finish the job!
