Today was a very first patient day (with someone other than in the program). I was super nervous going into this! Rhett was my first patient and I was glad cuz I know he is tough and I wouldn't hurt him! I am so grateful for such a supporting husband. Today went okay! I was expecting to get further than what I did, but that is ok! I guess I will be able to use him for an emergency patient next semester, when someone doesn't show up! I hard a time with my gingival descriptors! Professor Costly had to help me with these! I thought the X-ray process took a long time, which is to be expected with all of us students and very few instructors. Probing went ok, I wasn't off by one on any of depths, which is good. I didn't get to OHI, which I was totally thinking I was going too. I thought I was going to get to scale one quad, but it didn't happen. I am so grateful for Rhett coming! I felt so bad he didn't know where the clinic was, so he parked by the practice football field and then he finally found out he was away from the clinic, so he ran all the up to clinic so he wasn't late. It was a great experience, I hope that I continue to learn things better and go at a much faster pace.
