Intraoral Camera

Tpday we learned intraoral camera use briefly.  I practiced on my classmate today and was able to go through the whole OD process.  I did an extra oral exam, an intra oral exam, probing on 1 quadrant, charted the dental screening I found, and disclosed with a disclosing agent for the PFI %.  The disclosing agent I used was yellow so it made it very difficult to see the plaque.  I won't be using that again! :)  I also practiced giving her OHI and was able to pass off this PE while I did it.  I described periodontitis and caries formation.  I practiced with the curet again today and was able to pass this off as well!  I felt like today was a very productive day for me and my class mates!
