Goal: Class IA, 2 BWX, and Sealant PE
Actual: Class IA, 2 BWX, PEs- Sealant and Air Powder polish
I had my day planned out so I would see 2 children. My first patient's mother text me over the weekend saying her child got sick and didn't think it would be a good idea to have her daughter seen that day. I agreed and told her I would let Sierra know and see if she could see her another day. I will follow up with her next month to see if she had been seen.
I was still able to see one child that day. She happens to be in my family which made me nervous since family usually acts up when another family member is providing a service for them. I realized this when doing hair and I've noticed a little when watching other peers seeing family in the clinic. It makes sense though. Family are more relaxed to whimper or make you feel nervous not to make you feel bad but to tease and play. Either way I wasa little nervous.
When she came back I asked her if she was ready to take x-rays. She was such a good sport about it. I was able to get Shick x-rays with the first shot and she did great! I was so proud of her. I relaxed a little and knew she would be great for the rest of the appointment. I was able to get her cleaned in one appointment and was able to place sealants and use my air powder polish on her teeth to prep them for the sealant! She was so great! I got so much accomplished and I was able to pass on the sealant experience to one of my friends as well.
This day went really well for me! I had a little boost of confidence. This was such a good experience for her and for me.
