8th and 9th Patient day

Goal: Complete 2 IA, 2 sets of BWX, and sealants
Actual: 2 IA, 2 sets of BWX, and sealants on 1 of my patients

I was a little bit nervous for today to come because I was planning to attempt to see 2 patients in one day.  I only had one chair to use because the overflow was taken, so that added extra stress to get done in time.  I saw my first patient and everything went well... well kinda.  We had a few kinks in the x-ray room with the electronics and Shick was difficult to get for my patient and his tiny mouth.  I was able to get 4 sealants done today on this patient, but I had to wait 20 minutes for the dentist to check.  I had completed the whole appointment waiting on him.  Sheesh!  Otherthan that it went great!

My second patient was so great!  I was worried he was going to be difficult  because he is little and jittery, but he actually did very very well!  The x-rays went really well and so did the cleaning.  I was able to complete him very quickly without any problems.  I got done with clinic early and was able to clean up and turn in my chart on time today!  What a great day!
