Today felt like a really productive day. My morning patient was a woman who I saw in November. She was an easy class 5. It went well, it just took longer than normal because she is different. But that finished up my class 5 requirements. And I got to do injections for Kim's patient and Valerie's patient. Yeah!

This afternoon I had a 10 year old boy. He was really nice and easy. The x-rays were kindof tricky but we ended up getting and okay film. He finished up my class 1A requirements. And I got do do one injection on Laura's patient. So even though my patients were easy I still got a lot done.

Today was a pretty good day. My morning patient was the class 3 patient that I saw last week. I cleaned one more quad today. I did an IA and a long buccal injection and they both went really well. It felt good to have a successful injection the week before boards. I cleaned her quad and missed a few spots. I felt a little frustrated because I felt like they were places that I went over again and again. I guess it was a good learning experience. This afternoon my patient no showed, so me and Laurie practiced angles for injections. It was a good review. I am glad that we had time to work on it.
