My goal for today was to fill out the patient's chart faster, but we didn't get to do any charting. We learned how to use the intra-oral camera and then practiced exploring and scaling. The intra-oral camera is fun to use, but it will take some practice. It is hard because everything is backwards when you are using it. We also did our dental screening PE today, but I won't find out until next time if I passed. My goal for next time is to practice adapting the tip of the scaler to the tooth in the col area.
