My goal for today was to pass off my root debridement and periodontal file PE's. I got to see my class IV patient this morning and it was a great learning experience. #8 had class III mobility, and I had to hold it in while I scaled it. I got both of my PE's passed off too. In the afternoon I think I found my board patient! I haven't taken x-rays yet, but I'm pretty sure he will qualify. It just scares me to decide on a board patient because I don't think I'll ever be 100% sure they will qualify. My goal for next time is to get 2 quads done on my class IV patient.
