Progress

I think that I'm not the most creative person when it comes to titles for my blogs but it makes sense for this one. I had a eighteen year old patient who had never had a cleaning in his life. I would just touch his gums and he would bleed profusely. He ended up being a class III so the first appt. I anestatized him and cleaned one quad. He would have been a perfect board patient! The calculus came off so well, and there was plenty of it! Id just feel horrible if I made him wait that long. He was very anxious to improve and after some instruction on proper home care he was off. When I saw him for the next appt. His tissues had changed dramatically for the better. It was pretty awesome to see! He barely bled at all in that quadrant! This was such a good pt. experience! Its cool to see such a big difference!
