Oral Diagnosis

So today in clinic we went over oral diagnosis. Though technically we are not able to make a "diagnostic" decision, we chart "suspicious areas" and chart all existing work that has been done. Thankfully I had lots of practice doing this in my office, so I feel pretty confident in it. I practiced my curet scaler PE because I hope to pass that off next time we have clinic. I need to remember my lateral pressure when I am doing mesial and distal because it helps to make the toe and face of the blade be at a better angle. If that makes any sense at all :) We are moving fast and we are about half way through the semester, I can't believe our mock patient day is coming up!! I am excited!
