Today was our first official mock patient day. I worked on Ashley Rasmussen. She was doll today! It was really neat to see the whole appointment from start to finish. I have realized that I HAVE to get better with probing. It felt ALL wrong and I was just getting frustrated. But my readings ended up being pretty accurate, except that I didn't have any bleeding spots recorded. I just really feel like I don't know what I'm doing still. And scaling....sheesh! When am I ever going to be good at scaling? I hope that someday it will come to me and feel natural.....but that day might not be super soon. All-in-all it was a great experience and I feel like I am able to connect the dots as to what we've been doing and do a full appointment. It was fun!
