Today we practiced more ORAL HYGIENE instruction! We actually went through the whole process up and through OHI. We started once again with HHx, which I am starting to finally feel comfortable with. My patient had taken some medication this morning so I was able to look it up in DDR and recorded that in her chart. I was able to do it just fine so I haven't forgotten, I was pretty excited about that. Anyway, then we did HHxRx and OD. I feel pretty comfortable with these because we have done them several times. Then we probed half of the lower arch and I felt pretty good about how I did. I feel like I am starting to get it and I could actually read my probe today. We then did disclosing again and OHI. I am proud to say that I already after only two days raised my PFI quite considerably. Today was kind of like a review day of almost everything we have learned thus far, it was really good because I actually felt like this is more what it's like when we have a real patient. We had a time frame and had to get all this done within that. I felt a little pressure but it went well and I was able to get it done so I am pleased.
