Last week was very uneventful. No-showed on Monday, did my oral surgery progress exam on Tuesday, crazy patient issues on Wedensday, jaw relations on Thursday (set teeth all night long), and anterior/posterior try-in and crazy patient issues on Friday. I finished up the denture at home over the weekend and turned it in today!
I also made a visit to Dr. Gannaway's office due to all the crazy patient issues to ask - PLEAD - for another patient. Since my fixed seems to be vaporizing before my eyes and I have no bridge, I'm a little panicked. He filled me in on Friday that he earmarked a patient for me, and I got her in my box today! Answered prayer. She needs a bridge (!), some fillings (!), and might be type II perio (!). That means I need to get her through consults, in and out of perio, hop on that bridge, and get those fillings done - all before April. I hope she's good! I'll keep plugging away as if she's not, but pray that she is : ) Early (late?) Christmas!
