Yeah, I like pedo, but not enough to stay in school any longer...yeesh.

Spent the last week in the pediatric clinic.  This time around, on 3 of the afternoons, a group of us were scheduled to work at 2 community dental clinics.  It was nice to have a little field trip with some fun buddies and make some new friends, too.  Highlights of the week?  Another filling on another permanent tooth, a nitrous assist, a lap exam for a 6.5 mo old precious little girl, and a stainless steel crown.  We have to do one in pedo to graduate, so this is a nice thing to have on my progress sheet : )  I had all the good kids this week, too ; )

Back in 3rd year land, I managed to finally get my molar endo swiped, get two crowns waxed and one ready to cast, and rearrange my last Friday so I can seat a PE and take impressions on another patient so the crown can be made while we're on break.  Whew!

Next week is it. It will be insane.  I'll see you on the other side : )


Fixed: 4/13 - #5 mostly waxed, #6 is sent to the lab, #7 ready to cast, #8 cut and scheduled to impress and #9 mostly cut
