Summer Clinic - Week 2

Procedures accomplished:
  • preliminary denture impressions
  • made custom trays for final impressions
  • prophy
  • impressions for diagnostic casts
  • MOD onlay and DO inlay preps for typodont exams

It's nothing glamorous, like the occlusal preps a few people got to do, or even scaling and root planing, but it's progress. Those diagnostic casts mean I'm one step closer to prepping a crown - craziness for a first go round, but that's how it works around here.

Up for next week:

  • final denture impressions
  • record bases and wax rims for dentures
  • custom trays, templates, mounting of diagnostic casts for crown prep consult
  • cast MOD only and DO inlays by Thursday

Let's just say I need to get used to short lunches and staying late to do lab work....
