NO SHOWS Boo! Board Patients Hooray!!

this morning I was suppose to see the daughter of my patient from last week but, she never confirmed and she didn't show. It is annoying but it happens. It actually worked out though because their was a patient needing to be seen by midtown that day and he wanted his teeth cleaned so I saw him. My instructor and I decided that even though he only had about ten teeth he was equivalent to one quad of a Class 3 and so I used him as another class 3 exam. This afternoon I had my patient that had a cold sore come back and his cold sore was healed thank goodness. I was super excited becuase as I was doing his OD I was like this guy is totally a good candidate for Boards. I talked to him about being my patient and he was unsure becuase he doesn't want to wait that long to have his teeth cleaned. After talking with him he decided he would be my patient. I was excited and nervous at the same time because his hesitation makes me unsure if he will be reliable. He told me that if he agreed to it then He would be there. So I'm crossing my fingers he shows and doesn't have a cold sore. Then I took his xrays and it took me like two hours. He had a narrow palate and that made it more difficult plus I wanted them perfect since they will be for WREB and it was the first time I'd had to do mulitpule retakes with scanx, that is very difficult I wish I knew of a faster way then take it develope it ect. I finally got them all but I was way embarrased that it took me that long.
