Back for more!!!

After my class four patient at the VA last week, I was ready to throw in the towel. Only after scaling for two hours on one quad and barely making a dent I thought maybe hygiene was not my calling, although my instructor told me that even a seasoned hygienist would have a hard time with this patient. I came back today with some hessitation and it went well. I missed a few spots on my first patient because of the amount of blood I could not see the calculus. Instructor Snow gave me a few tips and I did not miss any spots on my second patient, thanks to her. I also had no retakes on my x-rays. Yeah!!!! So I guess I won't quit quite yet.
