REFLECTIONS
I was very happy with the outcome of this patients
treatment. He seemed to be picking up on the oral homecare
well and was motivated to stay with it. His brushing technique
improved with each visit. I was so happy for him that he was
attempting and succeeding at quitting smokeless tobacco. I
hope that he is able to keep it up.
He was the first 3 sub patient that I saw and I was surprised
at his level of bleeding, especially considering that he smoked. I
felt that I was able to scale everything well. The anesthesia
challenges with this patient taught me a lot. Not only how to
troubleshoot, but with how to explain how the anesthesia
worked to a patient.
I saw this patient in Fall term and I feel like I have learned
a lot more since then (including taking better notes!).
