Well as usual my patient decided to cancel out at the last moment. Isn't there a better way to get them to keep appointments? Hotels have last minute cancellation fees, so why not dental hygienists? I was able to see Ashley though. She is a four year old who has never been to the dentist and unfortunately it shows. I was able to chart her very evident bottle caries and a couple more on B and H. This was a classic textbook example of bottle caries. I wasn't able to convince her to let me do much more than look, chart and brush her teeth. I'm hoping that this will still count as a 1A patient for me. Julie Hemsley wasn't sure.
