Entries tagged with “Patients” from Going Dental
Part of the challenge of dental school is completing your requirements in a timely fashion. What makes the challenge great, is the variety of patients being admitted to the school. In addtion, there is a mysterious force that seems to bring the same type of patient to the same doctors over and over.
It may be better stated that the force seems to keep certain procedures from some doctors. I have completed many crowns, and much opperative dentistry. I have scheduled my removable prosth requirements. Why is it that I have yet to treatment plan any Class III restorations or anterior endodontic procedures? The patients to which I have the privledge of caring for simply do not need it. This goes for some of my collegues as well, who may have yet to complete a single unit of fixed prosth.
Is there a solution to fight this mysterious force? Yes, there is, and it is called the "admitting overflow signup sheet". After realizing that I was behind in units, I have made it my mission to sign my name at least three times a week on the overflow sheet. That has netted me about one new patient every two weeks, and allowed me to begin to finish my removable prosth requirements. Hopefully, I will soon be able to say that I am working on my senior requirements.
