Today I did a 17 year old and claimed him as my second 1b exam. I was able to take a pano on him because his thirds are start to come in and sometimes bother him. Another thing that was interesting about him was that he had gingivitis not from poor OH, but from heavy breathing and had pseudo-pocketing because of it. The exam went well and I'm starting to feel really comfortable with 1b patients. I've also been trying to better utilize my explorer and get better at feeling if there is calculus or not instead of just scraping every surface.
