Arestin

Today was a pretty productive day... I finished a class III. She is such a doll. I have been able to see her all three semesters of clinics. She accumulates calculus really fast. I'm noticing how the rate of disease and accumulation is so different for every person. I will be encouraging her to come back for 2-3 month appointments. My next patient was a class V with a couple deep pockets that I decided to maintain her oral health we would place Arestin. I learned that I really need to angle in instrument like a probe to get to the base of the pocket. I also learned that the care for Arestin is no brushing for 12 hrs and floss normally. Good experience.
