So the 1st week was eventful. I finally got to know how it feels to be a dentist. Its a pain in your back!
I did 2 hand scalings which was pretty gross. I could not have ever in my life imagined people have such bad oral hygiene. It was just sick. But then we had the funny weird patients to keep us entertained. Michall's patient went to sleep while she was doing the scaling. =P And when she asked him how many packs do you smoke in a day because she saw the pack in his packet the idiot said 'i don't smoke doctor sahiba i juts keep them in my pocket!' Imagine.
Yet another patient came with grossly carious teeth and horrific stains. So this house officer asked him to quit smoking because then the scaling wont be any good and that it was harming his teeth aswell. He spoke back to her and said 'i smoke so much, meray keeray to jal jaana chahye'
That was like the height of it.
So yeh all in all not all that bad so far!
