This was such a rewarding case. I gained a better understanding
of process of care, patient management, and worked on refining my
skill. After looking at the patients radiographs, I realized my GM
recordings were off & do not reflect the perio status of the
patient. I believe this is due to my inexperience at the time. The
6 week re-evaluation was wonderful. The patient gained some
attachment and I was unable to accesses the previously found
furcations. The was also noticeable improvement to the color and
contour of the gingiva. The patient also had a lowered plaque index
score and was continuing recommended home care. It was such a great
feeling seeing how my treatment and instruction, can make a
difference.
