The hygiene visit
Mrs Patel, your nine-thirty, is a nervous patient at the best of times. Today, instead of the scaler she's been dreading, you paint Magic 3 onto her teeth and gums, slip a face mask on her, and let her relax for ten minutes. She listens to the radio. You catch up on notes. When you brush and rinse at the end, her gums have stopped bleeding and she's smiling. She rebooks before she leaves.
