DENTAL HEALTH EDUCATION
The patient has been taking good care of her mouth since she had her crowns placed and she flosses daily. So I will just re-enforce good brushing technique with her and show her how to use her power toothbrushes (rota-dent and sonicare) to clean her teeth properly especially in the areas where she has crowns, because this is more than likely the reason for her higher than satisfactory BOP and MBI scores.
RATIONAL FOR CASE SELECTION AND GOALS
I decided to choose this patient because she has many crowns in her mouth and I think that she could benefit from good oral hygiene instructions on how to clean the areas in her mouth with restorations.
The Goals for this patient include helping her to maintain good oral hygiene, learn more ways to care for he restorations, and complete a full mouth scale on her.
