a journey of a starless night

i had a patient this afternoon
took xray of his lower right back teeth after he complained of pain on chewing. i thought it was secondary caries but no luscency found in the radiograph.

i took the wrong xray actually. didn't know that there is specific xray holder to shoot periapical region. i took bitewing instead. when i showed it to her, she said, "kenapa amik bitewing? kan saya suruh amik PA."

the lecturer in charge asked me to proceed with scaling. while i was doing my job, she said to me, "nanti saya nak tulis dalam logbook, "student degil. tak dengar arahan." lain yang saya suruh, lain yang awak buat".

i just smiled to her. dalam hati, sabar ajela....

i did full mouth scaling when she said "tak siap scaling lagi? kan sikit je...". she meant that i did scaling on that particular area only. how should i know?....

i proceeded to do class I amalgam restoration on buccal pit of 48. only a minor cavity. the caries was arrested. no need to explore further.

went to the lab to build model for yesterday's patient. didn't manage to do special tray. hadn't perform Asar and it was almost 6pm. so, i went back. bought iced tea and cekodok pisang on the way back.
