PFI

Today we calculated each other's PFI (plaque free index). It was a little scary! I was the patient first. We used a disclosing agent and it was not pretty. It turned my whole mouth purple! I didn't think I would be that bad but my PFI said different. I think it was 64% which Prof. Costley said was on the margin. The thing that bugged me was that my maxillary laterals were totally purple! I guess I need to take a little more time on these. My gingiva was generally healthy though. Maybe we will get to do this again and see if I improved. I also passed off my anterior instrument and adaptation and angulation PE's! Woo hoo!
