Answer:

Genu varum, and can likely be treated by bracing

Explanation:

Genu varum is a condition resulting from the deformity of the varus around the knee whereby the lower leg is bowed inwardly causing the medial malleoli to touch, and as a result presents an appearance of the legs forming a bow shape. This condition could be caused by various factors ranging from leg infections to skeletal problems which hinders the proper formation of bones. Children are prone to such structural deviation from normal bone alignment from birth.

A likely treatment for this condition is the use of corrective leg braces.

Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

I would explain to her how the two procedures work, explain the benefits of each, and ask her to watch while I manipulate the procedures, paying attention to how all the processes are done.

Explanation:

If the new dental assistant does not know how to do the procedures correctly, the ideal is that she is taught, so that she does not do anything incorrect, harming the client, or causing problems to the equipment and materials. For this, it is important that a more experienced professional, explain to the new assistant how these procedures work, in a very detailed way, and make a demonstration asking her to observe the entire procedure very carefully and if possible make notes that may help her to memorize how the procedure should be performed.
