HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

Happy Halloween! Today we did sealants and can I just say something so simple I can make very difficult! Today has been such a mess. I'm so scatter brained I think I just need to go home and sleep. I think Im so exhausted I can function right. Hopefully tomorrow will go a little better!

10/26

Today I passed of my IntraOral Camera and we learned how to do selective polishing and air powder polishing which I don't think I like at all. It makes a huge mess, ,tastes gross and is a bit painful. NOT a fan!

Monday 10/24

Today we learned how to enter a patient into eagle soft which is a lot of info to do. I also passed off my OHI and Dental Screening! Yay! I get so excited seeing all my PE's getting done I don't have to many more to do!

universal curette

I passed off my universal curette! I was told I did very well and seemed comfortable with it. Hooray! Finally something I did well at! I think it all is coming slowly but surely.

sickle scaler

I'm a little behind but I am now going to catch up! I have passed off my sickle scaler! I didn't do to bad I just need to gain more confidence, and work on my indirect vision. but I'm happy with that. Can't complain.

scaling skills

Today was a bit frustrating! we learned how to do our anterior scaling which I'm way excited about but so frustrating to stay at the right angles and be aware of patient comfort. Lucky I have an awesome pod that are very forgiving! I also passed off my probing PE and I think I did ok except for going over on the time limit. So intimidating though to have to have the instructors examine all our stuff and make sure we got accurate measurements. I definitely will be practicing this weekend!
