Salt Shower

Today I got to pass off the dreaded PE-- Air Powder Polish and the lucky victim was my six year old brother but boy, he was a good sport. He has a newly erupted tooth so I decided it would be wise to put a sealant on it so to prep the tooth I used the Air Powder Polish. It was quick and easy and I realized there are some skills I need to polish up on. But I passed off the PE as well as my sealant one. After I finished my brother I was asked if I could see another patient and of course, I said yes. He is a 1B and I didn't get to scaling today but I was able to take a pano, 4 BWX, and 2 PAs!!! I was elated! I scheduled him to come back as well as his mom. My afternoon patient also  told me her son is interested in coming in for a cleaning so we scheduled him an appointment- I got all sorts of patients. today. My second patient was a Class II- well at least the two quads I finished today. I missed two spots and with my instructors help I realized once again I still need to work on my adaptation. I also need to focus on using my tip as well as a light exploratory stroke before I do a working stroke. Sometimes I get a little frustrated I am not further along than I am but I learn more every day so I guess I just need more practice. Well that is today, I'll be back!
