Today in clinic it was actually pretty good. We learned how to polish, floss and brush another persons teeth. I have been polishing for a while now but never had a used a fulcrum and I need to so its kind of like if I am just starting out. I finally passed of my anterior scaling!!! YA!!! Well that was about it for today.:)

So I think that I really suck at this scaling thing I cannot seem to get it!!! Everything that has to do with adapting, angulation, and activation of something to something else I cannot seem to do. I feel so bad for every person that is my partner.:( I hurt them pretty good it is so sad. Well that was about it for clinic today.

Today in clinic we got to scale the back teeth and I actually knew how to do it! Wow, that is like a miracle since I have not been doing so good.:( I also forgot my lab coat and had to borrow Alisha's lab coat. Well that was about it!!!

Today in clinic we scaled anterior teeth again. I really enjoy scaling but i really stink at it. We switched partners with people from a different pod and I felt so bad for this person cause I hurt them pretty good. I don't understand why I stink at it so bad? I also tried to pass of my explorer PE again and I still stink at it but hopefully I at least pass it even if it's just by a bit. Well that was about it.

Today clinic was good we learned the names of all our instruments and what they are used for. We had to pass of our explorer PE and it was so hard! So I have to redo it! SAD!!!:( It's ok though because today was actually the first day that I understood how to work it. Hopefully the next time I try to pass it off I will be be semi-decent on working it. Well that was about it.:)

Today clinic was good. I got to probe on someone with out braces for the first time today and it was so much easier. We disclosed again and it seem like I have done worse than I was doing before so that bass technique obviously does not work for me!:( Well that is about it!

Today in clinic we disclosed. We all had purple and pink mouth it was really funny! We got a picture taken of us that I am sure is probably a crack up. That was about it.
