Watch out...this could get messy

First I have to tell everyone how good my lower linguals feel thanks to Brandy! I am so happy to have all that cement off. Today was great but really messy. Julie decided to play a trick on me and push my pedal while my instrument was in my hand:) Well it got all over my glasses and jacket. But it was a great learning experience.

YaY!!

I am feeling really good about my dental hygiene test!! I am also feeling really good about instrumentation. Today we just had a practice day and I feel like my skills are getting sharper and my instruments are getting duller (ha ha) lame joke, but ne ways everything is going great.

Instrumentation

All the instruments looked the same to me when we first started this semester out. But now learning the different shanks and working ends is making sense. It would be nice if they were all the same but now I am understanding the reasoning. It would be hard to use and anterior instrument on the posterior. So I guess the bottom line is... there is a method to all this madness!!

Scaling Today!!

So today we actually started scaling each other. It was so fun, I loved it. And the best part about was that I really got some calculus off of my partners teeth. I don't know why, but I am the type of person that always needs to be doing something productive, and today I really accomplished something. I know my partner can feel the smoothness in her linguals

It's been a while

Wow I have really been slacking on my blogging duties!! Time to play catch up. Today went really good, I passed off my exploring PE (which I was very nervous about). I practiced on Steve last night and accidentally poked him (in a very sensitive area I might add). I felt so bad and it made me feel less confident about it today. But overall it was a great day!!

EXPOSED!!

So today we let it all out (Our Plaque I mean). It was so scary and I am such a dork, and I was so sleepy this morning and I didn't floss!! So needless to say, my PFI was pretty low EEEK!!! Oh well atleast I really got a chance to see how much can build up in just a day. Radiology is starting to get better, so that feels great!

Don't Mess with us when we have our MAD face on!!!


Me and My Hunny Bunny!!!

Rainy Days

So I just can't help it that all I want to do on rainy days is snuggle up and watch movies. I know I should be studying or doing homework, but I just don't see that happening. Looks like I am going to have a long Sunday and relaxing Saturday:)

LoVe LoVE LOvE

I just love how everyone in the program is so supportive of each other. We are all struggling a little in some way right now, and I love it that everyone is always willing to help and they do it with a smile. I always feel so much better when I am surrounded with my fellow DH gals.
Thanks a lot girls!!!
