Goal: finish all 4 quads of patient, have no retakes on X-rays.
Well I am excited to say that I met my goal! I got my patient finished in one appointment and decided to have him be my 1A exam. I also did better taking x-rays today and did not have any retakes which makes me happy. I decided that I like the digital better than the conventional mainly because it saves quite a bit of time. Developing takes way too long, especially if retakes need to be done. I realized that I really like using my 135 for posterior scaling, it seems to do a good job and seems to get more interproximal as compared to some of the other instruments. My only trouble today was indirect vision. It is so hard and still feels really akward for me, especially the lower and upper anterior lingual. Hopefully one day it will just click. I was also able to complete 7 sealants today. I never thought that I would have to do that many at the same time but it went good overall, and I remembered how to do them. Overall I felt more confident today and feel like I am getting the hang of things more and more every day.
