Day two in Marcy's mouth.

On Wednesday I finished treatment with Marcy. I can not believe that they are going to trust us with real patients in a month and a half! I am so not ready!!

Today we went through OHI again, did a sealant, and dedicated the rest of the time on scaling and using the ultra sonic. Time flew by for me. I'm sure you would get a different story if you talked to Marcy though. It is really hard to keep your mouth open for that long!

I hadn't got any scaling done on Monday so I had the whole mouth ahead of me when I started on Wednesday. I scaled my first quad and missed some calculus that was impossible to get off!! I used just about every instrument that I had trying to get that off, I'm not sure if it is all gone either. I was super slow again today and only got finished with her whole mouth because I used the ultra sonic on most of her mouth. Is that ok?? I'm not sure the about the rational of the ultra sonic.. when to use it, how much to use it, and that stuff. I did learn that on recession it is not a good thing to use! I sent Marcy through the roof!! I feel so bad!!

So, I didn't feel good about how things went on Wednesday either... I just wanted to move away to Mexico when I was finished..... I didn't though, I'm still here. I'm not sure how I feel about it though. I guess this stuff is supposed to get easier sometime... when is that going to be????

Not excited to try to do something that I don't know how to do again on Monday. Ugh.
