Today my plan was to finish Halli and to start scaling on Morgen.
I did not get Halli finished. She had to leave at 9:20 and I only got half her mouth done. I should be able to do this quicker by now!! She did have a wicked lingual bar that was caked with calculus though! How do I get faster at this?? I do not know! I don't feel like I totally understand how to do the ultrasonic so I use that very seldomly... maybe I need to get better at that.
On Morgen I scaled a quad and passed off the diagnodent PE. Woopee!! I didn't miss any spots on Morgen. YAY!! He is great to let me work on him in so many appts!! I did change something in my instrumentation that I think is going to help me. After watching instructor Caldwell I am trying to do more vertical strokes instead of oblique strokes. I feel like this is going to help out my grasp a lot!! Vertical strokes and keeping the instrument parellel to the long axis of the tooth is going to be my next goal. I think it will help me a lot!
