Oh goodness! I cannot tell you just how excited I am to have
today, and this weekend over. I have seen more children then I know what to do
with. I saw 5 children today alone and I've got to say, I'm getting pretty good
at it. I hope without this children's health fair going on that we will soon
again eat lunch. The children that I saw today were more like 2 1B's and 3
1A's. My problem area is really the lower linguals. I think they intimidate me.
Usually, this is where I spend my most time. I have been working on doing what
I can and think is good until I get a scale check and it all goes down the
drain because I missed one on every tooth. This next week, I'm going to try to
figure out a system to getting them clean and fast. Today was my second day
using my loupes and I have got to say, I LOVE THEM! How did I work without
them?! The teeth are so little when I'm not looking through them. Also, they
help me a lot with my adaptation around the tooth, who would've thought? It was
overall a stressful, bitter- sweet day. I am excited to see new adult patients.
ps. If our quads start to count for 'real' clinic, I will be covered in children up to my eyes! I will have seen enough for myself, my peer pal, and her peer pal. It has been a crazy couple of weeks!
