I'm Back!

Wow..i can't believe the break is already over and today is the first day of clinic! Weirdy magee! Today was pretty chill, especially since we didn't have to see a patient today! We went over info on area-specific curets, ultrasonics, and how to chart certain classifications. I still feel pretty comfortable using the ultrasonic, but it was weird picking up an instrument again. We practiced with our graceys for a little bit and it took some time for me to get used to it again. I still struggle with what end to use and how much pressure to apply. I also need to get better at detecting calculus and recognizing the difference between that and anatomy of the teeth. Overall, it was a good day and i'm glad to be back...i think!
