AnTeRiOr ScAlInG!!

Anterior scaling was kind of fun today! I enjoyed learning this procedure. I was able to flick some calculus off my typodont, which I have been DYING to do. Jen and I were pod partners today. She did a very good job. I must say when it came to my turn to practice on her I was a little nervous. I didn't want to stab her with my scaler that's for sure. After a few deep breaths, I went for it. I think I did ok, but well have to ask Jen how she felt about it. I also had some time to practice my exploring and probing which I have been needing to pass off, I just have been so nervous too. I was really worried because the PE said we had to pass off a quadrant in 3 min , and I didn't think that it was possible for me to do that. I learned though they just had started the 3 min thing this year and it was just a trial. So I must say I was really relieved to find that out. It turned out I didn't have enough time to pass either of these off anyway! So I ended up having more time to practice before Wednesday.
