CA duty and *hopefully* a complete 1B!

I have yet to complete a patient in one appointment, so my clinic goals for this clinic session are;

1) Complete my 1B patient in one appointment.
2) Pass off Instrument Sharpening PE & 1 other PE.
3) Not be too tired after being CA in the AM to reach my goals in the PM.

*after*

Being CA was actually not too bad! I was ready to go after it and did pass off my instrument sharpening and CA PEs! I didn't finish my 1B in one appointment, so she will have to come back on the 29th.

This was certainly a learning experience for me! She had extreamly mal-positioned teeth and calculus that just would not come off! Instructor demings taught me to use the spoon end of my Barnhart to get calculus off the straight lingual, so that was awesome. I got through the OD and got to scale 2 quads on her, and for how tough the calculus was I'm really happy with that :)
