Put your hands on..


I love clinic days! We learned so much today. We took x-rays using film in radiology class today. We don't get to use ORA rings (an aid to make sure that you don't miss the x-ray shot) while taking bitewings like we do at the office I work at, so it was a challenge for me! My x-rays actually turned out pretty good though! I forgot how much longer it takes to use film than it does to use digital. I am spoiled at work! (thank you Dr. Iverson) While practicing my PE check off with Michelle, I kept telling her that I was going to put my hands on instead of saying that I was going to put my gloves on, duh...I can tell my brain is on overload. In clinic we learned the different position that we need to sit in while working on different areas of patients' mouths. I think we all caught on very quickly! It already feels comfortable to me, so I am so excited. I can't wait to learn more!
