25 minutes my BUTT!!

I tried to finish my 1B patient in 25 minutes today. It took me 45 minutes to finish her!! That is double the time limit. I still missed two spots of calculus too, and I think if I would have slowed down I would not have missed them. GRR... Luckily, Instructor Vining made me feel a lot better about it. He said that he has no worries about me going into second year clinic. He told me that he was in the same boat that I am in now, and that my time will continue to decrease. That makes me feel tons better.

1A!!

Yay!! Today I got some bitewings, a PANO, all my sealant requirements, and a 1A patient done! I love productive days. My patient had soooooooooooo much calculus though! It was crazy! She was super wiggly and did not want to keep her mouth open, it was definitely a challenge. On the bright side, I only missed one spot of calculus, which is good! I wish everyday was as productive as today!
