class 2

My sweet sister in law was able to come back in and see me one more time. I seen her in january but was not able to come back in tell now. that is one thing that is hard about the weber state clinic is we are not fast enough to get them all done in one appointment at first so ot takes more time out of the pts day which has kinda been a problem for some. I started of using the ultra sonic slim line it did a wonderful job I did not think I liked the ulra sonic until today because I was having problems with using it and having the right motions it does make it nice since all sides are active so you can use the front back or side. the calc came off so nice I did not even have to scale much on the lower anteiors once I was done. I ws ablr to pass of ultra sonic and universal gald to have those done. this was probably the least hard of a class two I have seen.

Today has been pretty easy I finished off my 1b so I only had one quad to do and I was trying to do it faster so I could be more on scheadule with how long it should take to clean a 1b, It took about 30 mins to scale which is a little slow from what the instructords says we should be doing it, but for me I feel that is about right so I can make sure I am doing a very good job. I did forget my very last PE at home today which is a bummer so I guess Ill be doing it on the last day of clinic. looking back I have really improved and have learned so much from the begining. I hope I dont forget it over the summer what I have learned but people say it is like riding a bike you never forget once you get the hang of it.

class 3 and 1A

Seeing two pt in one day is so crazy I keep telling myself I am never going to do it again but I think it has happened about 3 times this semester. I seen a 1A first he was so cute I was also able to do a selent on him which finished me off with all my sealents. one thing I have improved on is my sealents when I was working in the office I always had a hard time doing them I think it is cause I never knew my chair positions which helps out tons. that is one thing I would like to share with the assistants back at my office It will help them so much they wont have as much back pain. then I was able to see my class three and finish her last quad. I did it in about 45 to 60 mins I felt like this last quad way so much harder than the first three I dont know if it was because I was tired or if it was just rock hard calc. I learned alot and got everything done. yeah

CLass 3  day I was able to scale three quads today. I got to use my graces for the first time I am not so sure what I think about them they are nice that they reach into the pocket but and already have the angle set to you are not adapting as much I was also able to pass off ultra sonic sub I feel that it worked very well today I also tired using th eorangle tip the triple bend ultra sonic tip I am not sure about that one cause it was so large and hard to get into the interproximal I love the slim line cause it is so small but I can see when It is good to use the triple bend one instead to remove heavy calc.  it was also easier to know when you missed a spot cause the tissues are not so tight you can get into the col easier. but all in all it was a productive day.
