I am a hygienist...sortof

Today Molly got to be my mock patient. Everything went relatively well until I found out that I don't actually know how to scale teeth. It is fun anyway though. Molly was very nice to me. I love having smart patients who can give good feedback. I wish all of my patients were that knowledgeable.

Molly the amazing hygienist-A poem by leigh for molly

Molly was my hygienist today.
She made it all seem like play.
She was so grand.
She had it all planned.
The probing just flew by.
The only thing that would have made it better is pie.
OHI I learned so much.
Brushing, flossing, caries, all before lunch.
The purple was gone before I could count to three.
And she was so nice saying "great job Leigh"
It was so much fun I will be back for sure.
To hang out with Molly Wednesday I don't even need a lure.

Love Wednesdays

Today was great. Way more relaxed than Monday. Learned how to sharpen instruments. Got to take 4BWX on someone other than Dex. Only one more PE left for this class this semester. Almost to mock patient day. It's a good feeling. Also raced Karen down the hall on our chairs, got a cookie, and a tooth carved from a bar of soap, awesome.

Nice and rushed, just the way we like it.

It's so much fun having one instructor that has to be in 12 places at once. It's also fun being the student waiting for them. Today was a little bit hectic. Me and Julie were speeding away at sealants. She is a pro sealant applicator. It was pretty much a party in the corner. Good times. I like sealants a lot actually. They are fun. Air/powder, not so much fun just salty.
