Today was more of a layed back day that we could learn and pass off PE's. We read from Nield, and I learned there are six sextants in the mouth. We learned exposure control for post-appointments, and equipment maintenance. I think it is nice that we maintain and take such good care of all the equipment. We had our first real patient (student) today that we got to practice using the HVE, saliva ejector, and air water syringe. The HVE have alot more power then the ones at the office I work at. I'm sure I will get it with practice. I hope to be able to properly set-up and maintain the pod I work in. My goal for this next week is to learn all the names of the forms we will be using. Professor Costley wen't over them quickly today. Overall, It was a fun day and I learned alot!
