Today I was done by nine o'clock and had time to pass off PEs! Now I only have air powder polishing to pass off:) I cleaned my patients dentures today. It was a good experience and a more layed back day. When cleaning dentures you put them in a tartar and stain remover rinse. You can scale with your instruments (toe is best). I learned that you can use the ultrasonic on the dentures but only if they really need it. I had to take part of the liner out of my patients dentures and it was very tenacious. Afterwards, you should rinse with a baking soda and water to buffer. Overall, it went pretty well. My goal for the next few weeks is to find two more quads of a class three. I have a patient that has never been in coming on Monday. So i'm crossing my fingers. I also need to get PA's and then I think I will be good to go!!! Lets hope it all works out perfectly:)
