Finishing up Maries Cleaning
I had lots of ideas today. I wanted to clean all four quadrants of maries teeth, which I already proved to myself I am able to accomplish. I also wanted to pass off my sealant, diagnodent, and explorer PE's. Reality set in and things turned out a bit differently. I passed off an entirely different PE than I had intended, and didnt get to the PEs I had expected to pass off. My Errors were- Supra: 19M,26M,27MD,28D; Sub:14M,15M I obviously need to develop a greater awareness of which instruments will clear calculus deposits more effectively. I really need help on cleaning canines...their anatomy can make it so difficult to clean them effectively. Im still not sure about what instrument is best to use there. I dont like using the nebraska or nevi there. Goal: Ask for help finding an instrument or position more conducive to cleaning cuspids and to improve in those areas.
