Open Wide!

Open wide! Time for impressions and x-rays. Let's start with impressions, it is not fun having it done to you but how Cherly says "that is how you will know what the patient feels in this moment", but after the pouring the result is amazing. You can display it on your trophy case,maybe! X-rays are a little complicated but they say practice makes perfect. All in all we have learned a lot up to this point, we are legit, come on we all got B's and higher on our mid-term, beat that! And that was a challenge!

Midterm!

Today we had our midterm I was really nervous about it! I think I did fine-but tests make me crazy. We are celebrating with an awesome potluck! All the students and instructors brought something yummy to share. How cool to be in a school where you do things like this. I can't wait to taste all the great food :) We are going to be working on x-rays this afternoon-I can honestly say that these are difficult!!! The placement has to be perfect so you don't get a cone cut. We will all get it soon, it just takes a lot of practice. Thankfully we can practice as much as we need to! Cheryl and Amady are super awesome when it comes to patience-if you need help you can guarantee that they are there to help you. Even if they have gone over it 100 times they will go over it 100 more! Thanks guys :)
