Today I was able to learn how to sharpen my instruments properly regardless of the terminal shank length or type of scaler. It was a simple concept, but challenging to put into action. The degree you had to hold the stone or the instrument in order to obtain the sharpest cutting edge was difficult to master. It will take much practice in order to understand how to do it completely. I plan on doing it free hand without actually sharpening (or ruining my insturments).
I also learned how to fast walk out my patient's Tx. This was a simple concept to learn and to do. I have a lot of experience walking out patients in the office I worked for. This is just a different way to do it. I felt very confident that I would be able to do this with no problems.
Today I was also able to pass off my air powder polish, sealants, and fluoride PEs. What a fulfilling day!
