I got the internship by going to lorens dentist appointment. I saw how friendly the workers were and i thought "WOW I NEED TO BE HERE!" because it was so friendly so i kept in contact with the doctor and set up an internship.
I went to trader joes for lunch but i couldnt find anything so i just ate popcorn and some chocolate milk. which is horrible because popcorn in your teeth is like a dentist nightmare. but whatever because i didnt even get to eat it cuz my mom let me drive! so i didnt eat anything, but right after my dad took me to this vietnamese place next door with the best noodle vermicelli pork stuff. oh my gosh it was to die for i need to go there every tuesday!
After this my dad took me to the school to wait for my mom for an hour to pick me up and take me home i actually just got home because my mom made a few pit stops.
Everything went great today, i got to assist a little and learn everything. Today i got to pass a UV light thingy to the dentist so that it could bond the tooth colored solution filling by drying it fast. got to pass the dentist a mirror to so he could pass it to the client. I got to watch him put bridges in and analyse some crowns and stuff. I got to look at x rays and analyse them with the doctor and the patient. I eventually can take the x rays myself! im excited. Yeah today was great i had a lot of fun and i cant wait for thursday!
HIGHLIGHT OF EVERYTHING I LEARNED TODAY:
a woman came in to have her teeth look nice to impress her boyfriends mother. Dr.stevens looked in her mouth and pointed to a bridge. he immediatly said "WHAT COUNTRY DID YOU GET THIS DONE IN" and she replied "AFGANISTAN" its crazy by looking at something he could tell it wasnt how we do things in america. it was because the crown had a gap in it and nobody in america would ever do that because it leaves so much space for bacteria to build up. today was pretty awesome
