Practice Day

     This morning in radiology we took occlusal films.  They are pretty easy.  After we took the occlusal films we watched a super boring movie about NOMAD.  NOMAD is a portable x-ray device.  We only took one film with NOMAD this morning so I'm not so sure if I like it our not.  It seems harder to get the angulation and positions lined up and stable. 
     In clinic we had another day of practice and passing off PEs.  I was able to practice getting Plaque Free Index and instrumenting which was very nice to get more practice on those two things.  I passed off intraoral camera and Orar Hygiene Instruction PEs today.  It will be interesting to explain oral hygiene to a real patient.  Especially patients who speak Spanish.
