Polish

Today we disclosed, then brushed 1/2 the mouth with the toothbrush, then the other 1/2 with the propy head. I was able to find out what it is like to be cleaned using the brush around the brackets. Anna did a great job! Flossing takes a long time to do. One of the teachers gave Anna a filamented pick to try between the teeth at the gumline instead of using floss. It was great and quite a bit faster! It was also interesting to find out that the fluoride that we have been using at work can be undermining the sealants and composit fillings of the patients that we have been using it on. This is a little concerning to me. Great day in Lab!
