Class I suprise !

Today I thought I had a Class 1B, in that the child was only 13. The patient turned out to be a class II on the mandibular arch. I used my loops today for the first time and was amazed at the ability to see such a large structure. It looked like the calculus was just waiting to be seen. I was pushing my time to try to get this patient completed in one visit. As I was scaling the lower arch I was amazed at the amount of stuff I was pulling off. I think the loops will help my a lot as soon as I am more confident in the use of them and relearning to use my instruments. I was able to complete the appointment today so I did feel a success!!!
