air powder polishing

I have decided that air powder polishing isn't so much fun. It actually stings and it is not comfortable at all. It also gets all over everything. It is not my favorite; I think I would rather use the prophy cup and prophy paste to polish. It wasn't too difficult though so it was alright. I got to pass off my universal intruments and my eaglesoft walkout PE. I thought the universal instrument PE was more difficult for me. I need to work on getting in the proximal areas and making sure my working stroke has enough pressure. Today started a little slow, we had to wait for the air powder tips to get out of the sterilizer. I thought that after the first part of class I was productive though. Hopefully next time we can start and have everything ready.
