Air Powder Polisher and Sealants

I was excited to use the air powder polisher. As I used it on the penny I thought it was amazing. I was excited to see what it could do on a tooth, but I must be honest--- it was a little painful. I wasn't quite expecting it to work that way. I know that to remove stain you do need to use something quite abrassive, so as I think about it I know that it wasn't as abrassive as it could be.
The sealants went well. I didn't think that I had put as much sealant on as I did, but it did take a while to get it down to where it wasn't hitting wrong.
All in all, it was a good day and I feel like I learned a lot. I was also able to pass off a couple of PE's which went well and I was grateful to have two more out of the way and done. There are only a couple more in my binder. As I look back at everything that we have done I can't believe it. This semester has gone by so fast.
I don't feel like I am even close to perfect yet, but I know that I am better and less awkward than I was at the beginning of the semester.
