I feel inept! I wish we could go through a couple full runs before we actually had patients because I don't even really know how to scale!! Instructor Vining did give me great help though - remember: on 1B's start with their anterior lingual that is the part that will take the most time and dry the teeth and the calculus will flake off, the enamel won't. Work from the 12 o'clock position, do everything you can then switch to 8. I think I will take my typodont home and practice the correct instrument for the correct area!
