Today we learned how to properly use the explorer to check for calculus. It was a little scary to go under the gums using this pointy tool...but it was a lot easier to insert than the probe. I didn't get to pass off any PE's today but I plan on studying the intra-oral exam to pass it off on Wednesday. Our pod instructers rotated today and we now have Prof. Costley. I was really nervous to have her with our group, but she was very helpful to all of us and I'm very glad we have her for the next few weeks.
