Polish please?

Well today in clinic it was unfortunate because I have a cold sore on my lip, which means I cannot get worked on! :( I was able to learn the skill and practice on my pod partner, but I couldn't have my teeth polished! We used the air/powder polisher! It spits out water and sodium bicarbonate powder that removes stain. It is very messy but it works really well! Then we used the regular prophy cup with toothpaste and I feel like I have literally done this a million times! WE only have 3 more PE's to learn and 6 to pass off! I cannot believe we will be seeing our first patient on November 21st, that is so soon! I am getting excited to start feeling like I am a legitimate hygienist!:)
