Lab day!

Lab day arrived where we did NOT see patients, and learned all about blood glucose levels, the diagnodent, and removable appliances.  We talked about diabetes, insulin, and all that fun stuff, and pricked our fingers to find out our blood glucose levels.  I do not like needles of any kind, size, weight, length, etc.  Yuck.  Then we did the diagnodent on each other which was fun, and learned what the "numbers" and noises mean.  It was good.  And we got to scrub and clean yucky dentures and removable appliances, so that we can be pro's when our patient's present with something that comes OUT of their mouth.  Today was a grand ole day. . relaxing and chill. . just like the 1st semester of hygiene.  Too bad I didn't realize it was "relaxing and chill" at the time.  Oops. Live and Learn.
