More REQUIREMENTS!?!

So, I just found out this week that there are more requirements that I haven't done or even thought I needed to do.  My advice to the incoming 2nd year students is to print out the syllabus and read it again in the spring semester.  I just found out that of the 36 quads of a class III/IV, 4 quads HAVE to be a class IV.  Did not know that!  Maybe I did in the fall, but forgot as time went on.  So this is what I found out I still have to do:
2 oral irrigation experiences
2 diagnodent experiences
2 desensitization experiences
4 quads of a class IV

I had a class V come in this morning and got him done in about an hour and 15 minutes.  I had to present at NCUR today with my table clinic group.  This afternoon I was going to pass of my right/left ultrasonic tip PE and do oral irrigation.  My patient no showed so that left me with not much to do.  Marianne was sweet enough to let me scale her teeth a little and use the diagnodent.  The diagnodent in clinic stinks.  It doesn't calibrate correctly, so really it doesn't work.  I will need one more experience with it so my plan is to use it on Trevor when he comes in for a sealant next week.  Poor guy!  I am passing off the Velscope and Air Powder Polisher PE, using the diagnodent and placing a sealant.  I think I used the air powder polisher on him last year as well to pass off a PE.  Thanks honey for letting me torture you each time you come in.
