My First X-Rays!!!


I am just so excited! On monday I got to take my first x-ray of some teeth. They are called bitewings. It's the kind where you have to bite down on those awkward cardboard things that cut your gums. I used to hate them because of how uncomfortable they are but now I love them because I am on the other side, I am the one giving them! We got to practice on a dummy named Dxter. They are these rubber heads with real human teeth. They are incredibly creepy looking but so fun to use! I feel like a real dental assistant. So exciting!!!
