We learned in school what a filing setup looks like.
And then we started working in a practice.

It's not the same. Every dentist has their favorite tools and composite.
You need to talk to the dentists and ask how the setup should be done. Correctly.

Don't assume you know, or that someone told you the right way. They might be wrong. Set it up, then ask the dentist to double-check it. Ask if it is how they want it. You may have too much out, even though you always get it out. Maybe they don't want it anymore or realize they don't use it. Adjust. Don't ever say "it's how we've always done it". Be ready to adjust.

I need some advice! Share a setup tip you use to stay on top of your game as a dental assistant and dental nurse?

I feel like sometimes I understand what the patient is trying to say sometimes more than the doctor. The suction and drill are so loud.

Do you work in ear/hearing protection?
It’s definitely something I think about.

I am talking to Britany. We talk about her life as a dental assistant and how she bounced around a lot. As many of us have, She finally found her passion after 6 years.
She's working with veterans and volunteering when she can. She also talks about issues she has seen with assistants, and how she overcomes them.

Listen and let me know hat you think.

We have a few tests that seem a little wonky.

But they are working great! I’m gonna put them back in rotation.

I did label them with a # and date. Im going to monitor if/when there is a fail with the tray.

Have you tested your trays?
