ERGOMOMICS!

Today was all about ergonomics! We even used real instruments.. granted it was only on our typodont but it was still quite enjoyable!  It's hard to remember all the rules, the correct grasp of instruments (very difficult to get used to when you are double jointed), the correct position of your char, your patient, and the light, plus remembering to keep a firm fulcrum.  A lot to remember, but eventually I'm sure it will become second nature.  I'm definitely going to take my typodont and tools home so I can practice.  I especially need to work on using my mirror...  Can't wait to see what we'll do next time!
