Positioning our instruments!

Today was a little stressful getting the correct positions and knowing what position to be in for scaling and holding the mirror.  I learned that 12 and 10 o' clock are away from you and 8 and 9 o' clock are towards you.  It is going to take some practice to get the hang of how to hold the instruments correctly.  "Stacking" is how we are to hold the instruments correctly. All our fingers have to be together and not separated and stack on top of each other in the correct way.  I am going to take my typodont home today and practice!  It was really enjoyable today but stressful to remember what positions are what.  I am really excited to practice and get better!
