  • wheres the fulcrum?

  • OH

    MY

    GOD

    she doesn't even have a fulcrum! if the patient was to move his head, BAM. she would but him up! always fulcrum in the same quadrant you are working in. no matter what the procedure is!!!

    & she isn't wearing goggles. or a mask. & the patient doesnt have goggles either. in my experience, coronal polishing gets messy. i would never want to perform this without my full barriers.

    shame on this video.

see all

  • you are a "dentistry professional?" WOW! There are so many things that are wrong with what you are doing. No mask, no eyewear, no eyewear on patient, the patient is sitting upright and should be down, and you have no fulcrum. You were courageous to make this video. I would be humiliated if I were in your shoes.

  • What's fulcrum?

    

  • i guess she didn't think she needed a mask cuz she wanted to talk???

  • Yuck ... No safety glasses or mask. And the speed of the hand piece sounds like it is too high?...

  • n safety glasses????????

  • wheres her MASK!!??

  • QUESTION! In school, when I'm polishing, I have trouble making a mess or myself and the client. How can I make sure none of the prophy paste sprays?

  • @MsDZire yes there is... and extra oral fulcrum

  • I really hate that sound
