The Ball, she is rolling!

Last week, I unsuccessfully tried to start my senior project presentation. For my presentation, as agreed on by my mentor, I will explain the mouth, its diseases, what people can do to prevent them, etc, but I will also perform a root canal and an extraction; two pretty common procedures I've witnessed from my in Dr. Okon's office. I started, with the help of Mr. D, to mix two plastic mold materials to make a mold of both mine and Briana Woodruff's teeth, and Mr. D put clay into into the mold of my teeth and, to my dismay, it wasn't very flattering and really couldn't be used to serve my purpose. I then made a bigger mold of all my teeth, to really capture the detail of each tooth, and will make a clay mold of it soon.

It sounds like your project is really shaping up, and you're beginning to "bite" into the work for the presentation. Are you going to use actual dental tools for the extractions?
