So I went with my mentor for the last time last week. When I got there my mentor and the dentist were already working on a patient so I waited in the back until they finished. When they were done, my mentor asked me to help set up for the next patient. They were getting a root canal so she didn't really have to set up much. After that patient left. The dentist asked me if I could assist her with sanitizing the tools. After I was done, I went back with my mentor and just started talking about what she's doing to further her career in the dentist industry. She's been a dental assistant for 6 years now and still isn't tired of it. That's when I began to wonder if dental assisting was the right choice for me. I want to be doing something I love for the rest of my life not something I'm going to hate doing. After our talk we got back to work and she began setting up for the next patient. While they worked on the patient I ran downstairs to get their mail. When they were done they told me to watch the phone and welcome patients which concludes my last day with my mentor.
