learned how to do class 1, class 2, class 3, and class 5 preps. In addition, we also learned how to do amalgam and composite fillings, even though amalgam is being phased out and the filling of choice is composite. Composite tends to be used in a person's mouth in places where a person needs to look good asthetically. For instance, composite might be better to use on a person's anterior teeth, while amalgam can be better on a person's posterior teeth. This class taught us how to hold a drill…

readers' attentions. Especially, the following sentence "My childhood was chock-full of nitrates, sodium, and an amalgam of four-legged animals chopped and cured into uniform cuts of salty goodness that was inexpensive, easy to heat, and lasted for damn near forever..." leads readers to be sympathetic.
