Grinding Molds

I am really starting to really appreciate the staff at the office. They are all so nice and especially Suzan. She's probably 55+ years old and she is as energetic as a child. She always has something witty and funny to say which can make a boring shift an enjoyable one. Todays special assignment was to work with Suzan on the molds. She is what is known as the offices dental technician. She works on things like molds and adjusting invisalign sets. I got to pour a mixture in to a mold which would then solidify and become a model of the patients teeth. Once the model was hard there is a lot excess mold that needs to be grinded off. She let me grind of the excess with this tool that is essentially a grinding tool. This was pretty cool and I enjoyed doing it.
