Anna Pattison's Burnished Calculus Webinar
Burnished Calculus: How to Avoid It, How to Remove It &
Update on Advanced Instrumentation
Able to learn more by going at my own pace
There are not enough words to share how grateful I am and how lucky we are to have a true example of what it means to be an exceptional professional, like yourself who gives back to her community on all levels. I have had the pleasure to attend your course in SF a few years ago and now this live webinar. I loved both, but I honestly felt like I was able to learn more by going at my own pace, being able to rewind and replay segments, etc. Your courses are top notch and I always learn a great deal.

Game-changer in my professional career
This seminar was a game-changer in my professional career. Having an instrument routine, the information about furcations, the close-up videos, scaling a painted tooth, it all made so much sense! And the support she gives - itās amazing. Iām currently working at an FQHC in Indianapolis, and the IU dental hygiene students do a community health rotation with us. I reference the Pattison Institute all the time, since most of our patients have at least some degree of periodontal disease. I plan on taking the course again next year. Thereās always something new to learn in our profession, and having the best in the business sharing her expertise is an outstanding opportunity to grow and improve our skills.

Importance of having diverse instruments
Thank you so much for this entire course. I've been an RDH for 25+ years and I learned about so many instruments I have never used. I don't think there's enough emphasis put on instrumentation continuing education. It's the bread and butter of what we do and often we stop learning about it after we leave hygiene school.Ā This was an excellent way to learn. It really drives home the importance of having a diverse amount of instruments bagged and sterilized in a drawer so they are there when you need them. Or you'd have to have one pretty big cassette!!!!

I can watch at my own pace
I just completed the whole webinar in one day. I learned so much, thank you. I have been to your seminar in NEW YORK CITY several years ago and learned a lot there too but I have to admit I love the online seminars more because I can watch at my own pace, I don't have to get all dressed up, I don't have to travel and I can take all the breaks I need. I hope you never stop online seminars.Ā Thank you for helping those like me whose TIME is so limited to complete our CE.
