During my assistant training I so so dreaded these!!! There are so many instruments that are used and I could NEVER remember the order. That and every dentist is different and requests different instruments at different times. (Thankfully I went on to only work in orthodontic offices... just braces, no root canals) However, many times have I seen a yawning assistant or heard the words "Jeesh that was boring"!!
