Once our time in the dental teaching clinic had to be put on pause due to covid, it was really hard to think about how much it would affect the skills we had built for months in regards to working with patients. Just when we would become more comfortable and our skills would improve, it always felt as if we were pushed back to step 1 due to the many interruptions we were faced with. However, that being said, the covid workbooks that have been introduced to us have been extremely useful in regards to helping us maintain our critical thinking and problem solving skills concerning different patients and their individual cases. The discussions we have with our mentors allows us to gain an insight on their own unique experiences and perspectives which will be of great help to us when faced with similar situations next year.
