English Allow the FD some time to get used to the dental chair and high-speed handpiece before seeing patients. Some non-UK dental schools use electric motor high-speed handpieces and not compressed air-based systems; the two systems feel different. The FD will need time to practice and adjust to a compressed air-driven handpiece. Setting up extracted teeth to practice on or securing access to a phantom head would be a helpful induction activity to run with the FD. Your TPD should be able to advise and support if necessary.
