    I've realised I know people on MSE and a few of their real names via facebook but no idea on twitter who people are if they're not using MSE usernames or if I don't know their real name:confused::confused:

    No chance Maz....am starting to doubt whether I shall even get around. This stupid cold/head thing is only just starting to come to a head a week later and I desperately need to get out there and run and to be honest I feel utter carp. Supposed to be doing 16 miles on sunday :eek:

    It's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
    We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
    Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.

    They learn on 'phantom heads'

    some of these are so good that the material mimics very closely the behavior of real bone.

    Once they have their competence they will do extractions under the close supervision of a superior sometimes on patients who are under full general anaesthetic in the dental hospital.
