A Few Needling Problems
Dentist, UK | Healthy | October 27, 2017
(I have an appointment with the dentist.)
Dentist: “Okay, please sit down and we will get to it!”
(I sit down and she looks in my mouth. I see a syringe just out of my view.)
Me: “What’s the syringe for?”
Dentist: Don’t worry. It won’t hurt a bit, and then we can get to work.”
Me: “No, what is the syringe for?”
(She sticks her thumb in my mouth, feeling my gums. She lifts the syringe and I push hard against her.)
Dentist: “What’s wrong? We won’t be able to get that tooth out unless you’re numbed up!”
Me: “I’m not getting a tooth out!”
Dentist: *angry* “THEN WHAT ARE YOU HERE FOR?!”
(I don’t answer and just leave the room. As I leave the building I see her running up to me.)
Dentist: “Oh, you’re my 11 am! I can do your whitening. I’ll just need to get set up.”
Me: “I’m not letting you near my mouth again!”
(I registered with another dentist that week.)
