bright smile

One thing I absolutely hate is go to the dentist! But you can't avoid them too long can you? It was 9 months since my last visit so this was over due by 3 months...so last week I booked an appointment.
Every 6 months (give or take) its a ritual...I make an appointment to be tortured...The appointments are usually two weeks in advance. In those two weeks I brush extra vigorously, floss twice a day...

But thats not the only thing I hate about going to the dentist there are plenty

They are a rip off

They stuff things in your mouth that you almost throw up

You develop a headache for the next few days

You become sensitive to hot, cold, sweet, sour...you name it!

They want you to get a million things done

This time she asked me if I want a thorough examination
Me: "No just the cleaning please"
Her: "Its almost two year since your thorough exam"
Me: "Its ok"
Her: "We have this offer...if you go for the full exam you can get your teeth whitened for $99...otherwise it costs $499"
Me: "I thought my teeth are pretty white", I try to be funny!
Her: "We can all use a little brighter smile"
I gave it a thought...whiter teeth like tubelights hmm not bad...
She is a mind reader that one. "May be you would like to think about it"
I nod my head in agreement.
She smiles she has made the kill.

"Open your mouth..." There we go an hours torcher no less!

My gradma had perfect teeth till she died at the ripe old age of 75. She never went to the dentist not once!
