I Hate

going to the dentist! I just don't like it one bit! I still go because I know it's all a part of the plan to keep my teeth healthy but it really freaks me out when I have to go. So today was the dreaded visit to the dentist. They seemed much busier than usual today so I waited about 30 minutes before I could be seen by the dental hygienist. I was kind of glad that they were busy because I kept thinking that maybe my cleaning time would be shortened. (ha!) After perusing several magazines, I was finally called into the death chamber (lol). It might as well be called that for me because I hate even just getting into the room. I know that once I'm in the room I'll have to sit in that dreaded chair where they push my head back so low that it might as well be touching the floor. Seriously, how much further can they put our heads back in those chairs? I hate that chair! I also hate when the dentist/hygienist sit down and lean all the way over me (hello..claustrophobic here, please do not lean into me so much!). Okay, I know it's all a part of their job but haven't they been to the dentist? Do they like going? I honestly cannot say that I've met one person yet who likes to go to the dentist. Do they not realize how dreaded this whole experience is and how nervous it makes us feel? I mean it's like torture, well not completely but it's no fun. Then after the whole gruesome experience is over they give you the verdict: You will need to consult with a oral surgeon to schedule removing your wisdom teeth! Could this experience get any worse? Yes, weeks later when they send you a hefty bill.
