The Dentist

Now if anyone knows me they know that going to the dentist is about one of the least favorite things for me to do,,, Yup,, even just the 6 month check ups. I hated dentists so much that at one point in my life (oh maybe about 12 or 15 years ago, I hadnt gone for about 5 years). I chipped a tooth then and was forced to find a dentist and looked through the yellow pages and found one that said "Gentle Dentistry". I thought I would give it a try. It was a woman, and she was just getting started. She and her assistant greeted me when I came in and I had to fill out a form. At the bottom was a place to add any additional comments. Mine were "I hate being here. This is the worse place on earth I could be. I am scared to death". The dentist Dr. Hubert, looked at it and said "Oh my, we will be gentle" AND,,,,,,,, she was. I no longer white knuckle it when I go but still not a favorite thing for me to do. Today was check up day. I was afraid that they were going to find something wrong, but after scraping, proding, measuring and polishing I was given a "all is good" from the dentist. Ahhhhh,,,, those words are music to my ears.

Blessings!!!
