Dentist Visit in 9 minutes
Got off work and went straight to the dentist. I sat for about 15 seconds in the waiting room until the called my name.
I went with the lady who's cleaned my teeth since I got teeth and she x-rayed them. I asked her about the x-ray machine, and then we proceeded to the 'chair'. She tilted me back and began scraping my teeth, all the while asking me questions and almost expecting me to respond even though she has 7 fingers in my mouth.
She finishes the bottom row and notices the dentist walk past. She says, "Greg, can you check him?"
"Yeah, okay."
She takes off her gloves and says, "He's going to check you, I'll be back in 5 minutes to finish up." The dentist then comes in and begins his check. He asks if I've had any trouble, I clearly have not. He says, "Whelp, nothin' new. You're good to go."
A different lady comes in and removes my bib, rights the chair and gives me a toothbrush, floss and paste. She gives me a bunch of papers and says, "Give these to the ladies at the desk on your way out. Everything looks great."
I look at the papers, then at my new toothbrush, smile at the lady and say, "Thank you very much." I got lost on the way out, of course, but I was done.
9 minutes. No joke. While I didn't get all of the cleaning I was supposed to, can't I just clean them myself?
