Other dentists say the usual ‘This
won’t hurt at all’ or ‘I’m almost finished’. Although you know that it’s
absolutely not true, you let yourself be fooled a little into believing it
because hope keeps you going.
But not so with my dentist. He
believes in telling it like it is. ‘Brace yourself, this will hurt.’, ‘You have
to bear with it because it will take another half an hour to finish.’, etc. are
sentences he routinely says nonchalantly.
Once, just as I was sitting down in
‘The Chair’, he even said, ‘Make yourself comfortable because once I start the
work I’ll only stop after it’s done and that will take around an hour.’ !
Err… ‘Make yourself comfortable…’
??? In ‘The Chair’ ???!!!!
My dentist’s a funny chap.
