I’ve had so many fingers and weird devices shoved in my mouth (and teeth removed) over the years — wait, I didn’t mean that quite like that came out! — that my strongest emotion while there is “God, this is tedious.” Followed by “It’s over. And, yay, my teeth are smooth again!” That said, I need to make an appointment sometime soon. Crooked teeth (even after all sorts of orthodontia!) and tartar-proneness are not a good combination. Thanks for the reminder. Ah, dentistry.
