So, I've always loved the dentist.
Today I went to the dentist.
I did not love it.
I usually get there about 15 minutes early and read Parenting Magazine until my name is called. Today there was no Parenting Magazine. (I know I'm not a parent, but seriously it's the best magazine ever.) We were already off to a bad start.
I've always had the same hygienist, let's call her Sally (I don't know her actual name). Today, Sally walked into the waiting room and called some guy's name and took him away to clean his teeth. I was so sad.
Some other lady called my name, and as I walked with her back into the cleaning room, I walked by Sally. We passed each other in slow motion and made eye contact, saying "I wish I was there with you" Okay not really.
Anyway. This other lady was nice. But she talked really quietly and half the time I couldn't hear what she was saying so I either said "What?" "Okay" or laughed a little. Then she decided to use some tool that I've never seen before.
It was kind of like the pokey thing, but it was mechanical. It made loud squeaky noises and when she did the back teeth, it made my ears ring. I was so uncomfortable and sad the whole time.
I'm so disapointed.
But on the bright side!
Still no cavities! :)
And I got a new toothbrush, travel toothpaste, and floss!
In a Garfield bag!
Today, Mere also wrote a post about Dental Hygiene. What a coinky-dink!
Have a great day, my friends!

that pointy sharp thing is called an ultrasonic...it helps get all the gunk and plaque off your teeth.
i am sorry you had a not-so-happy experience today.
Aw! I know how you feel about having a new person work on your teeth. =( There was a woman that always worked on my teeth until I was 20 years old and then one day I came in and a new person called me back! I was not happy!
You can't just change up people like that, haha.
You were little the first time you went to the dentist, maybe 18 months. Aunt Lauren was the dental hygienist. I need to show you the picture that hung on the dentist wall because I have a copy:)
Sorry it wasn't the best dentist appointment you've had :/ but yay for no cavities! The parenting magazine is a good one!!! I read it at the doctor's office! :)
Your dentist office has nice toothbrushes, I'm so jealous! And thanks for the shoutout! :)
Your so cute- sorry it wasnt the best experience:-( I know it stinks to have a new hygienist that does something different!
Hey, that's a cute bag! It's kinda uncomfortable seeing a dentist you're not familiar with, right? It's a bit awkward at first. I hope you get along with her fine if she gets to be your dentist again. Also, getting no cavities at all is awesome. Good job!

Wow, it sounds like you had a great experience with your dentist from a young age! It's great to see the positive impact it has had on your dental health. Having a good relationship with your dentist and hygienist can make a big difference in maintaining good oral hygiene. And the prize after cleaning is a fun touch, it's always great to be rewarded for taking care of your health. Keep up the good work!
