Less dirty
Studying
This afternoon I visited my dentist.
“Do you remember the woman with the scarf who used to be my assistant?” he asked.
“Yes,” I answered.
“She is now studying to become a dentist.”
He said it with a sense of pride.
I opened my mouth and after fifteen minutes the dentist declared: “It’s less dirty than last time.”

What a horrible picture.
Needles, I hate them. But for some reason I do not fear the dentist. What I cannot see … etcetera.

lees net je boek Grunberg rond de wereld. Nu was het even de tandarts in Amsterdam. Ben benieuwd wat het wordt: Gibraltar waar je degelijk ondergoed en geruite petten kunt kopen of Birma waar de doodstraf veel wordt toegepast.
You should get a dentist in NY.
This is disgusting. My sister is a dentist, I guess she's even more repressed than I am.
I like dentists. I've tried a couple in my lifetime, b ut I always retreat to the one I started with. Once I had a dentist who worked for free. He worked quickly and looked very clean; Due to this man I almost lost a tooth.

That's funny. I also hate needles but I am not afraid of the dentist.I think needles in your veins are unnatural. Pain is natural.

I'm sorry to hear it does.@Coen
Yes, needles in veins are my absolute horror too. I even faint when I see one in another person.
