aahhh .. Dentists !!

As the wise men have said, never go to a dentist ! ... ;) ! you feel so helpless sitting there with a bright light focussed on your teeth and almost always more than one ppl peeping into your mouth trying to figure whats wrong & where !! Worst thing ? You cant do anything about it ? In fact, you are paying them to do it !!!

The doctor always sees his/her convenience ... whenver they want to check health of your teeth, they will poke it wherever they want, they will tap it, also if they want, they scratch it, do whatever they feel like ! You want to tell them that I need a break now, just 2 minutes break, my jaw is hurting but you cant ! You want to rinse your mouth but you cant !! they make sure you cant say anything by putting 2 - 3 different metal pieces in your mouth ! I mean, its such a pathetic situation ... And the end is almost always the 'sad end' types ... they will tell you, this teeth is on the verge of a root canal or this filling needs to be redone or other comments of that type ...

Dentists are probably one of a kind .. I mean all the other doctors are on one side and the dentists are on the other ! If I have to compare them with anything, then I would compare them with the Mumbai 'Rickshaw-walas' .. We know that we need them and worse enough they know that we need them ! So they are the King of the road ... they will drive the way they want on the road, go in a one-way, create traffic jams and what not ! but still, they are there and we use them for daily travel !! Just cant do anything about it right ? Dentists are just like that !

If you are smart, you will take good care of your teeth or else be ready for the torture !!
