Fresh Enough to Freeze Ice Cream

Let’s face it. Going to the dentist isn’t on our top ten list of fun things to do. I mean, who enjoys mouthfuls of goop and having their lips stretched to accommodate an oversized x-ray?

There are a few of us, though that love going to the dentist, even if a procedure or two is slightly uncomfortable.

“Who are these people?” you might ask.

Well, take me, for instance. Recently, I had my teeth cleaned by the lovely and charming Pamela, the hygienist at McBride Dental. While she scraped at the years (yes, I said years…bad me!) of hardened plaque off my teeth, I can’t say the sensation was pleasant.

It was exhilarating.

I likened the experience to having a sports massage done on overworked muscles. It did hurt a little, and a spot or two pinched, but afterward…I felt great! My teeth sparkled and shone, and I had breath fresh enough to freeze ice cream. Yummy.

Will I go again?  Absolutely. I even made my appointment in advance.
