The Dentist!!!
Yes, I know its crazy talk, I love going to the dentist. I'm not entirely sure why or how this happened, but I thoroughly enjoy myself at the dentist. I don't like going to the regular Doctor so much. My theory is that a doctor will always tell you there is something wrong, whereas a dentist won't. I've never had a cavity, and I don't have perfectly straight teeth, but I have incredibly healthy teeth. I'm like a dream to the dentist. I floss daily, which by the way everyone should do to prevent cavities between the teeth, I use mouth wash daily and of course I brush daily.
It is strange though here in America when you go to the dentist as opposed to back home in Australia. Back home the actual dentist does all the work, the cleaning and the flossing and what not and the dental assistant does that awful suction thing and hands over the instruments. Well, here in the States the dental hygienist (I'm assuming that's the title), they do all the work. They do the flossing, the cleaning, the suction thing and then get the dentist to pretty much check to make sure everything is OK. The actual Dentist comes in and makes sure you don't have cavities and to check the X-rays. So in Australia the Dentist actual does all the work and gets paid correctly, whereas here the Dentist doesn't do all the work but still gets paid more money. Hmmm....
Anyhow, it has been noted that I need to have my wisdom teeth removed, its not a dire situation or anything, it has just been noted and I have been informed that it would be better if they came out. Thing is its pretty pricy to have something removed like that. Anyhow... I'll figure something out on that front.
-- So even though mum you hate the dentist I LOVE IT!!
