"Dental update"

Hi 👋 hope alls braw n you’re havin an ace start to the week 🙏

So, I’m about to be back for my six monthly check up and I realise that I’ve not told you of my last visit!

Was a biggie too, a deep pocket clean. I was told it can be a big job, usually done in two stages and involves getting numbed up! 😱

On arrival, I was greeted by our man with the foldie glassies, made welcome and reassured that everything would be hunky dory.

The lovely ladies at reception checked me in and within a few minutes I was called.

Bright young student greeted me and already had her name, mine and a whole load of letters and numbers on the white board.

These correlated with my teeth and indicated which ones needed what doing.

Whilst during all this being explained to me, I got wind of the fact that some people manage to get this procedure done without the needle and getting numbed up.

I chose this option, even after it was explained that this is not the norm, but I could stop and change my mind at any point.

Our man came back in and explained everything again making sure I was sure and reassured me I could stop at any point if I changed my mind.

So I settled back and the young student got started.

After a few seconds, she stops n asks if I’m ok…. 😁👍

she carry’s on and stops again.

ok? 😁👍

I heard our man stick his head through the door a couple times and whisper - is he ok? 🙏

The stops got less frequent and the young student got on with it 💪 now asking me if I’m ok after each tooth.

Long story short, she did my whole mouth in two back to back appointments and I cannot thank her enough for all the care, compassion and effort it took to do that 💪

Once again they were all absolutely brilliant and thank you so very much for looking after my teeth for me 😁👍

Gratitude 🙏
