| - Let's get something straight: dentists and doctors are scary. Really f*cking scary. They rank on the scary scale right above Satan. But below clowns. Because clowns make even Satan poop his hell-bound pants. They're really evil. But dentists get right below clowns.
So when I had to go to the dentist, I would rather have gone 12 rounds with a early 1990s Mike Tyson bareknuckle than go to the dentist. But away I went to Just Smiles.
The first time I went, they were polite, and explained nicely what they had to do, and they assured me they were going to be as gentle as possible.
Yeah, right. Everyone says that on the first visit, because they want your business. Let's see how they are on the second time around.
Well, I just got back, and just as I suspected, the second time around, they were... well... still nice.
WHAT??? I KNOW!!
They were all very concerned that I was feeling okay. I told them dentists get me all freaked out, to the point where I shake (and this from someone who routinely gets punched in the face). But they reassured me every step of the way, that they were going to do their best to be gentle and keep me calm. They explained what they were doing and they were really nice. And when it comes to dentists, if they can soothe my nerves, that's points in my book.
They were really good about taking my insurance, and flexible with my schedule.
Now, let's not lie. It still hurt, and overall I was still nervous, but the crew at Just Smiles are a step in the right direction.
