I'm in the dentist's waiting room

Our hygienist seems to be lovely young woman but even so must have a bit of the sadist about her
She always makes me laugh when I am hanging on to some suction contraption or other that she has bunged into my mouth.

We were at a Museum cafe one Sunday morning and a young couple both ate a packet of crisps and drank a fizzy drink whilst waiting for their bacon butty to be prepared . I found it very sad that at such a young age they were on the path to ill health and possible mobility problems, as they were already obese.

I am not a slim thing myself, before I am bombarded with complaints about making 'fatist' remarks, but at least I make an effort not to binge.

Sorry I gave gone off piste a bit Kitty.

Kitty, that woman was being gross, irresponsible and other negative terms.

You, on the other hand were taking sensible steps to avoid food wastage, plus reducing the amount that might go into landfill.

I can only imagine the personal sacrifice that went into that action, and salute you for your selfless attitude.

I see the hygienist regularly and I had an appointment today. For a fifteen minute appointment I paid £45. ?

My dentist has never sent me to the hygienist. DH thinks I must bribe him as I always come back with a clean bill of health, while he, who cares for his teeth far better than I do, gets sent to the hygienist on a regular basis. He hates it. ? I suppose my turn will come eventually.

I don't mind the dentist but hate going to the hygienist. She's always horrible to me in a vaguely passive aggressive manner. Eg making comments to the nurse like 'ooh we can all tell when we've hit a tender part in Jane's mouth can't we? She's a great one for making faces!' Grrrrr just when I can't speak.

hope you have those inter-dental brushes handy for a quick clean (preferably in the sitting room).

To be fair, I've just come home and finished off yesterday's toffee roulade thereby undoing the good work done by the hygienist!

Yuuukk!!!

Blimey!

Perhaps she is seeing the hygienist and thinks 'oh well, she/he will have to jolly well earn their money today'



hope her teeth don't dissolve from the coke before she sees anyone.

Comfort eating? Stress busting?

Just before seeing the dentist?||
