Science of Dentistry
Surgeon 1: WHAT! These are your Milk teeth … Where are your Permanent teeth
Me: errr ….. How would I know [with a big grin]
Surgeon 1: Its NOT Funny!
Me: :-(
Surgeon 1: I will extract both of them
Me: Ok [As if he just asked me my world]
Surgeon 1 …. Takes out a lot of tools most of them are straight from Frankenstein … Opens my mouth with as many tools as the number of teeth I have!
And Finally, AAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!!
Surgeon 1: See you next Sunday, we will need three surgeons to fix ur dentures
Me: Umm Ummh [Stuffed with Cotton], but my eyes were wide enough to express my feelings
Sunday ….
Surgeon 2: I am an Orthodontist ….
Me: Thanks for informing me …. I am a S/W Engineer
Surgeon 2: That’s immaterial to me. I will have to Correct the alignment of your Teeth
Me: Ok. Why would I need that? I have got all of them inside the mouth. Nothing attached to the face [another big grin]
Surgeon 2 … Did not respond … this guy was serious as a stone
Surgeon 2: You need to get a 3-D x-ray, I will see you next Sunday
Me: [And I thought x-rays are 2-D]
Very soon went to the x-ray room, I was put inside a machine, I felt like I am analysing the anatomy of a Robot. Soon something rotated around my head
X-ray guy: Done Sir…
Sunday again…
Reached his clinic at 10.
Soon, "Come In", I gave the "3-D" x-ray to him
Surgeon 2: Looking at the x-ray we have 50-50 chances of fixing ur teeth
Me: Keeps Quite …. [Great! Now you are telling me this]
Surgeon 2: Lie Down!
Me soon followed the instructions …
Surgeon 2: Sheela [assistant], we need a mouth impression
Me: Quite again … [Don’t tell me you are making a Duplicate mouth for me]
Assistant soon comes with a pink paste, which she forces into my mouth with the help of metal spoons!!!! I was now mouth full of I don’t know what and something that tasted like stale food !
Thank God ! She removed it before I actually puked!
Surgeon 2: Lie down
Puts a plastic frame in my mouth which opened my mouth wide enough for two jet planes to pass by simultaneously. He kept doing something in my mouth for sometime, which I was least interested in, all I was waiting for was that frame to be removed!!
After half an hour …
Surgeon 2: I have fixed some attachment in your mouth
Me: (Still with the frame in) … ummmmm ummmm
He removes the frame and says …
Surgeon 2: You can now have a look at the mirror
Me soon screamed: BRACES !!!!!!!
Surgeon 2: Yeah that’s the only tool we Orthodontists have!!!
Me: Yeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaak!!!!
Finally had no choice, returned back home ….. Great now I look like Frankenstein myself !!!!
Surgeon 3 …. Yet to see him … will see him in the next appointment ... will update you with it
Me: errr ….. How would I know [with a big grin]
