A frightening dental experience11 total reviews
Comment from Nicki.B
Oh goodness me the dreaded dentist. I really like what you have done with this, bringing through the full story from start to finish, all the different emotions and thoughts (mostly fear and dread). It gave me the heebie jeebies even thinking about the denist. Brilliant poem, you did a great job. I got a good old giggle aswell.
Best Wishes

This is a funny story and I think most people can relate to it. The dentist chair is not my favorite place and I have had a few rough dentist along the way.
Did this experience ruin going to the dentist office for you?
Well done and good luck in the contest.

This is fun.
It tells a great story of something, most of us fear most of any health procedures.
Ugh. The Dentist visit.
Thank you for sharing this vision, you have adequately refued my nightmares with new material.

Hah, Paul!
I'm with you!
I'd rather give birth than sit through a dental procedure - even a cleaning!
Have experienced so many horrific situations with dentists and oral surgeons; thus, your well-crafted poetic offering truly resonate with me!
Thank you for sharing!
fondly,

Wow, Paul. I'm glad I have a six star left to award for this creative, yet fearful visit to a novice dentist.
There were many lines that gave me a chuckle
Especially when he tightened the seat belt buckle,
Thanks for a fun early morning read.
Cheers,
John

This is so creative and clever. As one who fears only two things in my life, the wife and the dentist, I understand your message. I had a smile on my face throughout this poem. I hope you forwarded a copy of this to your dentist.

A delightful poem that highlights the fears many of us have when attending the dentist. Good rhyming and I must admit having a smile on my face as you were "attacked". It seems you came out the worst for the experience.
All the best for the competition. Take care and have a wonderful day.

You made me laugh with this humorous horror story poem. I think I would change dentist offices quickly. I wouldn't know why a body piercing compliment would change her demeanor but I wouldn't argue with someone armed with so much metal. Best wishes in the contest!

This will take everyone to that dental chair, open wide, don't move, swallow this. Best not to try and talk, a mouthful of water prevents any noise, prevents any complaints. Stare at the ceiling, wait for the end. Pay a handsome amount before you leave, you are scheduled for another cleaning in six months, Next.

Can't believe anyone likes going to the dentist. Had my share of death in a dental chair.
