I Need A Dentist.

My son has been having a toothache the past two days. He needs some filling for that as I can see a hole in his tooth. This will be his first time for filling. He is not really a fan of dentists. He had several prophylaxis before but he does not fancy the drilling sound when his sister was having a filling. I think it frightens him up. I just hope to find a good dentist that can also handle him. Do you like to go to the dentist?

I think that nobody likes to go to the dentist. Good luck to your son.

If your son is still very young, I think the solution is not filling the cavity but extracting the tooth because a permanent tooth will still grow to replace it.

He is already 12. I think it is a big chance of having it filled than extracting

@rakski I guess the dentist would know better whether it’s best to do a filling or just extract the tooth.

I never like the dentist. Never was and never will. They always scare me.

@rakski true. Back then I only went to government dentist. They poke and probe without caring whether we're in pain or not. That's how I develop my fear towards them.

I’d rather give birth than go to a dentist, but it’s a necessary evil. I hope you find a compassionate dentist.

I heard that you managed to find a dentist so that's good. We both went to the dentist last week.

I don't think going to the dentist is anyone's favorite. It's painful, uncomfortable, but necessary. Hurts the wallet too, at times especially if there are extra work that needs done.

I don't think there is one person in the world who enjoys a visit to the dentist
