I too like my dentist. To begin with, he is a good man and a very good dentist. He has the modern tools and has a soothing picture show on a large computer screen to give me something to focus on. They have a very organized system. A hygienist makes sure my teeth are clean and my breath smells nice A tech does the preliminaries before the doc comes in and then assists him when it's time to get down to work. He is very concerned about avoiding pain and discomfort as much as possible. And to top it off he gives me a professional courtesy fee because he knows I have no dental insurance and not much money. There is very little anxiety which is odd considering I'm a virtual prisoner and two people are sticking their fingers and sharp pointed objects in my mouth. I consider myself lucky.
