It’s your first time. As you lay back your muscle tightened. You put him off for a while searching for an excuse. He refused to be swayed and approaches you. He ask if you are afraid and you shake your head bravery.
He has had more experiences, but it is the first time his fingers has found the right place. He probes deeply and you shiver. Your body tensed, but he is gentle like he promised he would be.
He looks deeply within your eyes and tells you to trust him.. He’s done this many time before. His cool smile relaxes you as you open for him wider to give him more room for an easy embrace. You begin to plead and beg him to hurry, but he slowly takes his time, wanting to cause you as little pain as possible.
As he preses closer, going deeper, you feel the tissues give way; pain surges throughout your body and you feel the slight trickleas he continues. He looks at you concerned and asked if its too painful.
Your eyes are filled with tears but you shake your head and nod for him to go on. He begins going in and out with skills but you are now too numb to feel him within you.
After a few moment, you feel something bursty within you and he pulls it out of you. You lay panting, glad to have it over.
He looks at you and smiles warmly, tells you with a chuckle, that you have been his most sturbbon , yet most rewarding experience. You smile and thank your DENTIST. After all, it was your FIRST TIME to have your tooth pulled.
