Yay for dentists!

I went to the dentist today...well lets rewind. I went to the dentist six months ago. Before going I was a little worried because I hadn't been in about two years. Since we knew we'd be moving I picked a dentist in Kaysville straight out of the phone book. z went with me, it was shortly after the baby was born. I walked into this dentist office and it was like walking into the 70's. Their office was this cramped little dump and all their equipment was out of date. The dental hygienist was some crazy guy with 7 kids and messed up teeth. The day before going I had sworn never to have another picture taken of me....what do you know. He wanted a picture of me and a bunch of pictures of my teeth that he had me hold these crazy metal things to hold my mouth open with so he could take pictures. The whole thing was miserable. Then walks in the dentist. He's got these hairy arms like a monkey and a big hairy mole on his face. Dark hair and tons of cologne. He reminded me of a discusting porn star on a show like SNL or Mad TV. Then this awesome dentist pulls out a laser to check my teeth for cavities. What do you know...every single tooth in my head has a cavity. Some of my teeth had already had feelings in them, the rest he would have to do extensive dental work to fix them. Also two of my teeth were broken. Luckily the baby started crying at the end just in time to not have to reschedule. We got out of there as fast as we could and z told me next time I should go to his dentist.

So back to today...we went to the dentist today and first off, it was a much nicer office. The staff was nice, there was more than one dental hygenist, the dentist didn't look discusting, and guess what...I have one broken tooth. That is the extent of my dental problems. So now, all these hours later I'm still sitting here absolutely discusted that the first dentist would have happily tore up my mouth to the point where I would probably end up with dentures sooner rather than later, when I have only one broken tooth! I'm really mad that there really are this type of horrible dentists out there!

Mental note to all...if you decide to see a dentist in Kaysville, stay away from Dr. Douglas Kimball!!!!!!! I wish I knew how to report him so he would loose his license!

That is hilarious! I would have RAN once I saw the dentist. How do you politely excuse yourself while sitting in the chair? LOL. I'm glad you found a better dentist.
