I had a cleaning this morning. I was way less nervous than at other times, for three main reasons:
1) It's right on my way to work, which means both I knew how to get there and I knew exactly how to time it so I got to work on time.
2) The dentist did not harass me about hygiene. I comprehend that dentists do have to come at you about hygiene, but the tone really matters. I did not appreciate the sense of personal slight I kept getting off the last dentist.
3) [Personal reasons.]
She advised that I get an electric toothbrush, so I got a battery-powered one for now, and will investigate costs of rechargeable batteries versus an electric toothbrush.
All in all, no doom at all.
