“The tears ran down his swollen cheeks as he tried to speak. “It’s nothing personal, I’m just afraid of dentists.”
“There’s no need to be afraid. Dentists are here to help not hurt.”
“Wait, before you give me the needle can we loosen the straps?”
“We can’t do that.“
Trying to loosen himself he said “I’ve never been to a dentist that used straps.”
“And you still haven’t, Now open up.”
