I’m afraid of the dentist. Always have been, for as 1 long as I can remember. Even 2 if the dentist is really, really kind and gentle 3, I’m still afraid. Even if the dental 4 surgery 5 is colourful 6 and there’s relaxing 7 music, I’m still afraid. Dentists for me haven’t changed a bit 8. When I was 9 a child, I hated 10 the sound of the drill 11. That sound is still there today. When I was young, I hated the smell. Same smell today. I can’t wait for the day scientists 12 invent 13 something so we never need dentists. The strange 14 thing is, when I was younger 15, I wanted to be a dentist. I thought 16 it would 17 be good to treat 18 people just like me. I felt I would understand others 19 who have the same fear 20. I think I would have been a good dentist.
