Journey to the West Dentist [Part II]
Dentists are loan sharks in disguise. I forgot to mention in [Part I], e first session cost me 58 bucks... AND it cost me another 58 bucks for e 2nd session!!! THAT'S NOT ALL. He arranged a 3rd session (hopefully it’s going to be e final chapter to my journey to e dentist) next saturday...

Think he likes me... Nah, must be e money. Awww.
Everything begins when he pokes my teeth using e "cavity detector machine" to reflect e state of decaying im in. He explains "if there's decaying, e machine will go beep beep beep beep beep!" After he's done with e poking, which took at least 10 minutes, I swear that I heard e machine beeped 90% of e time.
Think I should jus pull out all my teeth and replace them with fake ones.
Anyway, not understanding e seriousness of e beeping, I jokingly ask “does this means my whole mouth is rotting?” As usual, he misses e funny part and answers me seriously “it’s pretty possible u noe. It’s all abt discovering it at e early stage n do something before it worsens.” He pauses and writes something on my record card n den continues “ok I’ll fill up 5 for u. 2 today and 3 during e next session.”
Think I got cancer. But lucky it’s in e early stage… so I need an op?
“Actually your 2 wisdom tooth at e back need fillings too… but we wait half a yr later when we r sure tat your 2 wisdom tooth is here to stay, meaning they will not give u problems tat will result in pulling them out… then we shall fill them up too k”
Think this affirms that I should get fake teeth.
