Gas for a cleaning Phal. I thought I had it bad. I had gas when I was about 18 to get a tooth pulled and apparently I kicked and punched at the dentist. He didn't pull the tooth and I didn't remember a thing.
Glad you made it through it.
No go and eat some delicious chocolate and stain those pearly whites.
As far as good dentist stories, I read one in Penthouse once but I think it was made up.
