Dreaded Drill

With my early trips to the dentist and the natural loss of my baby teeth having sparked an interest in dentistry before I really knew what being a dentist meant, I began shadowing to further explore the profession. As I watched a tooth take shape from a blob of acrylic under the experienced hand of the dentist I was shadowing, I was filled with the same awe and satisfaction that I gain from the piano. Dr. Aboud repeatedly positioned the temporary crown in the patient’s mouth, checked his bite, and painstakingly continued to adjust the crown until the fit was just right. Though I have wanted to be a dentist for almost as long as I have played the piano, my interest in dentistry grew

“The dentist couldn’t find any problem, but Lemon kept insisting, so the man finally shrugged and shot in the Novocain and yanked out a perfectly good tooth. There was some pain, no doubt, but in the morning Curt Lemon was all smiles.” (O’Brien pg. 84)

There are many causes of dental phobia and reasons why individuals just do not want to visit the dentist bi-yearly for an exam or even for further procedures. While a lot of causes are unknown, there are some that are more obvious. Some people have a generalized fear of pain. This is a very common reason for an individual to skip the dentist office altogether. This reason of phobia is usually caused by an unpleased or painful previous dental experience or from someone else’s story about their negative experiences. An article from Web MD called Easing Dental Anxiety in Adults states, “Thanks to the many advances in dentistry made over the years, most of today’s dental procedures are considerably less painful or even pain-free” (2016).. A second cause behind some people’s dental phobia is fear of injections or fear of injection failure. The majority people are very afraid of needles. This fear increases when it involves needles inserted into their oral cavity. (Colgate, 2016). Some people even fear that the anesthesia has failed and it did not relieve them of their pain before the dental treatment begins. Along with the fear of injections comes the fear of anesthetic side effects. Some individuals dread the side effects that anesthesia is likely to cause, such as dizziness, nausea, and feeling faint. Others do not like the loss of feeling they experience in their oral cavity. A third cause of dental phobia is the feeling of helplessness and loss of control. People

Dentistry has always been on my mind ever since I watched the Pixar film, “Finding Nemo.” Finding Nemo was the first time I ever witnessed a dentist in action, and although it was quite traumatizing because of how the patient was screaming in the chair and how Pixar decided to use a little girl, who wore an intimidating style of braces and hurt fishes on her free time, as one of the antagonists in the film, I was curious to know what was happening in that chair that the director did not want the audience to see. Despite this, the combination of these negative portrayals in Finding Nemo did not make a dental office my most favourite place in the world; however, my opinion soon changed when I met my first dentist, Dr. Le.

The distinctive sound in the dentist's office coupled with its slightly sweet antiseptic smell has long been a source of anxiety for many people. Ask almost anyone and they will tell you stories much like the one of my grandmother, who was never given treatment for her pain. Instead, she was treated only with silver nitrate on the decayed areas to deaden the nerve endings. However this did not heal the decay. Perhaps instead they would tell of a time when their dentist, who had just received his new high-speed drill, insisted that there was no need for Novocaine. Along with new problems such as dentists infecting their patients with HIV, the negative side of dentistry has increasingly been in the

The United States Marine Corps recruiter may not have promised me a rose garden, but she did say my time in the service would help me become a more productive member of society; she was not lying. The Marine Corps provided 13 years of varied job experience that would not have been obtainable as a civilian. Although I developed many skills while serving in the military, I believe integrity, accountability, and a positive work ethic were the most important at preparing me for my role in the private sector.

“Security isn’t so much a problem in the school, but this is another precaution that we can take,” says Pat Gallagher, an American physicist and the eighteenth chancellor of the University of Pittsburgh. The run/fight and lockdown drills would not work in some situations, when gunmen come into the school or try to break in. Woodlynde needs a security guard to protect the children and teachers while they try to run away from school or hide inside the rooms. This is why Woodlynde needs security guards and not just the safety drills inside Woodlynde’s protection routine.

Every amateur DIY homeowner and professional contractor should own a cordless drill. A cordless drill will give the user much greater movement and flexibility. Certainly, the ability to move freely and unencumbered is very attractive. The fact is that a cordless drill is a real work-horse. The device drills holes of various sizes and drives screws of various sizes into a wide variety of materials. Simply keep the battery charged and your cordless drill will provide plenty of drilling power through a number of household projects.

Below, Dr. Stephen Leidenheimer and his fellow associates explain why it’s a great idea to visit an all-in-one dentist:

No matter what your feelings are about going to the dentist, there's one aspect we can all agree we despise: the drill. Luckily there's new technology in dental work that helps avoid this loud and painful dental procedure. It's called air abrasion! Haven't heard of it? That's because a lot of dentists haven't branched out and embraced this technology, but the people in Kalispell, MT, are in for a treat. Greenery Park Dentistry believes in "Technology For Your Benefit." Ronald Davis, the lead dentist at Greenery Park Dentistry, continues to add new ways of making their services relaxing and comfortable, and air abrasion is just one of the innovations he has incorporated into his practice.

While cordless drills are very useful in part thanks to their portability, there are still tasks that require more power than the power corded drill.
