Comment on Guess Where I Went Today? by Touch2Touch

Not to be sexist — but in my experience women dentists have a VERY light and gentle touch.
My childhood dentist — a type like yours — was a cousin, so there was no choice where we would go. And like you, I was left with issues for years, until we went to my husband’s dentist, his since childhood, and gradually I got over it. He too was very patient.
