I've never been afraid of the dentist, although I can't say it's the highlight of my week when I have to go. I was recently able to find out how **** my old dentist was though.

Back in Canada I had the same dentist since I was born pretty much, and visiting was always associated with copious amount of pain even when under anesthetic(he was about as adept with the needle as with the drill).

After moving to Switzerland I got a dentist who was in his 80s and still practicing. I had to get several cavities filled, and the first time he started drilling without anesthetic I was like "Oh ****!!". Turns out it barely hurt at all and it was actually a pleasant experience in comparison to past experiences. Too bad he died last year... Have to find a new dentist and hope they aren't crap.
