Remember when you were a kid and you had a loose tooth? You waited and waited for it to naturally fall out but it didn’t happen. Until finally, after weeks of waiting, mum decided to take matters into her own hands. A string, and someone to pull hard at it – those were all she needed to finally yank out the wobbly tooth. You didn’t question mum about this decision. In fact, you were pretty excited about it as you couldn’t wait to get the tooth out. You just wanted to put it under your pillow for the tooth fairy.
Now that you’re an adult, if your dentist says you need to have your tooth extracted you’d probably be full of doubts and have tons of questions. And you’d most likely find nothing amusing about this ordeal you have to go through.
